Atherosclerosis and its complications are at the first place in mortality of adult population not only in Czech Republic, but among all developed countries through the world. It is well known today that atherosclerotic changes are present even in childhood, especially in children with mothers with hypercholesterolemia. Primary prevention should be therefore focused on very early stages of atherosclerosis in childhood. In all children the active prevention must start as early as possible and include smoking, obesity, metabolic syndrome, blood lipids and blood pressure. The article contains summary of current knowledge about atherosclerosis in childhood as well as information on the active prevention of its development.
动脉粥样硬化及其并发症不仅在捷克共和国，而且在全世界所有发达国家的成年人口死亡率中都位居首位。如今众所周知，动脉粥样硬化性改变甚至在儿童期就已出现，尤其是在母亲患有高胆固醇血症的儿童中。因此，一级预防应聚焦于儿童期动脉粥样硬化的极早期阶段。对于所有儿童，积极预防必须尽早开始，包括吸烟、肥胖、代谢综合征、血脂和血压等方面。本文包含了关于儿童期动脉粥样硬化的当前知识总结以及其发展的积极预防信息。
