The results of the study of metabolic and infectious factors and immune system parameters connections with vascular wall changes at different stages of atherosclerotic process are presented in the article. The data are based on the results of cluster and correlation analyses. Stable clusters consisted of artery wall parameters, organism contamination, immune system characteristics and metabolic factors were present in all of the examined groups. On the basis of the revealed conformities it is suggested to determine the metabolic syndrome as an infectious-metabolic one which would allow to find new ways of its prophylaxis and treatment.
