Abstract:
Existing influenza surveillance system is constantly improved to obtain comprehensive information for understanding of continuously changing situation with the influenza, which is a consequence of the highest variability of the pathogen, its ability to reassortment and the imminence of emergence a new shift-variants of the virus that could cause the next pandemic events. For this purpose, since the 2010 - 2011 epidemic season, in addition to the traditional surveillance system (TS) a new well standardized sentinel surveillance system (SS) for rapid clinical and epidemiological data obtaining was introduced in Russia. A total 7812 hospitalized patients with severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) and 9854 outpatients with influenza-like illness and acute respiratory infection (ILI/ARI) were investigated during the 6-year period in SS. Percent of SARI among all hospitalized patients ranged from 1.7 to 3.1%; about 5.3 - 7.5% SARI patients were placed in the Intensive Care Unit. Etiological monitoring using PCR showed influenza spread trends in SS similar to those registered in the TS: a clear predominance of influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 among SARI and ILI/ARI in 2010 - 2011 and 2015 - 2016 epidemic seasons, influenza A (H3N2) in the epidemic seasons 2011 - 2012 and 2014 - 2015, the co-circulation of these pathogens in 2012 - 2013, 2013 - 2014 seasons in Russia. SARI caused by influenza B virus were detected less frequently than influenza A but increased influenza B activity was registered in the epidemic of 2014 -2015, when Yamagata lineage changed suddenly for the Victorian one. The average frequency of influenza diagnosis among SARI between the seasons varied in the range 12.5 - 27.1%, at the peak of the epidemic it reached 44.8 - 73.5% and was the highest during the season with active circulation of influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 virus. The rate of influenza diagnosis among ILI/ARI has always been lower than that among SARI. Studies have also shown the importance of rhinovirus, RS-virus and parainfluenza infections in SARI development. The frequency of registration of coronaviruses, metapneumovirus and bocavirus infection was very low in SARI and ILI/ARI. It was found that in all studied seasons most of SARI patients with influenza have not been vaccinated. Among ILI/ARI outpatients with influenza, the frequency of vaccinated individuals for the entire period of the study was estimated as 10.1%, which was 4.2 times higher than that in SARI, where only 2.4% of patients were vaccinated. In addition, it was found that for all six seasons the SARI patients with influenza were treated with antivirals drugs 2 times less often compared to outpatients. Analysis of data on concomitant diseases and conditions in SARI patients with influenza confirmed the leading role of pregnancy as a risk factor for hospitalization in all influenza epidemics, irrespective of their etiology. In addition, diabetes and cardiovascular disease were recognized as risk factors for influenza associated SARI development.

Abstract:
Introduction. New advances in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), as practice shows, are not able to significantly improve the statistical indicators of morbidity and mortality of CVD. This fact indicates that there are additional factors and mechanisms that are important to consider, both for prevention and for the most optimal management of patients. Recently, the relationship between environmental and lifestyle factors with CVD has been actively studied. However, despite understanding the relationship between environmental factors and various diseases, including CVD, the mechanisms by which specific factors increase or decrease the risk of developing CVD are not yet fully understood, and a number of studies are contradictory. The aim of our work was to generalize existing data on the impact of such critical environmental factors as air pollution and solar insolation on the cardiovascular system, as well as to comprehensively discuss the mechanisms by which these environmental factors can participate in the development and progression of CVD. To achieve our work’s goal, we analyzed modern foreign literature using the PubMed database. Conclusion. According to numerous experimental and clinical studies, air pollution and solar insolation deficiency play an essential role in developing CVD and the aggravation of patients with various CVD (atherosclerosis, hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke). Thus, air pollution and lack of solar insolation can be considered as critical risk factors for CVD. Future research should focus on the study and establishment of specific pathogenetic mechanisms by which environmental factors affect the cardiovascular system’s health to develop effective treatment and prevention measures.

Abstract:
Autoimmune diseases (AD) represent a broad spectrum of chronic conditions that may afflict specific target organs or multiple systems with a significant burden on quality of life. These conditions have common mechanisms including genetic and epigenetics factors, gender disparity, environmental triggers, pathophysiological abnormalities, and certain subphenotypes. Atherosclerosis (AT) was once considered to be a degenerative disease that was an inevitable consequence of aging. However, research in the last three decades has shown that AT is not degenerative or inevitable. It is an autoimmune-inflammatory disease associated with infectious and inflammatory factors characterized by lipoprotein metabolism alteration that leads to immune system activation with the consequent proliferation of smooth muscle cells, narrowing arteries, and atheroma formation. Both humoral and cellular immune mechanisms have been proposed to participate in the onset and progression of AT. Several risk factors, known as classic risk factors, have been described. Interestingly, the excessive cardiovascular events observed in patients with ADs are not fully explained by these factors. Several novel risk factors contribute to the development of premature vascular damage. In this review, we discuss our current understanding of how traditional and nontraditional risk factors contribute to pathogenesis of CVD in AD.

