Abstract
In people over 60 years, the most common diseases are the cardiovascular system and geriatric syndromes. Dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia are traditional cardiovascular risk factors. However, their impact on the major geriatric syndromes development among people over 60 years remains unclear. The relationship between the presence of diabetes mellitus type 2 and the development of frailty, sarcopenia, cognitive impairment depends on age. With increasing age, the influence of chronic hyperglycemia on geriatric syndromes decreases and in centenarians it acquires a neutral role. Recent studies have shown that in people over 60 years old low HDL levels are associated with the development of frailty, sarcopenia, cognitive impairment.
