Popis: Obesity is one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide. Many epidemiological studies on the association between increased obesity prevalence and rising prevalence of other pathology have been performed. Obesity progression facilitates the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD), Type 2 diabetes mellitus, cholelithiasis, cancer, asthma, and musculo-skeletal pathology. CVD pathogenesis in obesity is complex. In obese patients, the incidence of arterial hypertension (AH), coronary heart disease (CHD), heart failure, hypercholesterolemia, blood rheology disorders and thromboembolism is increased.
