Materials and Methods: A total of 419 adults between the ages of 18-65 were included in this study. Body weight, height, waist, hip and waist circumference, and blood pressure were measured; fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol values were analyzed. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was defined using the International Diabetes Federation criteria. The values of 23 obesity-related indices were calculated. Results: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome is 58.7% (male 41.2%; female 67.7%). The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index has the largest area under the curve (AUC) in both men (AUC = 0.894, cutoff = 3.9) and women (AUC = 0.901, cutoff = 3.9). In men, lipid accumulation product (LAP) had the second highest determination for MetS (AUC = 0.880, cut-off = 51.1), followed by TyG-waist/hip (AUC = 0.876, cut-off = 3.7). Cardiometabolic index (CMI) (AUC = 0.872, cut-off value = 1.3) and visceral adiposity index VAI (AUC = 0.868, cut-off value = 4.1) had the second and third largest AUCs, respectively, in women. Conclusion: TyG index is the best predictor of MetS. Waist circumference could be an alternative index in large epidemiology survey due to its convenient and cost-efective characteristics.</dc:description><dc:publisher>CUKUROVA UNIV, FAC MEDICINE</dc:publisher><dc:date>2022</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/16772</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.17826/cumj.1002607</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>2602-3032</dc:identifier><dc:language>tr</dc:language><dc:relation>CUKUROVA MEDICAL JOURNAL</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/16772</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
