Publisher Description
Although Dr. Scott Grundy assures us that the Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) version of the metabolic syndrome is still alive (1), the real question is whether its continued existence provides us with any useful information. Just being alive is not enough, for as Sportiri Life points out in Gershwin s Porgy and Bess, "Methuselah lived 900 years, but who calls it living, when no gal will give in, to him that's 900 years." Does Diagnosing the Metabolic Syndrome Have Clinical Utility?