Abstract:
Background/Aim. Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death in the majority of developed, as well as in many developing countries. The aim of this study was to determine cardiovascular risk factors in student population and to suggest possible measures for prevention. Methods. The study was carried out during 2007-2008 at the School of Medicine, University of Nis. It included 824 students in their final year (220 males, 604 females). Results. There was no significant difference in prevalence of hypertension among the male (1.81%) and female students (0%). The prevalence of obesity (Body Mass Index - BMI > 30 kg/m2) was significantly higher (p < 0.001) in the male (7.27%) than in the female population (1.32%). Abdominal obesity was also more frequently encountered (p < 0.01) in the male (9.09%) than in female population (1.32%). Every fourth student smoked cigarettes with no significant difference between the male and female students. Alcohol consumption was a significantly higher problem (p < 0.001) in the male population (18.18%) than in the female one (2.65%). Physical inactivity was more often found (p < 0.001) in the female students (65.56%), than in male ones (36.36%). By the bivariate correlation of cardiovascular risk factors, it was determined that in the male student population systolic blood pressure correlated significantly with diastolic blood pressure, BMI and waist size, whereas age correlated with sistolic blood pressure, waist size and smoking. In the female students sistolic blood pressure correlated with diastolic blood pressure, BMI and waist size; diastolic blood pressure correlated with BMI and physical inactivity; cigarette smoking correlated with alcohol consumption and age. Conclusion. Cardiovascular risk factors are present in the final-year students of the School of Medicine, University of Nis. It is necessary to insist on decreasing obesity prevalence, cigarette and alcohol consumption, and on increasing physical activity of students in order to prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract:
Objective: To study the role of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases to optimize their pathogenetic diagnosis.Material and research methods. At the initial stage of clinical trials, all participants (n = 200) were questioned with age-sex characteristics and the main risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (alcohol abuse, smoking, obesity, stress). Biochemical and clinical studies were carried out in two groups of patients, 15 people in each group (the first main group - in addition to bad habits, there is an obesity factor, the second control group - bad habits are detected, but in the absence of obesity) as part of preventive medical examinations.The results of research. When studying psychosocial risk factors for the development of diseases of the cardiovascular system, a higher prevalence rate was noted for men in depression indicators - 26.3% of cases, and in the group of female patients the results were almost 2.5 times lower and amounted to only 15.0%. in both groups of healthy individuals, a low level of the frequency of occurrence of overweight and obesity was observed, compared with the main group, which were diagnosed in 28.6% of cases in the male half of the subjects, and among the representatives of the opposite sex, the indicator was 24.0%. The proportion of obese women in the main and control groups was higher than men by almost 1.5 times. Against the background of obesity and the presence of signs of non-alcoholic fatty degeneration of the liver, in comparison with patients with normal body weight, certain violations were detected in the form of a higher level in the blood of the liver enzyme ALAT - 35.2 ± 1.57 U / L and 21.3 ± 0 95 U / L, respectively, in the first main group and in the second control group.Conclusions. Thus, it was found that the cause of cardiovascular diseases, in particular, cardiac automatism disorders, stroke, myocardial infarction due to metabolic and psychoemotional disorders are overweight and obesity, which worsen the prognosis of CVD, creating the prerequisites for the development of complications.

Introduction. The high prevalence of circulatory diseases among workers exposed to hazardous occupational factors is an important medical and social problem. Material and methods. The study of working conditions and the state of the cardiovascular system in petrochemical workers has been carried out by using hygienic, clinical, laboratory and statistical research methods. Occupational and non-occupational factors of cardiovascular risks for workers have been studied. Results. As a result of complex clinical and hygienic studies, the contribution of occupational, non-occupational, and psycho-emotional factors to the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases in chemical workers has been established. The level of cardiovascular risk has been shown to be determined by the spectrum and intensity of the impact of occupational stress factors, the age and work-experience-related characteristics of workers Conclusion. The impact of occupational, non-occupational, psychosocial risk factors on the state of the cardiovascular system has been identified. The development and implementation of the multiple factor prevention system are imperative.

Abstract:
We analysed data from 33741 patients with ICD-10-AM-defined sepsis from an Australian hospital morbidity dataset to investigate the relationships between specific types of organisms, potential risk factors for infection, organ dysfunction, ICU utilization and hospital mortality. A total of 24% of patients received some of their care in an intensive care unit, and the overall hospital mortality rate was 18%. Gram-positive bacteria were isolated in 27% of cases and Gram-negative bacteria in 20%. Sepsis due to Staphylococcus aureus was associated with vascular and joint devices whereas Pseudomonasaeruginosa and Gram-negative rods were more common with genitourinary devices and lymphoproliferative disease. Sepsis-associated organ dysfunction most commonly involved the respiratory system, followed by the renal and circulatory systems. These patterns may provide useful clues to the pathogenesis and therapy of this often fatal syndrome which is a major ongoing problem for hospitalized patients.

