Abstract: 118 patients with DM and control group members were studied. The average age of patients was 60.6. In our case, no reliable data revealed a relationship between the disease and gender. On the other hand, when the BMIs of patients and healthy individuals were compared, a significant disparity was observed regarding normal weight. Specifically, patients with normal weight comprised only 4.2±1.8% of the total studied individuals, while in the healthy group, this figure was five times higher at 21.2±3.8%. It should be noted that patients are quantitatively predominant in all obesity categories. The prevalence of the O (I) blood group was significantly higher in the control group, as the obtained results indicate. Based on these data, we can conclude that individuals with the O (I) blood group are more resistant to developing the disease. B (III) and AB (IV) phenotypic groups prevalence was seven times higher in affected individuals, suggesting they can be classified as disease-susceptible groups.
