[Risk factors of atherosclerosis in young people].
Factor analysis was used to study an association of risk factors of atherosclerosis (AS) in student during their study. These factors were shown to be rather evident just at the age of 17-22 years. The correlation matrixes in male and female students are described by a mixed number of factors and the factors differ themselves in the internal structure, magnitude, and correlation signs. Young men were ascertained to be more susceptible to stresses and to have more abnormal lipid metabolism. The risk of AS is much higher just in young men. It is concluded that male sex is a major potential risk factor of this disease. Accordingly, rational hygienic and demographic strategy must be aimed primarily at maintaining the health status of men as the most susceptible social sector.
