Background and aims: The aim was to analyze insulin resistance (IR), glycoregulation disorders, lipid status, C-reactive protein (CRP), plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) and antioxidant defense in children and adolescents with pre-metabolic (Pre-MS) and metabolic (MS) syndromes.Material and methods: The study included 30 obese individuals (age 10–20 years, body mass index (BMI) or waist circumference (WC) ≥90 percentile). Three of the fo...

Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the existence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), atherosclerotic factors and antioxidant defense in patients with central retinal artery and central retinal vein occlusions (CRAO, CRVO) and anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION).Materials and Methods: The study included 38 obese individuals with CRAO, CRVO and AION. Glycoregulation disorders were determined by OGTT. Lipid status was determined by spectrophotomet...
