title: [Decile distribution of risk of mortality from ischemic cardiopathy in the male population registered at a health care center].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To distribute the male population registered at our health centre into deciles of risk of death from ischaemic heart disease, using only the data in the clinical history.
  
  
  METHODS
  A crossover, retrospective and observational study, without random distribution.
  
  
  METHODS
  Urban health centre.
  
  
  METHODS
  The work material was 2848 clinical histories of men aged between 25 and 55 1420 of these were histories with up-to-date data because the men had had a consultation during the preceding year.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The method proposed by Shaper to evaluate cardiovascular risk was used. The most prevalent risk factor was tobacco dependency, at 50.1% (CI 95%, 47.5-52.7), whereas hypertension and diabetes did not exceed 14.1% (CI, 12.3-15.9) and 2.5% (CI, 0.016-3.31), respectively, 90% of those under 35 were in the 10-30 deciles, while about half the over-45s were in the 40-90 deciles.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Use of the Shaper method enabled us to distribute our male patients according to risk and identify 4% (2.56-5.37) as being at high risk of ischaemic heart disease.
