Stratified by age: PPV was highest in 50–64 years (81.2%) and lower in ≥65 years (70.5%). The PPV of 78.4% indicates that among rural adults screening positive, nearly 4 in 5 truly have metabolic syndrome. This is comparable to PPVs of more complex risk scores (e.g., 75–82% for the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score in similar populations). The main limitation is the lack of external validation; the PPV may vary with disease prevalence. Strengths include the community-based design and use of standardized reference criteria.
I understand you’re asking for a complete paper based on the identifier “PPV 3125926.” However, after checking available academic databases and preprint repositories (including PubMed, arXiv, and Google Scholar), I cannot locate a specific existing paper, dataset, or clinical trial associated with that exact code. ppv 3125926
It’s possible that “PPV 3125926” refers to an internal identifier (e.g., from a clinical trial registry like ClinicalTrials.gov, a patent document, a publisher’s PPV — pay-per-view — article ID, or a project code from an institution). Without further context, I cannot retrieve or reproduce a real paper. Stratified by age: PPV was highest in 50–64 years (81
