The calculator counts how many of five common cut-offs are met: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field. In the first example the result is 2 of 5 criteria.
The calculator is not a metabolic-syndrome diagnosis and not IDF with sex-specific HDL. The calculator counts how many of five common cut-offs are met: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field.
Enter data and click Calculate.
The calculator uses the numbers you enter. The calculator counts how many of five common cut-offs are met: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field. In the first example the result is 2 of 5 criteria.
The five form fields are Waist circumference, Triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, Systolic blood pressure, and Fasting glucose. Metabolic criteria means: This is the main result on this page. In the first example it is 2 of 5 criteria. Waist circumference means: The first form field. It enters the formula or sits beside the result. The calculator counts how many of five common cut-offs are met: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field. Triglycerides means: The second form field. The calculator is not a metabolic-syndrome diagnosis and not IDF with sex-specific HDL.
The second example gives 0 of 5 criteria. The third example gives 5 of 5 criteria. The calculator counts how many of five common cut-offs are met: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field. In the first example the result is 2 of 5 criteria.
The calculator is not a metabolic-syndrome diagnosis and not IDF with sex-specific HDL.
Enter 94, 135, 42, 125, 102, then click Calculate. A comma in 12.5 is read the same way as a period. Fields on a 0-10 scale are notes and are not the primary result unless this page formula says so.

HDL uses 40 mg/dL because sex is not a field. The second form field. The calculator is not a metabolic-syndrome diagnosis and not IDF with sex-specific HDL.
Yes. 12.5 and 12,5 are read the same way.
Five: waist at the unit threshold, triglycerides 150 mg/dL, HDL below 40 mg/dL, systolic pressure 130 mmHg, and fasting glucose 100 mg/dL. The result is how many are met.
Sex is not a field, so HDL uses 40 mg/dL. This is not full IDF with a sex-specific HDL cut-off.
No. The calculator is not a metabolic-syndrome diagnosis. It only shows how many of five numbers cross a common cut-off.
Triglycerides and HDL in mg/dL, glucose in mg/dL, pressure in mmHg, waist in the header unit.
Yes. The waist cut-off uses the metric or US header setting. The other cut-offs are in mg/dL and mmHg.
