Abstract:
The authors compared body weight with indices of peroxidation of lipids in 134 patients with unspecific pulmonary diseases. Conjugated diens and dienketones rose parallelly with increase of the excessive body weight. Correlation ratios are described. Considering unfavourable effects of activation lipid peroxidation, obesity may be evaluated as endogenous metabolic risk factors for diseases of the respiratory organs.
