The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Taiwan has been increasing yearly. In this project, the database of blood test results from healthy and metabolic syndromes individuals will be analyzed to identify the small molecules related to the severity of metabolic syndrome. These identified small molecules could be used as biomarkers to predict the development of metabolic syndromes in the future.
