Methods 773 elderly people in the community were diagnosed for MS by the Chinese Medical Association Diabetes Society (CDS),International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and revised National Cholesterol Education Prongram-Adult Treatment Panel(ATP Ⅲ* ) criteria,respectively.The diagnosis accordance rates were compared among the different diagnostic criteria. Results The MS prevalence rates in the elderly were 32.5% (251/773),53.4% (413/773) and 47.2% (365/773) according to CDS,IDF and ATP Ⅲ* criteria,respectively and there were significant difference among the criteria (Q=173.10,P<0.01 ).The MS prevalence was higher in women than in men especially by IDF [57.3% (284/487)vs.45.1% (129/286),x2=12.64,P<0.01]and ATPⅢ* criteria [53.0%(258/487)vs. 37.4% (107/286),x2=17.52,P<0.01].The coincidences in the diagnosis of MS were 88.6% (Kappa=0.773,P<0.01)using IDF and ATPⅢ * definitions,75.7% using CDS and ATPⅢ *,and 73.7% using CDS and IDF.Conclusions The agreement in the diagnosis of MS using IDF and ATPⅢ* definitions is higher than using CDS and IDF or ATPⅢ * definitions.
