(A) In this chart metabolic syndrome was defined as having 3 of 5 components. (B) In this chart metabolic syndrome was defined without the waist component.

Area under curve with 95% confidence interval.
In the three top bars MeS was defined with its five components. In the bottom bars MeS was defined with four components and waist was excluded from the MeS diagnostic criteria.
