    Author: Oganov RG, Zhukovski GS, Konstantinov VV, Perova NV, Tubol IB.
    Journal: Kardiologiia; 1989 May; 29(5):56-61. PubMed ID: 2788762.
    Abstract:
    Random representative samples of 20- to 54-year-old men and 11- and 14-year-old boys were investigated in different regions of the country in order to elucidate the pattern of the formation of major coronary risk factors. The prevalence of coronary heart disease was found to vary widely in 20- to 54-year-old males and show correlation to risk factor levels in most centres. Difference in the incidence of hyperdiglyceridemia and smoking can already be seen in 11-year-old boys, and variation in hypercholesterolemia and excessive body weight, after 14 years of age.
