title: [Prevalence of atherogenic dyslipoproteinemias among the highland population].
abstract: The survey of a population including 40-59-old males, dwellers from the rural areas of the Tien Shan and Pamirs low- and highlands, has demonstrated that atherogenic dyslipoproteinemias are significantly more infrequently encountered among high-altitude dwellers than among low-altitude ones. The lower incidence of atherogenic dyslipoproteinemias in the mountain-dwellers correlates with much lower prevalence of coronary heart disease and its risk factors such as arterial hypertension, smoking, and obesity than with that in lowland-dwellers.
