HEART DISEASES AND THE NORTH (EPIDEMIOLOGY, PREVENTION)

In the framework of implementation of national project “Health”, ECG monitoring of 418 working females and 522 working males aged 18-59 was conducted in Khanty-Mansiysk. It was found out that CHD incidence at women is 12 %, while at men ? 3.9 % and certain CHD occurred at women 3 times more often than at men. Gender differences in lipid storage disease incidence are detected among Khanty-Mansiysk residents. For instance, level decrease of high-density lipoprotein cholesterin is more characteristic for women, while hypertriglyceridemia is for men. High density lipoprotein thyroglobulin increase was noted at 8.53 % of patients, more often at men than women (11,1 % vs. 7,1 % respectively, p < 0,01). Similarly, men had atherogenic dyslipidemia more often (46,7 %) than women 27,3 %.
