Abstract:
In this paper, we’ve described clinical and laboratory data concerning metabolic syndrome in adolescents with and without involvement of the pancreas. Also, dietary recommendations for prevention of pancreatic involvement in adolescents with metabolic syndrome were studied and illustrated. A hundred patients were thoroughly examined, among them 50 - with involvement of the pancreas and 50- without involvement. Our studies revealed the following as risk factors of pancreatic involvement: irregular acceptance of meals not more than 2 times daily (63.3%), overfeeding (58.0%).
