Resumen
The objective of the present research study was to analyze the relationship between the Chronotype and the Metabolic Syndrome in patients who attend the different care services of the General Enrique Garcés hospital, 2019. The hypothesis was based on the fact that patients with intermediate and evening chronotypes have a higher risk of presenting metabolic syndrome. The methodology used for this research project was a non-experimental cross-sectional study, whose variables were taken on a single occasion with a sample of 420 people, aged between 17 and 71 years, with a distribution of 56.9% for women. and 43.1% in the male population. The following questionnaires were used for the study; anthropometric and health questionnaire, morning and evening questionnaire from Horne and Ostberg, international physical activity questionnaire IPAC and R24H. While, to diagnose the presence of metabolic syndrome, the criteria according to Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III) were used. The statistical analysis was carried out with the SSPS version 24 program. Concluding that, the people with the highest incidence of suffering from metabolic syndrome are the people with intermediate chronotype of women aged between 37-64 years who carry out low-impact physical activity and have a high dietary intake. It is recommended that to carry out this type of study, it should be carried out in populations with homogeneous chronotypes to obtain better results. Furthermore, it is recommended that health personnel carry out campaigns on community awareness of this study topic.
