Metabolic syndrome is a common disorder in Taiwan. For this study 431 subjects were randomly selected from visitors to the Department of Health Management. Blood pressure, blood glucose, lipid, uric acid levels and anthropometric measurements with immunoreactive insulin (IRI) and leptin levels were all correlated. We randomly selected 431 subjects who visited the Department of Health Management. Whole body three-dimensional (3-D) laser scanner scans were employed for the anthropometric measurements. The metabolic index (MI) was designed using anthropometric parameters. Of the 431 subjects, 50% had displayed a body mass index (BMI) equal to or exceeding 25 kg/m2. Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis revealed that MI constituted another index for correlating metabolic parameters by comparing MI with BMI and waist circumference to hip circumference ratio (WHR). Most data related to metabolic syndrome showed statistically significant differences between high and low IRI groups, comprising uric acid, total cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose, triglyceride, LDL, Chol/HDL ratio, and LDL/HDL ratio. Both IRI and leptin revealed statistical association with BMI, WHR, waist cross section area to hip cross section area ratio (WHAR), and MI in the study. Hypercholesterolemia appeared in 14.6% of the subjects. Elevated low-density lipoprotein (> or = 130 mg/dL) affected 36.9% of the subjects. In conclusion, MI calculated from 3-D body scanner correlated with many important metabolic risk factors and associated with clinical disorders like DM, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia and hypertension.
