Previous issue date: 2010-02-03 / Pontif?cia Universidade Cat?lica de Campinas / Metabolic Syndrome represents a group of risk factors which are metabolic in origin which can promote the development of cardiovascular diseases. According to criteria furnished by the National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) - Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) in 2001, the following characteristics are evident: Obesity (particularly abdominal obesity), i.e. the circumference of the waist: Men ? 102 cm (40 in) and Women ? 88 cm (35 in), elevated blood pressure (? 130/85), triglycerides ? 150, HDL cholesterol (men < 40 mg/dL and Women < 50 mg/dL) and fasting glucose > 110 mg/dL (including Diabetes Mellitus). The Metabolic Syndrome diagnosis is characterized by the presence of 3 out of 5 of these elements. This study evaluated the level of stress and the expression of anger (inward or outward) in women with metabolic syndrome. The study consisted of twenty patients with metabolic syndrome, in the 50 to 65 age bracket, coming from cardiology and endocrinology outpatient clinics at a university hospital in a city in upstate S?o Paulo. The patients were referred following diagnosis by their doctors. After referral, they underwent a psychological evaluation which was conducted by way of interview. In addition, the following tools were employed: Lipp s Stress Symptoms Inventory (ISSL); and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI). The interviews were conducted with each patient individually and lasted between 30 and 50 minutes, depending on the patient. Results showed that 75% of women presented stress in the exhaustion phase and 85% of these had a prevalence of psychological symptoms. As far as anger is concerned, a significant association was established between stress and trait anger and stress and anger reaction. Moreover, it was found that approximately 11 women presented a tendency to repress their anger inwards, i.e. they had difficulty in adequately expressing their anger. The results suggest the need for further studies that involve psychological treatment for stress, as the vast majority of the participants presented a high level of stress. / A S?ndrome Metab?lica (SM) representa um conjunto de fatores de riscos de origem metab?lica que podem promover o desenvolvimento de doen?as cardiovasculares. Segundo os crit?rios da National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) de 2001 est?o inclu?dos os seguintes componentes: obesidade (especialmente a obesidade abdominal), ou seja, a medida da circunfer?ncia abdominal:Homens ? 102 cm e Mulheres ? 88 cm, n?veis press?ricos elevados( ? 130/85), triglicer?deos ? 150, colesterol Hdl, para homens < 40 e para Mulheres < 50 e glicemia de jejum > 110 (incluindo Diabete mellitus).O diagn?stico de SM ? caracterizado pela presen?a de 3 dos 5 desses componentes. Este trabalho avaliou o n?vel de stress e a express?o da raiva (para fora ou para dentro) em mulheres com s?ndrome metab?lica. Foram estudadas 20 pacientes com s?ndrome metab?lica provenientes do ambulat?rio de cardiologia e de endocrinologia de um hospital universit?rio de um munic?pio do interior paulista, na faixa et?ria de 50 a 65 anos. As pacientes foram encaminhadas ap?s o diagn?stico dos m?dicos. Ap?s o encaminhamento passaram por uma avalia??o psicol?gica que foi realizada por meio de uma entrevista. Al?m disso,foram aplicados os seguintes instrumentos: Invent?rio de Sintomas de Stress de Lipp (ISSL); e o Invent?rio de Express?o de Raiva como Estado e Tra?o (S.T.A.X.I). A entrevista foi realizada individualmente com cada participante e teve dura??o de 30 a 50 min dependendo de cada paciente. Os resultados revelaram que 75% das mulheres apresentaram stress na fase de exaust?o, 85 % das que estavam em exaust?o tinham predomin?ncia de sintomas psicol?gicos. No que se refere a raiva verificou-se uma associa??o significativa entre stress e tra?o de raiva e stress e rea??o de raiva. Al?m disso, verificou-se que cerca de 11 mulheres apresentaram a tend?ncia a reprimir a raiva para dentro, ou seja, apresentavam dificuldades de expressar sua raiva de maneira adequada. Os resultados sugerem a necessidade de outros estudos que envolvam o tratamento psicol?gico para o stress, j? que a grande maioria das participantes apresentou um alto n?vel de stress.
