Abstract

An increase in body mass index and visceral obesity was observed among Polish primary health care patients included in the LIPIDOGRAM study from 2004 to 2015. As patients age, the number of cases of diabetes and dyslipidemia increases. These changes cause an increase in cardiometabolic risk.
