[Occupational risk of accelerated ageing in motor transport drivers].
The authors studied biologic age, ageing speed, occupational performance in automobile drivers. Results prove intensive decrease in mental performance in automobile drivers. Findings are pre mature narrowing range of adaptive cardiovascular reactions to physical exertion in the drivers vs. control group. Premature ageing of physiologic parameters in automobile drivers is proved to be only "risk indicators", whereas prolonged length of service in driving is a real risk factor accelerating ageing process.
