title: [Prevalence of risk factors and indicators of mortality among males 40-59 years of age with various forms of ischemic heart disease (data of a 5-year prospective study)].
abstract: A collaborative study was undertaken to assess the efficacy of multifactor prevention of myocardial infarction and cerebral stroke. A representative group of 5951 males aged 40-50 years was examined in Kaunas. Coronary heart disease (CHD) was detected in 11.1%, including 2.7% who had a history of myocardial infarction, 2.5% had exertional angina, its painless type was found in 5.9%. In males with CHD, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity were more common and smoking was more infrequent than in those without the disease. The results of the 5-year follow-up showed that CHD males had higher total and cardiovascular mortality and myocardial infarction morbidity rates than males without CHD. Males with prior MI and pain-free CHD significantly differed from those from the control group in total and cardiovascular mortality rates. No statistically significant difference was found in MI mortality and morbidity rates between male patients with exertional angina and controls.
