The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components in a cohort undergoing forensic psychiatric investigation (FPI) in Sweden. As a substudy of a larger study of individuals who had committed violent crimes in Sweden, 106 participants undergoing forensic psychiatric investigation at the National Board of Forensic Medicine in Gothenburg were consecutively recruited; clinical characteristics were collected by forensic professionals from psychiatry, psychology, sociology, and nursing, while study-specific measurements (waist circumference and blood samples) were obtained by a research nurse. Metabolic syndrome criteria were assessed according to a joint scientific statement issued by several international health organizations. Of the cohort, 81% were male, the mean age was 38 years, and 32% of participants were assessed as meeting the criteria for a severe mental disorder. Overall, 44.3% of participants met the criteria for metabolic syndrome; among its components, central obesity had the highest prevalence, at 66%. In contrast, only 9.4% of participants had a diagnosis of metabolic syndrome or any of its components, and 7.5% had been prescribed medication for the condition. The poster also provides contextual data indicating that, in Sweden, 0.5% of 119,227 prosecution decisions led to forensic psychiatric investigation (576 investigations), and 64% of these led to forensic psychiatric care (394 individuals). In conclusion, the study emphasizes that metabolic health is poor at the forensic psychiatric investigation stage, while adequate treatment is uncommon; identifying the reasons underlying this treatment gap is important for reducing morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease.
