Abstract
The metabolic syndrome last years draws steadfast attention endocrinologists, cardiologists, general practicioners. 78 patients of a male with a diabetes 2 types in the age of 45-60 years (mean age 53,69 ± 4,88) are surveyed. The mean duration of diabetes was 8,34 ± 6,26 years (1 month - 20 years). The control group consisted of 25 men without the specified diseases and were of similar age group. Data obtained by us confirm essential interrelation between androgen deficiency and insulin resistance, that low testosterone levels are an independent risk factor for the subsequent development of metabolic syndrome and diabetes type 2, independent of obesity. Low circulating testosterone levels positively correlate with several well-known cardiovascular risk factors.
