Abstract
Hyperinsulinemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and coronary artery disease comprise a quartet known as Syndrome X. This syndrome was first described in adults, but has recently been described in children and adolescents. The purpose of our study was to determine if diet or exercise is able to change the clinical profile of Syndrome X in children.
