Introduction. Metabolic syndrome (MS) is defined as coexistence of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. It is estimated that people with MS are more likely to undergo acute coronary events. Aim of the study. The aim of the research is to answer whether SCORE is a good method of assessing the risk of death due to cardiovascular cause among patients with MS. Material and methods. The potential risk was estimated on the basis of SCORE among 81 patients hospitalized in the Ward of Internal Medicine, Metabolic Disorders and Hypertension. On the basis of IDF 2005 criteria it turned out that there are 59 patients with MS. The remaining group of 22 patients accounted for control group. Results. According to statistics there was no relevant diff...
