Carbohydrate Metabolism in Young Women with Primary Obesity

Abstract

We have studied the carbohydrate metabolism in 241 young women — ​16–45 years (mean age — ​28.5 ± 7.0 years) with primary obesity (body mass index 26 to 62 kg/m2). It was found that 64 % of women with primary obesity had clinical and laboratory signs of insulin resistance, of which 19.5 % — ​impaired glucose tolerance, and 6.6 % — ​the overt type 2 diabetes. The incidence of impaired glucose metabolism in this cohort of patients did not depend on the age of onset of the disease.
