[The effect of socioeconomic status on the prevalence of biliary tract diseases in the Evens and Evenki].
An epidemiological survey demonstrated that biliary disease detection in aborigines of the Far North is more frequent in subjects with nontraditional way of life. Chief biliary disease factors different in importance for Evens and Evenks are as follows: prior viral hepatitis, obesity, alcohol abuse. Incidence rate for different biliary diseases is not uniform in Far North native population. This may be explained by specificity of biliary functions.
