Explanation:

Identify the cluster of obesity-related risk factors

The first question asks for a condition characterized by a cluster of obesity-related risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. This clinical cluster—which includes abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and abnormal cholesterol levels—is defined as metabolic syndrome.

Question 1

• hyperlipidemia
• congenital heart disease
• transient ischemic attack