The article presents a review of publications in in Russian and foreign literature devoted to modern views on the role of intestinal microbial metabolites as risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. The technical capabilities of the last decade made it possible to accurately characterize the intestinal microbiota, which contributed to a deeper understanding of the processes occurring during the development of a number of diseases and to establish that the outcome of their treatment is aff ected by pronounced changes in the composition, diversity and metabolic activity of the human intestinal microbiota. A number of questions on the interaction of the intestinal microbiota and the host organism remain open. Further research on the relationship of the intestinal microbiota, its metabolic products with risk factors for cardiovascular diseases opens up unique opportunities in the treatment and prevention of diseases of the cardiovascular system using manipulative technologies with the composition of the microbiota and its function.

Abstract:
Cardiovascular diseases in locomotive drivers are a factor limiting their working activity, as they can potentially increase the risks of accidents and disasters in rail transport. Working conditions of drivers are associated with occupational hazards that have a negative impact on the cardiovascular system. A review of clinical studies examining the risk factors for cardiovascular disease indicates the significant role of psychological stress on the health status of drivers. It was revealed that the negative effects of stress on the cardiovascular system depend on work stress, work schedule, and also on social factors: job satisfaction, salary, quality of rest and sleep. The studies revealed a correlation between the development of cardiac rhythm disturbances of high gradations with psychoemotional stress and sleep apnea in locomotive drivers.

Abstract:
Objectives: To establish a new mechanism for monitoring patterns of HIV infection, in the context of a sustained increase in HIV diagnosis among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Victoria. Methods: Between April 2004 and August 2005, a linked voluntary HIV sentinel surveillance system was implemented at five medical clinics with a high case load of MSM. Using a questionnaire, doctors collected HIV testing history, demographic and sexual risk behaviour information from all clients undergoing voluntary HIV testing. Questionnaires were linked with HIV test results. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine factors associated with HIV infection. Results: Of 3435 MSM tested for HIV at participating sites, 1.7%, (95% CI = 1.2–2.2) were newly diagnosed with HIV; between 2004 and 2005 the proportion increased from 1.3% (95% CI = 1.2–1.5) to 2.0% (95% CI = 1.8–2.2), P = 0.107. There was no significant change in the number of HIV tests conducted per month or in demographic characteristics, testing history and sexual behaviour characteristics between time periods. In multivariate analysis, reporting unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) with any partner, UAI with a HIV-positive partner/s and being aged 30–39 years or 40 years or greater were significantly associated with HIV infection. Conclusion: This new surveillance mechanism, based on linked testing at participating clinics, indicates that the increase in HIV notifications in 2005 was unrelated to changes in testing and data from a Melbourne sexual behavioural survey suggests the increase was more likely to be attributed to increases in transmission within the past few years. The sentinel system highlighted UAI, especially with HIV positive partner/s are important transmission factors.

Abstract:
Over the past century, an increase in life expectancy has been observed in Russia and in the world. According to the United Nations, by 2100, the number of centenarians worldwide will reach 25 million. Despite the annual increase in the number of super-centenarians, this age group remains poorly understood.Aim. To estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and the main risk factors among super-centenarians in Moscow.Material and methods. According to the register of long-livers in Moscow, 82 people aged 95 to 105 were included. Participants were examined at home.The history of life and the presence of chronic diseases was collected by participant words. To assess the state of cardiovascular system, an ultrasound of the heart and main arteries was performed.Results. Conventional CVD risk factors were the exception rather than the rule among study participants (smoking — 8 patients (9,8%), alcohol abuse — 4 (4,9%), obesity — 6 (7,3%)). Dyslipidemia was relatively widespread (n=37; 45,1%), however, there were no pronounced abnormalities in the lipid profile: the maximum increase in low-density lipoproteins was 5,6 mmol/L. The most common CVDs among the participants were hypertension (n=64; 78%), coronary artery disease (n=42; 51,2%), and heart failure (n=26; 31,7%); other diseases were much less common. The most common echocardiographic changes were left atrial dilatation (n=38; 74,5%), increased left ventricular mass, thickening of left ventricular posterior wall (n=24; 48%) and interventricular septum (n=51; 100%). Diastolic and systolic heart failure were not widespread among long-livers: 16 (32%) and 2 (3,9%), respectively. Despite a rather large number of atherosclerotic plaques in the common carotid and femoral arteries, the number of hemodynamically significant plaques was low (n=3; 4,6%). An intima-media thickening up to 1,0-1,1 mm was found.Conclusion. Long-livers in Moscow are characterized by a low prevalence of traditional CVD risk factors (with the exception of hypertension) and a fairly high prevalence of atherosclerotic CVDs, which are characterized by a subclinical course.

