Medicinski Arhiv 2005
The high level lipids combine with other factors of risk for atherosclerotic heart disease and stroke (CVA) are one of the most important health problems all over the world. A risk for development of such changes is higher for specific profession as policemen. In this prospective study 300 policemen were medically examined; 150 tested patients and 150 policemen in control group. The same methods were applied to both groups: detailed anamnesis, physical check up, complete laboratory testing, electrophoresis of lipids at hypercholesterolinemia, Ultra-sound examination of abdomen and The Color Doppler analysis of neck arteries. Results obtained by statistical data processing have shown that the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in serums of the tested patients is significantly increased in comparison with the control group. Ultra-sound examination of abdomen detected fatty infiltration of liver for 16% patients and for 2% control group. The Color Doppler analysis of neck arteries for 14% patients revealed from hardly observable changes to dramatic narrowing of lumen up to 50%. For control group this percent was 0,66. Having in mind that this group consists of young active people, the problem of hyperlipidemy becomes even more serious.
