Abstract

Basing upon comprehensive checkup of 82 patients with metabolic syndrome authors made diagnostics of different forms of sialoadenosis in them. The disease proceeded on the background of abdominal adiposity, lipid metabolism derangements, glucose toleration disturbances and diabetes mellitus of the 2nd type with reduction of tissue sensitivity to insulin (insulin resistivity). Results of the fulfilled patient treatment showed that it was necessary to include in the complex of therapeutic measures metformine (glukofagee) producing positive effect upon carbohydrate metabolism and also to normalize the work of glands increasing their secretory activity.
