Resumen

La resistencia a la insulina y el estado inflamatorio crónico son la principal etiología del síndrome metabólico. La proteína C reactiva es un marcador potente de inflamación y de resistencia a la insulina; los niveles elevados de resistencia a la insulina pueden predecir en el paciente con síndrome metabólico, con o sin prediabetes (glucemia en ayunas alterada, tolerancia a la glucosa alterada o ambas), el desarrollo de una diabetes mellitus tipo 2 y de enfermedad cardiovascular. Por esta razón se recomienda incluir a la proteína C reactiva en el estudio del paciente con síndrome metabólico; una vez diagnosticado el estado inflamatorio se debe iniciar tratamiento con medicamentos que reduzcan los niveles de proteína C reactiva, y a la vez mejoren la sensibilidad a la insulina, así como recomendar cambios en el estilo de vida.
