Methods: The present study aimed to cluster the participants based on risk factors for the CMetDs using Latent Profile Analysis (LPA). This study was conducted on 500 healthcare providers, aged 18 to 75 years at Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran. LPA was used to explore the latent risk profiles based on age, blood pressure (BP), lipid profile, insulin, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference. Results: The individuals were classified into three LPA-driven profiles: low (42.4%), intermediate (21.8%), and high (35.8%). The high-risk profile found in older age and higher BMI, insulin, fasting blood glucose (FBS), as well as higher levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, total cholesterol, and triglyceride. Furthermore, in the intermediate risk profile, elevated levels of systolic\/diastolic BP and waist circumference were associated with higher levels of risk. Haemoglobin and hematocrit levels were significant predictors of low and intermediate latent profiles. Higher levels of hemoglobin and hematocrit were associated with lower odds of being in low and intermediate latent profiles, compared to the high-risk profile (all P&lt;0.05). Conclusion: LPA-derived latent profiles and the specific predictors of profiles help find control and prevention measures in CMetDs; older individuals with poorer lipid profiles, and, elevated insulin, triglyceride, FBS, BP, and BMI levels should be screened more carefully.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.34172\/jcvtr.025.33541","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,24]],"date-time":"2025-12-24T14:54:16Z","timestamp":1766588056000},"page":"265-273","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Cardio-metabolic risk among healthcare providers: A latent profile study"],"prefix":"10.34172","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0003-2599-2085","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Parya","family":"Esmaeili","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Liver and Gastrointestinal Diseases Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"},{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Faculty of Health, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sayyed M.","family":"Haybatollahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of People and Performance, Manchester Metropolitan University, Manchester, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8173-6532","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Neda","family":"Roshanravan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6806-9387","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Samad","family":"Ghaffari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Naimeh Mesri","family":"Alamdari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Endocrine Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saeed","family":"Mousavi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Faculty of Health, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3284-9749","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Mohammad","family":"Asghari-Jafarabadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Road Traffic Injury Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran"},{"name":"Cabrini Research, Cabrini Health, 154 Wattletree Rd, Malvern, VIC 3144, Australia"},{"name":"School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, 3004, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"20123","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]]},"container-title":["Journal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/jcvtr.tbzmed.ac.ir\/PDF\/jcvtr-17-265.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/jcvtr.tbzmed.ac.ir\/PDF\/jcvtr-17-265.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,24]],"date-time":"2025-12-24T14:54:16Z","timestamp":1766588056000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jcvtr.tbzmed.ac.ir\/Article\/jcvtr-33541"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.34172\/jcvtr.025.33541","relation":{},"ISSN":["2008-5117","2008-6830"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2008-5117","type":"print"},{"value":"2008-6830","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,17]]},"assertion":[{"value":"Tabriz University of Medical Sciences","name":"journal_owner","label":"Journal Owner"},{"value":"Tabriz University of Medical Sciences","name":"journal_publisher","label":"Journal Publisher"},{"value":"2025-03-25","order":1,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-09-11","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-12-17","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
