title: [Features of early stages of cardiovascular continuum in workers engaged in oil-extracting enterprise].
abstract: The authors present data on metabolic disorders and vascular state in workers of oil extracting enterprise, exposed to complex of occupational hazards (noise, work hardiness, chemical factors). Major role among chemical hazards is played by aromatic hydrocarbons. In clinical and epidemiologic studies, arterial hypertension was reliably more frequent in a group of oil extraction workers. Findings are that oil extraction workers, when compared to the reference group, demonstrate more marked metabolic disorders (dyslipidemia with increased total cholesterol and low density lipoproteins, hyperuricemia, hyperglicemia, increased lipids peroxidation) with endothelial dysfunction. These changes are associated with remodelling of arterial wall, that at early stages involves thickening intima-media complex. That leads to hardness and arteriosclerosis of arteries.
