The questionnaire method was used to study obesity incidence among 25107 subjects over 15 years of age living in the Northern, Southern and Western regions of Kazakhstan. Anthropometry was conducted, and incidence rate of certain diseases in the investigated subjects was recorded. Excessive body mass was revealed in 36.1%, among them obesity was diagnosed in 23.7%. The obesity incidence increases with aging and decreasing of physical load level. Obesity was more frequently observed among the urban women than among the rural, and it was less frequent among the urban than among the rural men. The incidence rate of obesity in the population of the Northern region of the Republic was significantly higher than that in the population of the Western and Southern regions. The incidence rate of arterial hypertension was 5-fold, that of coronary heart disease--4-fold, and of chronic diseases of the biliary tracts--3-fold higher in obese subjects as compared to those with normal body mass.
采用问卷调查法对居住在哈萨克斯坦北部、南部和西部地区的25107名15岁以上的受试者进行肥胖发生率研究。进行了人体测量，并记录了被调查受试者中某些疾病的发病率。发现36.1%的人体重超标，其中23.7%被诊断为肥胖。肥胖发生率随着年龄增长和身体负荷水平降低而增加。城市女性肥胖发生率高于农村女性，而城市男性肥胖发生率低于农村男性。该共和国北部地区人口的肥胖发生率明显高于西部和南部地区人口。与体重正常的受试者相比，肥胖受试者的动脉高血压发病率高5倍，冠心病发病率高4倍，胆道慢性病发病率高3倍。
