The purpose of this cross-sectional study is to determine the prevalence of MetS according to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the last harmonizing MetS criteria in adult individuals of both sexes from San José de Cúcuta, Colombia, a medium- size city belonging to the North of Santander Department, with a population of 587.676 inhabitants according to the 2005 census information conducted by the National Statistic Administrative Department (DANE) with a projection by 2017 of 662.765 persons. Likewise, DANE projects that 68.5% (454.077 hab) of Cucutan population will be over 18 years by 2017, so that, using these data, the sample size for San José de Cúcuta is 2200 adult persons for a 95% confidence interval and a maximum accepted sampling error of 5%. Data derived from both, medical and laboratory examina - tion (smoking habit, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, al - cohol consumption, nutritional habits, physical activity by IPAQ, blood pressure, anthropometry, and blood chemis - try and endocrinology panel) will be conducted by trained health professionals and medical students. There is a clear lack of evidence regarding the prevalence of cardio-metabolic risk factors and local cut-off points for biological quantitative variables i.e. abdominal circumfer - ence, body mass index, fasting insulin, Homeostasis Model Assessment, among others. In the near future, this study will contribute for new evidence, providing first hand accu - rate evidence about MetS behavior in our country. 2015 artículo científico 1856-4550 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=170249662001 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1702 Revista Latinoamericana de Hipertensión application/pdf Sociedad Latinoamericana de Hipertensión Revista Latinoamericana de Hipertensión (República Bolivariana de Venezuela) Num.4 Vol.10
