    Abstract:
    A representative random sample of 3,308 male residents aged 20-59 years from a Moscow district was examined. Only 74% of them participated in the study. Routine epidemiological methods were used to identify various forms of coronary heart disease (CHD). The prevalence of CHD was 9.7% in the population with the incidence of definite CHD of 5% and possible CHD of 4.6%. The prevalence of CHD was significantly associated with age, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypoalphacholesterolemia, and obesity. The findings should be borne in mind while planning preventive measures in the population of working age.
