why the X in syndrome X???
I am just curious. Why is metabolic syndrome called syndrome X. I always thought that down syndrome (genetic disorder) is referred to as X syndrome but was surprised to see syndrome X here and then found out that the two are totally different. Just wondering where the X came from
