About this trial

The metabolic syndrome population is at high-risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. How to effectively control the risk factors of this population is the key to primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes in China. This study aims to explore the efficacy and safety of an intervention strategy with berberine that can effectively treat a variety of risk factors (hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients diagnosed with metabolic syndrome aged 40-75 years old.

Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the Chinese Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Dyslipidemia in Adults (revised edition 2016). Subjects will be diagnosed with metabolic syndrome when meeting three or more of the following items: 1, central obesity and/or abdominal obesity (waist circumference ≥90cm for men and ≥ 85cm for women); 2, hyperglycemia (fasting blood glucose ≥6.10 mmol/L or two-hour blood glucose ≥7.80 mmol/L in glucose tolerance test); 3, hypertension: blood pressure ≥130/85 mmHg and/or diagnosed hypertension under treatment; 4, fasting triglyceride ≥1.7 mmol/L (150mg/dl); 5, fasting HDL cholesterol<1.0 mmol/L.

Disqualifiers

Previously diagnosed diabetes.

Baseline LDL cholesterol≥130mg/dl (3.4mmol/L).

Baseline triglyceride≥500mg/dl (5.6mmol/L).

Baseline blood pressure ≥140/90 mmHg (twice not on the same day).
