Resumo
The author describes the results of study carried out in 171 children aged from 6 to 14 years suffering from adiposity of the constitutional-exogenous and neuro-endocrine form. A complicated character of hemodynamic dicturbances in adiposity (intensified cardiac activity, hyperdynamia replaced by the hypodynamia of the myocardium syndrome in marked degrees of adiposity, incoordination between the central and the peripheral circulation links is noted. All this points to the early involvement of the heart and the vessels in the pathological process.
