We evaluate prevalence of hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension among homeless adults and the risk factors in the study. Data from homeless adults who are more than 40 years old with hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and hypertension in Taipei city was collected with their health check information of 1,103 cases.We collected samples for 24 times during 2010 to 2014 . The overall prevalence of hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipldemia were 42%,28.8% and 29.0%.The results by descriptive statistics are listed as below:percentages of male and female were 83.3% and 16.7%;age from 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, over 70 years were 17.2%,36.8%,28.3%,17.8%, education level from Illiterate, elementary school, junior high school, senior high school, college and university were 10.9%, 39.1%, 24.5%, 18.9%, 3.7%, 2.8%;percentages of unmarried, separated,divorced, widowed cohabitation and married were 50.5%, 28.1%, 7.5%, 4.4%, 9.5%. The correlation between variables is studied. The risk factor of hypertension is hyperlipldemia and the risk factor of hyperglycemia is hyperlipldemia. Logisticregression showed the risk factor of hypertension is age and the risk factor of hyperglycemia is age. Logistic regression also found that the risk factors of hyperlipldemia are female, unmarried and smoking.