Abstract:
Hypertension is a risk factor that can cause hypertension leading to cardiovascular diseases. A high or persistent blood pressure level of 140/90mmHg is known as hypertension which is divided into further stages. Blood pressure is the pushing force with which the heart pumps blood against the walls of arteries. High blood pressure is a serious medical condition in which the force of blood against wall of an artery is elevated than the normal which is called as hypertension. Recent guidelines of ICD-11 categorizes blood pressure into four levels. In a clinical setting, an average of blood pressure measurements is usually taken by healthcare providers. These categories are labeled as normal blood pressure, elevated blood pressure, stage 1 hypertension and stage 2 hypertension according the blood pressure measurements. Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular diseases which results in significant morbidity and mortality. Hypertension for a long-term or chronic elevation of blood pressure causes organ damage, eventually. It can be divided into primary or essential hypertension which occurs in 95% of cases whereas; secondary hypertension occurs in 5% of the cases. There are several possible and interrelated factors that are involved in development of hypertension. Intake of sodium in diet, insulin resistance, genetics, and obesity are some of the non-modifiable risk factors for hypertension. Whereas; renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, cardiac output, peripheral resistance are also implicated in hypertension development. It is a wide known considered risk factor not only for cardiovascular diseases but for renal diseases as well. In this review article.....

Introduction. The high prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system of workers in various sectors of the economy, the lack of data on the effects of harmful production factors on the formation of cardiovascular diseases in petrochemical industry workers justify the importance of conducting special studies on these petrochemical complex plants with the aim of assessing cardiovascular risk with the subsequent development of preventive measures. Material and methods. The objects of the study were workers in the production of monomers (ethylene, propylene, ethylbenzene, isoprene, divinyl) of petrochemical enterprises. Hygienic studies of the working conditions of workers included an assessment of the factors of the working environment and the labor process using generally accepted methods. Comprehensive clinical examination of workers included periodic examinations (n = 2634) with calculation of total and relative cardiovascular risk using the SCORE system, using questionnaire data, a Reeder L questionnaire and an in-depth clinical diagnostic medical examination (n = 101) with the definition total cardiovascular risk.

The class of working conditions of workers of the comparison group (locksmith in instrumentation and automation corresponds to the permissible). There were revealed a high prevalence of arterial hypertension and other factors of cardiovascular risk. A higher dependence of the arterial hypertension level on age and length of service in the group of panmen was established when compared to the mechanicians of instrumentation and automation. Using mathematical models of multiple regression, the likely dynamics of the level of arterial hypertension and the left ventricular myocardial mass index were calculated under the influence of increasing age and other risk predictors. Conclusion. The results of a clinical study showed workers with severe arterial hypertension, a high and very high risk of death from cardiovascular disease on the SCORE scale, a high and very high overall cardiovascular risk, signs of dyslipidemia, obesity, high stress levels to require close attention. It is important to timely diagnose lesions of target organs, to conduct rational prevention aimed at reducing risk factors.

Abstract Objectives The present study was designed to explore the relation between ABO blood group and cardiovascular risk factors in the patients attending tertiary care hospital in South India. Materials and Methods One hundred nine patients, each male and female with different cardiovascular diseases, were included in the study and their ABO blood groups were analyzed with the cardiovascular risk factors. A detailed history was taken from all the patients regarding cardiovascular risk factors like high blood pressure, diabetes, and lipidemic. Total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and serum triglycerides were determined for assessing lipidemia. Blood grouping was done using standard tube technique. Red cell and serum grouping was performed and results documented. Association between ABO blood groups and cardiovascular risk factors was done using chi-square test and Spearman’s correlation. Results The distribution of ABO blood groups shows that blood group O (41.28%) was more common in patients followed by group B (29.36%), group A (19.27%), and group AB (10.09%). One-hundred six cases (97.2%) were Rh D positive. A statistically significant difference was observed between gender and total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and BMI with p value <0.05. In the study population, distribution of major cardiovascular risk factors, especially diabetes mellitus and dyslipidaemia, with ABO blood groups shows that there was no significant difference observed between blood groups and these cardiovascular risk factors. However, statistical significance was there between blood group O and hypertension (p = 0.03). Conclusion There was no significant difference between the blood groups and the major cardiovascular risk factors were diabetes and lipids, but there was an association between blood group O and hypertension.

