I conducted health survey to know factors significantly associated with metabolic syndrome(MetS). The target subjects are 3, 054 occupational workers aged 34-64 years without any of the following problems ; insomnia, having medication with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, cardio-vascular disease, hyperuricemia. By logistic regression analysis, serum insulin was the strongest predictor of Mets, followed by liver enzymes, uric acid, and non-smoking. Shift work and sleeping time were not selected as significant contributors for MetS.
