Summary
Background. The prevalence of depression, anxiety and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQL) is significantly higher among people with increased cardiometabolic risk. One of the most studied methods that may improve psycho-emotional state and HRQL in this population is physical exercise training, which can be performed independently or with a supervision of a healthcare specialist.
Summary
Background. Individuals with increased cardiometabolic risk benefit from regular physical training. During various physical trainings, different protocols are applied, trainings differ in duration, intensity, and exercises performed, which may affect cardiometabolic risk indicators differently.
Summary

Summary
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a complex multisystem genetic disorder due to loss of expression of paternally expressed genes from an imprinted region 15q11.2-q13. Loss of expression of SNORD116 gene cluster was recently described as a cause.
Height, weight and body mass index are the main indicators of human physical status. They are determined by the interaction of internal and external human growth factors. External factors could be divided (relatively) into socioeconomic (they are more important at early childhood), ethnic and cultural (play the important role at adolescence) and environmental (their impact is still not explored sufficiently).