Abstract:
The present review deals with the stages of creation, methods of calculation, and the use of a genetic risk score for coronary heart disease in various populations. The concept of risk factors is generally recognized on the basis of the results of epidemiological studies in the 20th century; according to this concept, the high prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system is due to lifestyle characteristics and associated risk factors. An important and relevant task for the healthcare system is to identify the population segments most susceptible to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The level of individual risk of an unfavorable cardiovascular prognosis is determined by genetic factors in addition to lifestyle factors.

Abstract:
0008 The purpose of the project was to provide assistance to Russia in establishing a national surveillance system for monitoring CVD risk factors. The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, which was developed in the US and is used by all State Health Departments, served as a template for the Russian system. Personal interviews, mail-based and telephone-based surveys were reviewed and considered. Questions were taken from previous Russian, European, and US surveys to collect information on smoking, alcohol use, fruit and vegetable consumption, physical activity, blood pressure, self-reported CVD symptoms and previously diagnosed diseases. This was the first Russian phone-based health survey and was piloted in Moscow where a random sample of 6065 was selected from the 2,560,633 private phone listings. Initial analysis found that in general, prevalence of CVD risk factors was higher than in similar American surveys. The current smoking rate reached 52%, 30% had a BMI below 24 kg/m 2 , 60% reported average daily fruit consumption of less then 1/4 of a pound (200 g) per person in the summer, elevated, untreated blood pressure (more then 140/90 mm Hg) was reported by 25 % while another 10 % received medication for hypertension, 18% of men and 4% of women reported heavy drinking. Though duration of walking was rather high compared with the US (about 90 min per day), only 5 % engaged in other moderate physical activity on a regular basis; 20% of respondents said that they experienced CVD symptoms or were diagnosed with CVD. In general, CVD risk factors were more prevalent among men. Next year 11 additional sites will conduct the survey. These data help fill the gap in public health knowledge related to prevalence of CVD risk factors in Russia and demonstrate the value of establishing a monitoring system. They also indicate that immediate preventive measures are needed to improve the health status of the population.

Abstract:
Introduction. Obesity and cardiovascular diseases are closely related and have a high prevalence in the global population. Workers of coal mining enterprises have an increased risk of developing these pathological conditions due to working conditions and employment schedules. Social and household factors and an unhealthy lifestyle can have a negative impact on metabolic processes that lead to obesity. In this regard, the search for risk factors for these diseases and the elaboration of a prevention system based on them to preserve the health of working groups of the population are relevant. Materials and methods. The study involved three hundred eighty-five workers of coal enterprises in the South of Kuzbass including 244 miners and 141 coal pit workers. The mean age was 46.35±0.34 and 46.98±0.36 years, respectively, p=0.231. The social and household aspects and lifestyle of the workers were revealed by the questionnaire method. Ultrasound investigation of vessels was performed on the General Electric Vivid E9 system. Results. The prevalence of atherosclerosis in obese workers employed in coal pits was higher than in persons with normal weight: 58.8% vs. 40.0%, p=0.035; no such pattern was found among miners. In coal pit workers with arterial hypertension, abdominal obesity was detected in 90.9% of the cases and in 67.0% (p=0.0004) in underground miners. The studied social and household factors, except for hypodynamia, had no a significant impact on the development of obesity. Limitations. The investigation did not include individuals with proven familial hypercholesterolemia, inflammatory vascular diseases and diabetes mellitus. Conclusion. Constitutional obesity increased the atherosclerosis risk in coal pit workers and did not affect on its prevalence in underground miners. Abdominal obesity did not contribute to an increase in the prevalence of atherosclerosis among the examined subjects, but increased the risk of arterial hypertension. Among the studied social and household factors, a significant role in the development of constitutional obesity in coal pit workers is rendered by hypodynamia during non-working hours.

Abstract:
Today, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the main causes of death around the world, including countries under the banner of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The surge in the prevalence of CVDs is predominantly contributed by demographic changes and adoption of sedentary lifestyles together with deficient in physical activity. The objective of this paper is to examine the patterns of CVDs in OIC countries and how this has significantly affected the healthcare system. Relevant data from 56 OIC countries were obtained from the report by World Health Organization (WHO) in 2016. Descriptive content analysis was conducted to see variations in CVDs across income groups, genders and health conditions. The analysis suggests that CVDs are the main cause of mortality, particularly in high income and upper-middle income countries. Tobacco smoking, alcohol intake, high blood pressure and obesity are the common risk factors which contribute to CVDs. Men are known to have high risk factors compared to women. Indeed, the burden of NCDs has impacted not only on the quality of life of affected individuals and their families, but also on the country’s socio-economic system.

