Abstract

Metabolic syndrome (MS) is increasing as obesity increases in Korea. In this study, we investigated the relationship between MS and gallbladder polyp (GBP). We examined 9,861 subjects who visited a single health-screening center in Jeju between January 2009 and December 2019. MS was defined according to the revised National Cholesterol Education Program criteria. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed after adjusting for age to evaluate the association between the components of MS and GBP. The estimated rates of MS and GBP among subjects were 28.5% and 4.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis suggested that MS (odds ratio[OR] 1.405, P=0.006) was the only independent factor affecting GBP. In our study sample, MS was correlated with GBP. The prevalence of gallbladder polyp increased with an increase in the risk factors indicating MS.
