title: [HEALTH LOSSES FROM MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION CAUSED BY AIR CHEMICAL POLLUTION OF THE INDUSTRIAL CENTRE].
abstract: Losses of health from myocardial infarction in the city of Kemerovo were estimated accordingly to the disability-adjusted life year (DALY) index, as well as its compartments: YLL (years lost due to premature death) and YLD (years lost disability). When ranking districts of the city of Kemerovo both in terms of chemicals exposure and the value of the DALY index there was revealed the opposite direction of these indices. The performance of the correlation analysis of health losses with concentrations of chemical contaminants allowed to reveal a feedback between them among the elderly patients (60 years and older) and direct--in young (up to 45 years old) cases. This fact probably may attest to the significant contribution of the environmental pollution in the process of development and progression of atherosclerotic changes in the young population.
