- W160260864 abstract "This chapter presents the life story of Dr. Gerald Reaven, how he became a physician and discovered Syndrome X, which is now more commonly referred to as Metabolic Syndrome. Jerry Reaven grew up without the slightest thought of becoming a physician. He was a ball player and wanted to join the school basketball team. He underwent a physical examination that was required to join the school basketball team which included a routine skin test for tuberculosis, and he tested positive. That is how, a turning point came into his life and he developed a passion for medicine in the last year of medical school. Reaven became more interested in diabetes in 1960 after a paper by Drs. Rosalyn Yalow and Solomon Berson blew the roof off diabetes research. The link between poor glucose control, hypertriglyceridemia, and heart attack became clearer after a 1963 study by Reaven and his coworkers at Stanford. In 1967, Reaven nailed down a major link between increased levels of insulin, hypertriglyceridemia, and increased risk for heart disease. Even after so much of resistance from the scientific world, Reaven kept on finding a possible relationship between hypertension and insulin resistance. Only in mid eighties, that his work was appreciated and accepted worldwide." @default.
