title: [Features of the epidemiologic characteristics of ischemic heart disease among scientific research workers].
abstract: The peculiarities of prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD), its main risk factors and their interrelationships were studied on the basis of the results of epidemiological surveys of an organized population of men aged 20 to 59 engaged in research, and an unorganized male population in one of Moscow districts. A similar CHD frequency was revealed in both populations (10.5 and 9.5%), however the prevalence of possible CHD was significantly higher among the research workers. In this group more unfavorable epidemiological conditions were noted with relation to such CHD risk factors as hypercholesterolemia, disturbed glucose tolerance, a low physical activity, with practically the same prevalence of excess body mass and lower frequency of arterial hypertension and smoking. The results obtained formed the basis for a design of measures on primary and secondary CHD prevention among research workers.
