[Incidence of ischemic heart disease among men aged 40-49 years not participating in the population study].
This investigation was carried out in the framework of a collaborative study on the multifactorial prophylaxis of coronary heart disease (CHD) among men aged 40-59 years living in Kaunas. The authors compared the findings from the medical examination of the group of subjects involved in this study (5943 males) and of 200 randomly selected men who were not involved in this study. It was elicited that those not involved in the study showed a greater predominance of CHD risk factors (arterial hypertension, smoking, underexercise and personality psychological type A) and a greater proportion of myocardial infarction survivers (3.87% and 1.49%, respectively).
