title: [Arterial hypertension, disorders of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in obese perimenopausal females].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To examine prevalence of arterial hypertension (AH), disorders of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in females with obesity in perimenopause.
  
  
  METHODS
  One-stage trial enrolled 358 obese females in menopause seeking advice in the city center for health and family planning in Ekaterinburg (mean age 50.5 +/- 5.4 years).
  
  
  RESULTS
  111 (31%) females suffered from obesity, 154 (43%) had overweight, 93--normal body mass. A relative risk to develop AH in overweight was 2.61, in obesity--3.52. Diabetes mellitus was in 15 females with obesity, disturbed glucose tolerance was in 38 females with overweight.
