Abstract

Aim. To conduct a comparative analysis of the population frequency of obesity among women in different regions of Tajikistan.

Materials and methods: An analysis was conducted to determine the prevalence of obesity among women in urban and rural areas. Statistical reporting data were used to inform this analysis, which was conducted using the F 12 “Report on diseases of the service area of health centers” form. A comparative analysis of data on obesity among residents of Dushanbe and the Sughd region was conducted.

Results. Over a five-year period, the incidence of obesity in Dushanbe increased by 948 cases, while in the Sughd region it increased by 1128 cases. The differences between the regions were almost 1.2 times greater.

A comparative analysis of the incidence indicators revealed that the incidence of obesity in Dushanbe increased by 499 units over five years, while in the Sughd region it increased by 505 units. Concurrently, the incidence rate in Dushanbe exhibited a growth of 14.7 over the five-year period, while in the Sughd region, the rate increased by 4.1. A comparative analysis of the T/app. in the two surveyed regions of the country revealed a notable rise in the prevalence of obesity among women. Between 2017 and 2021, the incidence of obesity in Dushanbe increased by 64%. The incidence rate for five years increased by 63%, while the T/app. incidence was equal to +71%.

Conclusions: In all regions of Tajikistan, approximately half or more of the population are women. Over the course of five years, there has been a pronounced upward trend in the incidence of obesity in the studied regions.
