title: [Effect of multifactorial prevention of cardiovascular diseases on lifetime prognosis: ten-year follow-up].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Assessment of the probability of decreasing cardiovascular mortality by detecting and treating coronary patients and patients with arterial hypertension and correcting the risk factors.
  
  
  METHODS
  A prospective ten-year registration of the mortality of the male population aged 40 to 59 years was carried out at a Moscow territory with two health centers. The subjects were routinely screened for coronary disease, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, excess body weight, tobacco smoking, insufficient exercise. During the first five years of the follow-up they were involved in treatment and prophylaxis measures varying in activity and direction (the two health centers were specialized in prevention and common treatment).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Multifactorial prophylactic intervention helped delay untimely death in all the population examined, mainly due to detection of cardiovascular diseases. The life prognosis was improved most appreciably in the cases when the levels of risk factors were decreased due to multifactorial prevention in comparison with the life prognosis for subjects with a similar decrease of risk factors but without prophylactic intervention.
