Introduction: Previous studies have suggested an association between cardiovascular disease and rosacea. However, there is still a paucity of data regarding its association with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Methods: The components of MetS were evaluated in 100 rosacea patients and 100 controls. Results: MetS was determined in 44% of the rosacea patients and 35% of the controls. Although the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.193), rosacea patients were more likely to have dyslipidaemia (p<0.001), insulin resistance (p=0.035), hypertension (p=0.009), higher atherogenic index (p<0.001) and a higher hypercoagulability (p=0.025) and inflammatory state (p=0.003) compared to controls. Conclusion: The results of this study support that rosacea patients should be screened routinely for the components of MetS such as dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance, hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors.
