[Multiyear prospective study of ischemic heart disease among a selected male population from one of the districts of Moscow. A comparison of the data from repeat examinations of the chosen population after 6 1/2 years].
The findings of a prospective follow-up of a selective male population whose ages ranged from 50 to 59 years are discussed. Two one-stage examinations were conducted at an interval of 6 1/2 years. A marked increase in the incidence of various forms of ischemic heart disease and its risk factors was noted. Growth of the entropy of the distribution of the forms of ischemic heart disease, ECG changes, and risk factors was also revealed, which reflected the unidirectional process of ageing of the population associated with the accumulation of "pathology" with time.
