    Abstract:
    The results obtained at entry in the subjects included in a pilot study (Institute of Internal Medicine, Bucharest) for the detection and prevention of coronary heart disease and hypertension, are presented. These data are the prevalences of the risk factors of coronary heart disease (high serum cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, overweight, diabetes, nonspecific minor ECG signs, family history), as well as the prevalences of the various forms of coronary heart disease. The study of the frequency distribution of biologic parameters likely to become risk factors showed that in middle aged subjects the upper limit of the normal should be lowered from the 95th percentile to the 76th one.