Abstract:
From the late fall of 2019 until the beginning of 2020, SARS-CoV-2 infection is becoming the biggest global challenge of health systems worldwide. Characteristic of the encounter with the disease caused by COVID-19 was a certain wandering in the mechanisms of action of the virus, its consequences, and thus in therapy. Various manifestations of the disease confirm the assumption that it is a systemic infection with the respiratory system as an entry route. We were also faced with the fact that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has great implications for the cardiovascular system. Patients with cardiovascular risk factors, including male gender, advanced age, diabetes, hypertension, and obesity, as well as patients with established cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, have been identified as particularly susceptible populations with increased morbidity and mortality from COVID-19. The effects on the cardiovascular system are reminiscent of other diseases caused by this group of viruses. There are biochemical, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic confirmations of functional disorders. It is basically an immune response caused by tissue inflammation, which results in prothrombogenicity as the dominant and biggest problem, coupled with the highest risk of a possible bad outcome. Being a systemic disease with numerous and different repercussions on the cardiovascular system, COVID-19 can lead to the appearance of all cardiovascular diseases that the patient did not have before, or to a significant worsening of the existing cardiovascular disease. The condition after the disease in most cases also means recovery, but great caution is needed due to possible time-distant complications. Since there is a high risk of death in the end, it is necessary to apply all available measures, especially in the field of prevention of thromboembolic complications, as a factor of the greatest risk of a bad outcome.

Abstract:
The mortality of Tomsk people aged from 15 to 74 from diseases of the blood circulation system have been studied for 1990—2001 and main risk factors have been determined. For the 12-year period, the mortality increased in all the main classes of causes of death. The analysis of differences in male and female mortality from individual causes of death shows that cardiovascular diseases and violent death in the active working age are major contributors to mortality differentiation depending on sex. Four risk factors can be separated: high arterial tension, high cholesterol level, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption. They determine 87.5% in total mortality and 58.5% in the years of life with disability. Prophylaxis of mortality from circulatory diseases should be aimed, first of all, at these groups of factors.

Abstract:
Objectives HIV diagnosis rates in men who have sex with men (MSM) began increasing in Australia 10 years ago, and there has been a major resurgence of syphilis. We determined predictors of HIV positivity and seroconversion among MSM in Victoria, Australia. Methods: We conducted a retrospective longitudinal analysis of data from MSM who underwent HIV testing between April 2006 and June 2009 at three primary care clinics. Logistic regression was used to determine predictors of HIV positivity and seroconversion. Results: During the study period, 7857 MSM tested for HIV. Overall HIV positivity was 1.86% (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.6–2.2). There were 3272 repeat testers followed for 4837 person-years (PY); 60 seroconverted and HIV incidence was 1.24 (95% CI: 0.96–1.60) per 100 PY. Independent predictors of HIV seroconversion were: an infectious syphilis diagnosis within the last 2 years (adjusted hazard ratio (AHR) = 2.5, 95% CI: 1.1–5.7), reporting six or more anal sex partners in the past 6 months (AHR = 3.3, 95% CI: 1.8–6.3), reporting an HIV-positive current regular partner (AHR = 3.4, 95% CI: 1.1–10.6) and reporting inconsistent condom use with casual partners in the past 6 months (AHR = 4.4, 95% CI: 1.7–11.5). Conclusion: Our results call for HIV prevention to target high-risk MSM, including men with a recent syphilis diagnosis or a high numbers of partners, men who have unprotected anal sex with casual partners and men in serodiscordant relationships. The HIV incidence estimate will provide a baseline to enable public health officials to measure the effectiveness of future strategies.

Abstract:
Endothelium is one of the largest organ by area and consist of at least one trillion endothelial cells having more than 100 gram weight and covering more than 3000 square meters area in an adult human body. Endothelium interacts with most of the body systems and is implicated in end organ diseases particularly the cardiovascular. The endothelium maintains vascular tone by precisely regulating the vasodilatation and vasoconstriction while effectively providing the adequate supply of blood to the target organs. Factors that affect the endothelium and subsequently cardiovascular system include hypertension, smoking, obesity, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, poor dietary habits and physical inactivity. Endothelial dysfunction is strongly associated with cardiovascular risk factors such as atherosclerosis, elevated level of low density lipoprotein oxidation, cytokine elaboration, up regulation of adhesion molecules, increased cell permeability, platelet aggregation as well as proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscles. Endothelial dysfunction is a pathophysiological term used to indicate diminished production of nitric oxide and an imbalance in endothelial derived contraction and relaxation.

Abstract:
Markers of imaging, structure, and function reflecting vascular damage, integrating a long time accumulation effect of traditional and unrecognized cardiovascular risk factors, can be regarded as surrogate endpoints of target organ damage before the occurrence of clinical events. Prevention of cardiovascular disease requires risk stratification and treatment of traditional risk factors, such as smoking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes. However, traditional risk stratification is not sufficient to provide accurate assessment of future cardiovascular events. Therefore, vascular injury related parameters obtained by ultrasound or other noninvasive devices, as a surrogate parameter of subclinical cardiovascular disease, can improve cardiovascular risk assessment and optimize the preventive treatment strategy. Thus, we will summarize the research progress and clinical application of early assessment technology of vascular diseases in the present review.

