Although continuous values of metabolic syndrome risk scores (cMetS) has been suggested for modeling the association between potential risk factors and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in young people, the construct validity of cMetS has not been sufficiently examined in a representative sample of youngsters. This study examined: (i) sex and race/ethnic-specific optimal cut-off points of cMetS that are associated with MetS and (ii) the construct validity of cMetS in 12- to 19-year old non-Hispanic white (NHW), non-Hispanic black (NHB), and Mexican-American (MA) subjects.
