In a group of 26 women with an impaired glucose tolerance anthropometric measurements of basic somatometric characteristics were made with special attention to the subcutaneous fat distribution and compared the findings with the healthy Czech population. Changes in body build, BMI, subcutaneous body fat distribution were evaluated and the causality of the relationship between blood pressure and gluteofemoral and abdominal obesity was investigated. From the author's observations ensues that in the group of women with impaired glucose tolerance overweight was recorded, as compared with the normal population, disproportions in the circumferences of the trunk and extremities, an excessive percentage of body fat, well developed muscles. In abdominal obesity a significant increase of the blood pressure and BMI was found.
