[Obesity as a risk factor for ischemic heart disease]
Abstract
The occurrence of risk factors for ischaemic heart disease in obesity is discussed. The presented view is based on the review of literature and own preliminary experiences. The importance of the distribution of the fatty tissue was shown for the medical practice. Android-type obesity increases the probability of the occurrence of metabolic disturbances leading to ischaemic heart disease.
