Abstract
We studied blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index, waist circumference, and purine metabolism of 239 military men of young and middle age with hypertension and arterial hypertension of 1 degree, stratified into the categories of low and medium cardiovascular risk according to the Framingham risk scale. To clarify the role of risk factors for arterial hypertension in the formation of the clinical picture and structural and functional changes of men with initially low and medium risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases according to the Framingham risk scale, we studied the correlation between body weight parameters and age, heart rate, office parameters blood pressure, risk on the Framingham risk scale, waist circumference and uric acid. It was revealed that young and middle-aged men with pre-hypertension and arterial hypertension of 1 degree, classified as medium cardiovascular risk, are characterized by significantly higher values of blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index, waist circumference, blood uric acid level and average risk according to Framingham scale compared with subjects of low calculated risk. It is concluded that transformation of pre-hypertension into arterial hypertension, as well as the estimated low cardiovascular risk to medium, is accompanied by an increase in heart rate, body mass index, waist circumference and an increase in uric acid in the blood serum. This indicates the advisability of expanding the volume of regularly performed screening studies in male military personnel with determination of the level of uric acid of blood doesn’t from the age of 41, but from the age of 25-30 and to evaluate the cardiovascular risk not only on the SCORE scale, but also on Framingham scale of total cardiovascular risk
