title: [Characteristics of the main risk factors of coronary disease among the population of Warsaw and rural agricultural population of the Tarnobrzeg province].
abstract: Basing on results of first screening of the Pol-MONICA Project in 1984 in two centres that is the Tarnobrzeg province and two districts of Polish capital Warsaw (Praga South and Praga North) the level of 11 main coronary disease risk factors was compared in 2469 men and 2729 women. The following 5 risk factors were statistically significant for both men and women: the Durnin index of body fat content, the total cholesterol concentration in the plasma, triglyceride level, numbers of daily meals. The mean level of two factors that is the HDL-cholesterol concentration and the HDL-cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio was lower in the Warsaw sample what speaks in favor of concept that the ischemic heart disease threat is greater in that population. Among men the Warsaw population exhibited moreover the significantly higher value of diastolic blood pressure as well as of Quetelet body mass index; age and numbers of cigarettes smoked daily has also been higher in that population. In women from the Tarnobrzeg province ++ the diastolic blood pressure was higher than that in the Warsaw population. The two populations studied showed also highly significant differences so far as the complex of all 11 features is concerned what enabled the qualification of 72.3% of men, and 68.4% of women as belonging to the big city population or to the agricultural-industrial population using the discriminant Fisher function.
