title: Association between metabolic syndrome and lung function in middle-aged and elderly Chinese individuals.
abstract: Subjects with metabolic syndrome (MetS) had lower FVC and FEV1 than non-MetS subjects and decreased gradually with the increasing number of MetS components. After adjusting for potential risk factors, the lowest quartile of FVC and FEV1 was associated with increased risk of MetS.
