Body weight and cardiovascular disease prevalence in climacteric women

Abstract

The article is devoted to body weight (BW) influence on cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevalence in climacteric women. The case-control study included 849 women. Group I included 283 females with normal BW, Group II - 283 overweight women, and Group III - 283 obese patients. Anthropometry, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism parameters, prevalence of arterial hypertension (AH), coronary heart disease (CHD)), chronic heart failure (CHF), myocardial infarction (MI), acute cerebrovascular events, and carbohydrate metabolism disturbances were examined. In Groups II and III, prevalence of AH was 65 % and 85. 2 %; CHD) - 13. 4 % and 9. 9 %; CHF- 28. 3 % and 43. 5 %; carbohydrate metabolism disturbances - 2. 5 % and 12 %, respectively, that was significantly greater than in women with normal BW: 53 %, 7. 1 %, 21. 3 %, and 2. 1 %, respectively. No increase in acute cerebrovascular event or MI prevalence was registered in Group III. Therefore, AH, CHD, and CHF prevalence in climacteric women was increased among overweight and obese individuals.
