Abstract
An analysis of the body mass index (BMI) revealed the ethnic, gender, age differences among the groups of hospital patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) aged over 60. Significantly higher value of BMI was identified in non-indigenous patients compared to Yakut group that was respective to the obesity of p <0,001. Maximum values of BMI were established in the older group aged between 60 and 74 years. The decrease in BMI can be observed with the age in the senile age group and more clearer dependency on age in the indigenous group. When comparing the BMI among the age groups: older, senile age and long-livers, the lower value of BMI was noted among long-livers (p <0,001). The obesity was identified significantly more often among women.
