Over the last few years, the understanding of metabolic syndrome has advanced in a number of directions. This book provides an update on the current status of the understanding of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in children and adults. There is particular focus on childhood precursors of the disorder (fetal, perinatal, and childhood factors) since this is an area of great promise for prevention of future expansion of the epidemic. The book is divided into three major sections - epidemiology, pathophysiology, and intervention (both pharmacologic and lifestyle) in both adults and children.
