| Sumario: | [eng] Introduction: Cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent pathologies throughout the world and cause great morbidity and mortality. Their genesis is influenced by different factors. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of sociodemographic variables and healthy habits on different cardiometabolic risk scales. Material and methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in 386924 Spanish workers. Cardiometabolic risk was assessed on the basis of metabolic syndrome, atherogenic risk determined by atherogenic indices and atherogenic dyslipidemia, heart age, and diabesity. The sociodemographic variables analyzed were age, gender, social class, and educational level. Physical activity, Mediterranean diet and tobacco consumption were assessed as healthy habits. Results: The mean values and the prevalence of elevated values of the different cardiometabolic risk scales were influenced by all the sociodemographic variables (especially age) and healthy habits studied (especially physical activity and Mediterranean diet). Conclusions: The risk profile of presenting cardiometabolic alterations would be an elderly male, low socioeconomic level, sedentary, with low adherence to the Mediterranean diet and smoker. |
