title: [Risk factors and ischemic heart disease in officers of the Yugoslav Army: cross-sectional study and recommendations for prevention].
abstract: The cross-sectional study comprised 8095 officers of the Y.P.A. from the limited territory, and relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and prevalence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) has been analysed. The high and statistically significant positive relationship of serum cholesterol, blood pressure, relative body weight, glycemia and previous cigarette smoking and IHD prevalence was found. Besides, a relatively high distribution of the mentioned risk factors was found among officers without IHD. The results of the study suggest the necessity of application of the strategy of mass prevention of risk factors aiming at primary prevention of IHD among officers of the Y.P.A.
