[Data of one-stage screening trial of an open Tumen population].

AIM

To evaluate epidemiological situation by cardiovascular diseases and their risk factors in Tyumen.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

An open population of the Central Tyumen district was studied (1608 patients) for prevalence of obesity, arterial hypertension, systolic and diastolic arterial pressure.

RESULTS

It was found: high incidence of arterial hypertension both in males and females (25.6 and 24.6%, respectively) with predominance of isolated systolic arterial hypertension in younger patients, high incidence of borderline hypertension in young men, higher predisposition to obesity in males vs females. Body mass index was higher in 25-34-year-old males but increased with age in females.

CONCLUSION

It is necessary to perform a cohort study of epidemiological parameters to detect persons with cardiovascular disease risk.