Abstract:
Hypertension is one of the major physiological risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, and it affects more than 1 billion adults worldwide, killing 9 million people every year according to World Health Organization. Also, hypertension is associated with increased risk of kidney disease and stroke. Studying the risk factors that contribute to the pathogenesis of hypertension is key to preventing and controlling hypertension. Numerous laboratories around to globe are very active pursuing research studies to delineate the factors, such as the role of immune system, which could contribute to hypertension. There are studies that were conducted on immune-deficient mice for which experimentally induced hypertension has been ameliorated. Thus, there are possibilities that immune reactivity could be associated with the development of certain type of hypertension. Furthermore, interleukin 4 has been associated with the development of pulmonary hypertension, which could lead to right ventricular remodeling. Also, the immune system is involved in valvular and nonvalvular cardiac remodeling. It has been demonstrated that there is a causative relationship between different interleukins and cardiac fibrosis.

Abstract:
Air pollution is associated with a variety of adverse health effects being an important public health issue worldwide. Many studies have demonstrated that air pollutants contribute to the development of diseases (in particular, cardiovascular diseases/CVDs) and increased mortality. The risk of CVDs in air pollution is less than in conventional risks (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia). Meanwhile, this factor is almost ubiquitous, therefore, its significance is high. Airborne pollutants rank first among environmental risk factors for CVDs. Although CVD risk increases with the rise of the concentration and duration of the exposure to air pollutants, their safe levels have not been determined yet. In increased air pollution, enhanced monitoring of CVDs (in particular, in susceptible individuals) and preventive measures are required. This review summarizes recent epidemiological data on the effects of air pollution (mainly with suspended particulate matter) on the cardiovascular system. Mechanisms mediating negative effects of air pollutants (i.e., oxidative stress, inflammation, vegetative imbalance with the predominance of sympathetic stimuli).

The aimof the research is to assess risk factors of damage of the cardiovascular system in patients with primary osteoarthritis with identified coronary atherosclerosis.Materials and methods.52 patients at the mean age 41 [34; 52] were involved in the study. Therewere 37 womenand 15 menamongthem. Planned contrast study of the coronary arteries (on the apparatus ALLURAXperFD20 Philips) were performed to all patients. As a result, hemodynamically insignificant (less than 50%) atherosclerotic stenosis of the heart vessels was verified in this group. In all patients were determined such indicators as: height, weight, waist circumference with the calculation of body mass index by Kettle`s method. The questionnaire was used to assess the presence of risk factors for development of cardiovascular diseases, such as: smoking, family history of cardiovascular diseases, hypodynamia. In addition, all patients had daily monitoring of arterial pressure by the device «Kardiotechnika– 07-AP-3», clinical and biochemical blood tests and the total cardiovascular risk was calculated.Results.Each patient had from 1 to 6 risk factors of cardiovascular diseases,the median was [25-th; 75-th percentiles] 3 [2; 5]. In the group of women family history of cardiovascular diseases, hypodynamia and hypertension met more often the in the group of men (р=0,002). Men with higher frequency demonstrated the presence of bad habits (smoking), high levels of triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins (p=0.0001). The correlation analysis revealed that the incidence of hypertension, hypodynamia and dyslipidemia was associated with the duration of osteoarthritis, the intensity of pain according to visual analog scale and the number of affected joints.Conclusion.The presense of generalized subclinical inflammation in patients with ostheoarthritis together with the classic risk factors of development of cardiovascular diseases, probably mediates the early beginning of atherosclerosis in this category of patients.

