Abstract

The aim of the work was to study the clinical and genetic factors at children with obese that predispose to the development of MS, and the development of algorithm for generating risk of MS.

Materials and methods: Two comparable age and sex groups of children--148 children with obesity and 46--with normal body weight. We assessed anthropometric indices, blood pressure (BP), lipid profile, carbohydrate metabolism, the level of uric acid. 83 children with obesity were genotyped for polymorphisms: I/D gene ACE, G-75A ApoA1, S19W ApoA5, Sstl ApoC3, E2/E3/E4 ApoE and W/R ADRB3.

Results: 98,0% of children had abdominal obesity. In 35,8% was identified high blood pressure. In 47,4% was diagnosed hypo-alpha cholesterolemia and/or hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). In 21,0% of children was identified hyperglycemia. 25,7%were suffered from hyperuricemia. Among the genotyped children 57,0% of homo-and heterozygous carriers of D allele ACE gene had high blood pressure. More than half of the holders of 19W-allele ApoA5 (68,5%),--75A-allele of ApoA1 (56,0%), 52-allele of the gene ApoC3 (53,0%), E4-ApoE gene (85,7%), in the heterozygous state had metabolic TG and/or HDL. In 60,3% of the carriers W/W genotype of ADRB3 gene revealed a combination of hyperglycemia with hyperinsulinemia and/or TG.

Conclusion: As a result of, aiming aimed at early detection of the major manifestations of MS clinical and genetic study was revealed stable combination of constitutional, metabolic and molecular-genetic factors. Based on these data was developed algorithm for forming groups at risk of MS and individual tactics to prevent and/or therapy.
