Abstract
Raising trend of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in developing countries created a platform for exploring the sociodemographic nexus in search of underlying cause. The precise aim of the study is to detect any possible association of social determinants and metabolic derangement with CVDs risk, particularly focusing on comparative analysis of the data to decipher the most significant factor(s), if any among the studied parameters contributing toward prediction of such cardiometabolic risk in linked with insulin resistance. In the present study, it was found that 2% of the studied population had high risk, and 13.3% had intermediate risk of developing cardiovascular events in next 10 years. Results also showed that estimated CVD risk was significantly higher in males with central obesity and age more >60 years as key determinants showing more insulin resistance at lower cut-off. This study also strongly suggests need to revise the cut-off values for HOMA index in defining insulin resistance to rural population with active the life style and need of redefining new targeted preventive health care planning.
