    Abstract

    Background: Metabolic syndrome, identified as a global health crisis by WHO, affects 20 25% of the population, doubling the risk of death and tripling heart attack risk. Its prevalence is notably higher in those with psychiatric disorders, complicating treatment. Patients often exhibit metabolic abnormalities beyond central obesity, including hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia. Metabolic profiling, measuring metabolites' response to stimuli, offers insights into these conditions.
