RESUMO
Se revisaron las historias clínicas de todos los pacientes con trasplante hepático atendidos en el Centro Especializado San Vicente Fundación entre enero de 2013 y junio de 2017, para determinar la frecuencia de síndrome metabólico (SM) postrasplante. En instrumento validado se registraron datos sociodemográficos, antecedentes patológicos, antecedentes toxicológicos, complicaciones y criterios ATP III. Se utilizó OpenEpi 3,01 para análisis estadístico; se consideró significancia estadística con p<0,05. De 102 historias clínicas revisadas, se analizaron 73 que cumplieron criterios de inclusión (sin diagnóstico de SM pretrasplante y con información completa para el instrumento). La mayoría de los pacientes eran hombres (59%), adultos mayores (64%) y casados (62%). La frecuencia de SM postrasplante fue 66%; hubo asociación significativa entre SM y antecedentes de hipertensión arterial y diabetes. Se confirma que el SM es una complicación frecuente de los trasplantados hepáticos y los antecedentes de hipertensión y diabetes son los factores asociados más frecuentes.
The medical records of all liver transplant patients attended at the Centro Especializado San Vicente Fundación between January 2013 and June 2017 were reviewed in order to determine the frequency of post-transplant metabolic syndrome (MS). We collected sociodemographic data, pathological history, toxicological history, complications, and ATP III criteria in a validated instrument. The statistical analysis was carried out with OpenEpi 3.01; p<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Of the 102 reviewed medical records, 73 met the inclusion criteria (no MS diagnosis prior to transplant and complete information for the instrument) and were analyzed. Most patients were male (59%), older adults (64%) and married (62%). The frequency of MS after liver transplant was 66%. The association between MS and history of hypertension and diabetes was significant. We confirmed that MS is a frequent complication in liver transplant recipients and that history of hypertension and diabetes are the most frequent associated factors.

OBJECTIVES.: Motivation for the study: there is a lack of studies in Latin America on the frequency of metabolic syndrome in patients who receive liver transplants. Main findings: two-thirds (66%) of patients who received liver transplantation between 2013 and 2017 at the Specialized Center San Vicente Fundación de Rionegro, Antioquia, Colombia, subsequently presented metabolic syndrome. Implications: this study confirms that liver transplant recipients very frequently develop metabolic syndrome; however, the frequency found by this study (66%) was almost double that reported in other regions of the world, suggesting that patients from the Specialized Center San Vicente Fundación de Rionegro, Antioquia, Colombia, may present some additional condition.
