Abstract

The aim. To assess the significance of somatotype and eating behaviour for evaluation of obesity risk resulting in the development of chronic cholecystitis in men and women. Materials and methods used: The 301 patients (97 men and 204 women) suffering from chronic cholecystitis were under medical observation. The impact of somatotype and eating behaviour on obesity risk and its further development into chronic cholecystitis in men and women was analyzed. Results. 62.8% of men and 79.9% of women suffering from obesity were reported to also suffer from chronic cholecystitis, while calculous cholecystitis burdened with obesity was registered more frequently in women rather than men - 88.5% and 59.1% respectively. The increased risk of chronic cholecystitis as a result of obesity in women was proved to be associated with significant frequency of metabolic syndrome with carbohydrate metabolism disorder prevailing. Conclusion. Results of survey have proven that frequency of obesity occurrence in men of abdominal, abdominal-muscular and abnormal constitutional types doesn’t almost depend on their eating behaviour while emotional eating behaviour in men of muscular-abdominal and muscular-thoracic constitutional types is an adverse prognostic factor for obesity progression and its further development into cholecystitis. The risk of obesity and resulting chronic cholecystitis in women is mostly associated with megalosomal constitution regardless of their eating behaviour type while external and emotional eating behaviours in women of other constitutional types are considered significant risk factors.
