The screening of carbohydrate metabolism disorders by definition of HbAlc level reveals an increase the HbAlc level in 23% of males and 48% of females of the study cohort. 2. The greatest number of people with high HbAlc level was observed in the age group above 59 years old. 3. Active detection of violations of carbohydrate metabolism by definition of HbAlc level enables patients to make change lifestyle and begin treatment of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus, that diminish the negative impact of hyperglycemia and the development of cardiovascular disease.
