The prevalence and trends of coronary heart disease in British men are discussed. In Britain, approximately 150 000 deaths each year are attributed to coronary heart disease (CHD).1 CHD has been estimated to cost around 10 billion per annum, much of this through lost earnings.1 For some ...
This paper examines the distribution and prevalence of risk factors for coronary heart disease in a sample of 165 men and 202 women over 40 years of age who had earlier participated in a coronary prevention trial from a general practice in Cambridge, UK. No significant differences were observed...

Monitoring of arterial hypertension on representative samples has shown that overall prevelance of coronary heart disease (CHD) in Russia is 13.5 +/- 0.1%, in men--14.3 +/- 0.3%, in women--13.0 +/- 0.2%. This is three times higher than in the United States where this figure in 2004 ...
Framingham risk equations were used to calculate the 4-year risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). HTN and cholesterol levels were then statistically "controlled" to ideal levels and risks were recalculated. Prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension was 15.2 million cases (13.7%). Of those, 12.9 ...

This study is to determine the prevalence of coronary heart disease risk factors in Nigerians with systemic hypertension. Serum lipid profile and fasting blood glucose were determined in one hundred and thirty six newly diagnosed hypertensives selected from the Medical Outpatient Department. Basic demogra...

Because of the preponderance of women in the elderly population, trials of the efficacy of correcting risk factors in general, and lipids in particular, should include women. 展开 关键词: Coronary heart disease demographics prevalence and incidence lipids elderly ...
