To estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) disease and CV risk factors among Polish patients.
A nationwide cross-sectional study, LIPIDOGRAM2015, was carried out in Poland in the 4th quarter of 2015 and 1st and 2nd quarters of 2016; 438 primary care physicians enrolled 13,724 adult patients that sought medical care in primary health care practices.
Nearly 19% of men and approximately 12% of women had cardiovascular disease (CVD). Over 60% of the recruited patients had hypertension (HTN), >80% had dyslipidaemia and <15% of patients were diagnosed with diabetes (DM). All of these disorders were more frequent in men. In 80% of patients the waist circumference exceed norm for the European population. Less than half of the patients were current smokers or had smoked in the past. Patients with CVD had significantly higher blood pressure and glucose levels but lower low density lipoprotein-cholesterol level.
The prevalence of CVD and CV risk factors among patients in Poland is high. CVD is more common in men than in women. The most common CV risk factors are excess waist circumference, dyslipidaemia and HTN. Family physicians should conduct activities to prevent, diagnose early and treat CVD in the primary health care population.
评估波兰患者心血管疾病（CV）和 CV 危险因素的流行情况。
一项全国性的横断面研究 LIPIDOGRAM2015 于 2015 年第四季度和 2016 年第一季度和第二季度在波兰进行；438 名初级保健医生招募了 13724 名在初级保健机构就诊的成年患者。
近 19%的男性和大约 12%的女性患有心血管疾病（CVD）。超过 60%的招募患者患有高血压（HTN），超过 80%的患者有血脂异常，<15%的患者被诊断患有糖尿病（DM）。所有这些疾病在男性中更为常见。在 80%的患者中，腰围超过了欧洲人群的正常值。不到一半的患者是当前吸烟者或过去吸烟。患有 CVD 的患者血压和血糖水平明显更高，但低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平较低。
波兰患者 CVD 和 CV 危险因素的患病率很高。CVD 在男性中比女性更为常见。最常见的 CV 危险因素是腰围过大、血脂异常和 HTN。家庭医生应在初级保健人群中开展预防、早期诊断和治疗 CVD 的活动。
