[Stratification of risk of cardiovascular complications in government employees and results of 10-year prospective observation].

We investigated prognostic value of the SCORE scale in working age government employees with 3 or more risk factors (RF) of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and metabolic syndrome (MS, 2001 criteria) according to results of 10-year prospective observation in a policlinic. The study comprised 268 practically healthy men: 168 patients with 3 or more RF of CVD (mean age 47.76+/-6.

[Detection of risk factors and early manifestations of cardiovascular diseases during ambulatory examination of working age persons].

We have studied prevalence of risk factors (RF) of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) recorded for statistical purposes in subjects of able bodied age during 10 year period of observation in a policlinic as well as prevalence of early and/or oligosymptomatic CVD manifestations in 11762 subjects of working age with RF of CVD development according to results of complex noninvasive examination of cardiovascular system in ambulatory conditions during the period from 2000 to 2009 year. Numbers of men and women were 45.3 and 54.

[Risk factors prevalence of subclinical forms of cardiovascular diseases among subjects of working age].

The prevalence of preclinical forms of cardiovascular diseases diagnosed by EchoCG, Holter monitoring, functional test, ultrasound of extracranial arteries was analysed among practically healthy subjects at risk of CHD who underwent primary outpatient examination in 1986-1995 Another 172 persons at high risk of cardiovascular disorders were included in the "vascular run" program for short-term medical examination. It is shown that the frequency of pathological conditions diagnosed by the above methods increases in case of combined arterial hypertension and metabolic disturbances (dyslipidemia, excessive body mass, glucose intolerance). Prospective observations revealed high prognostic value of comprehensive assessment of the cardiovascular system.

[Outpatient diagnostics of the initial stage of essential hypertension].

The informative value of functional diagnostic methods in the revealing of the initial stage of essential hypertension (EH) in patients with high risk of cardiovascular complications (CVC) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) was studied. The subjects of the study were 186 men considering themselves practically healthy, with high risk of CVC according to SCORE scale. Mean age of the subjects was 47.

[Unsolved questions of infectious endocarditis prophylaxis in outpatients practice].

Aim: To check practical feasibility of recommendations of prevention of infectious endocarditis (IE) and to provide more accurate figures on the occurrence of valvular lesions in working population.

Materials And Methods: Subacute IE manifestations have been analysed in 10 patients of a general outpatient clinic. Echocardiograms of 6209 patients under 60 years of age were studied retrospectively.
