RESUMO
In the current study we have presented the analyzed data of screening materials of type 2 diabetes patients aged 45 and above carried out in Kharkov (n=535) and Kharkov district villages (n=1052). It has been established, that the data of cohort people with normal body mass index were practically the same and accounted approximately one fourth of the analyzed patients. At the same time, it appeared that the patients living in the city were more susceptible to metabolic obesity (enlargement of abdominal fat tissue), arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, insult and heavy family history. Metabolic obesity prevalent in city cohorts practically did not have any effect on the frequency of the above mentioned risk-factors. However, it definitely affected the cardio-vascular component in village cohorts.