Highlights. Unique epidemiological data were obtained on the effectiveness of preventive services of healthcare organizations in relation to cardiovascular diseases, adherence to lifestyle modification recommendations, and presence of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in these citizens.Aim. To assess healthcare services uptake in large industrial Siberian region, as well as the adherence of population to lifestyle modification recommendations (epidemiological data).Methods. The study included 729 residents of Kemerovo and Kemerovo region. The assessment of the main risk factors for cardiovascular diseases was carried out in accordance with the Russian recommendations for cardiovascular prevention. Uptake and adherence to lifestyle modification recommendations was assessed using the Health System Assessment Questionnaire of the International Prospective Study of Urban and Rural Epidemiology.Results. Among the 729 study participants, the urban population is represented by 67.3%, rural – 32.6%. The population was majority represented by women (69.7%). The mean age of participants was 59.0 (51.0; 65.0) years. Smokers accounted for 18.6% of the participants, the majority represented by men (p = 0.000). Excessive weight was more often observed in women (p = 0.013), the mean body mass index in women was 29.5 kg/m2 . The mean values of the analyzed laboratory parameters (cholesterol, low- and highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose) were within the range of normal values. Previously diagnosed hypertension was noted in 64.6% of the participants, diabetes in 12%, coronary heart disease in about 7%, stroke in 1.6% of the participants. Assessment of cardiovascular risk according to SCORE scale showed that 17% of participants were at low risk, 50% – moderate risk in, and 29.2% – high-very high risk. Upon visiting healthcare provider, only 38.1% of subjects received recommendations for lifestyle changes. Respondents were frequently given recommendations to adjust their diet, followed by recommendations regarding weight loss, increased physical activity; smoking cessation and lower alcohol consumption were recommended less often. Respondents changed their lifestyle significantly more often in accordance with the recommendations received at the time of visit (p = 0.000); out of them, 56.7% had moderate cardiovascular risk, 26.7% had high and very high risk, and low risk according to SCORE – 16.7%. However, study participants were more likely to not follow received recommendations (p = 0.000).Conclusion. Due to high uptake of healthcare services in the population, high prevalence of risk factors and low adherence of the population to prevention, it can be concluded that the current model of prevention does not work. Innovative tools are needed to manage risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and positively change a person`s lifestyle.

Objectives to assess the effect of the gender of patients on the severity of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases using specialized software. Material and methods. In order to identify and correct the severity of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases in the population, in 2018-2019, the data of residents of the Republic of Tatarstan were registered in specialized software. The severity of risk factors was assessed before the start of the study and after one year. The research included two groups of persons: men and women. Results. In 2018, the program "Cardiovascular Risk Management" had registered the data of 32,746 residents of the Republic of Tatarstan aged from 18 to 80 years. The risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases were identified in 22,999 individuals, where there were 7,188 men and 15,712 women. The patient's data included gender, age, history of coronary artery disease, smoking, physical activity, blood pressure, the levels of cholesterol, glucose and blood creatinine. The data on the severity of the risk factors in both groups were statistically processed. Based on the data obtained, the supervised persons received recommendations for correcting their lifestyle. In 2019, an assessment of the severity of risk factors was carried out in persons included in the system in 2018. Conclusion. We found a statistically significant difference in the results of managing risk factors in men and women. The software "Management of cardiovascular risks" is recognized as an effective tool for managing risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases and reducing mortality from diseases of the circulatory system.

Abstract:
Introduction. The increase in the incidence of cardiovascular pathology (CP) on the background of the increasing extremity of environmental factors observed in recent years requires careful analysis of the relationship between the population’s appealability of this pathology for medical assistance and factors of terrestrial and space weather in various climatic and geographical conditions. Material and methods. A retrospective analysis of the frequency of ambulance calls (AC) to CP patients, living in the foothill areas, relative to concomitant meteo- and geliogeomagnetic factors was carried out. Results. There are gender-specific, as well as seasonally specific correlations between the nosologies studied (transitory ischemic attacks (TIA), Ischemic Cardiac Disease (ICD) due to angina) and investigated factors. Significant fluctuations of these factors, their sharp inter-day fluctuations, and interaction effects contribute to an increase in the frequency of calls to the ambulance. In the dynamics of the frequency of calls, the presence of the seasonal component is traced with an emphasis on the winter period, when a spastic type of weather is formed against the background of a decrease in the average daily temperature and an increase in the atmospheric pressure, which has a negative effect on the cardiovascular system, increases risk of cardiovascular accidents. Patients with TIA have high values of systolic BP, Diastolic BP, Pulsed BP, mean BP. Against the background of “acute” meteorological conditions (IWP > 25), Diastolic BP increases, even more, the systolic and cardiac output is significantly reduced. In ICD patients, suffering from angina attacks, the maximum number of ambulance calls is recorded during the winter period due to the negative impact of both the temperature factor and the entire complex of meteorological factors in general. Attacks occurrence in the summer is minimal. Conclusion. The data obtained allows predicting the adverse effects of the terrestrial and space weather impact on the human cardiovascular system and taking preventive measures in a timely manner.

Abstract:
Abstract There are several risk factors leading to the development and progression of CVD, but one of the most prominent is a sedentary lifestyle. A healthy lifestyle can be characterized by both obesity and consistently low levels of physical activity. Lifestyle interventions that aim to increase physical activity and decrease obesity are attractive therapeutic methods to combat most non-congenital types of CVD. Aging is the another major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which are the leading cause of death in the United States. Epidemiological studies clearly show that aging itself is the major risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Most of the research efforts on prevention of these diseases have ignored the mechanisms underlying cardiac and vascular effects of aging, and have focused, instead, on the development of interventions that target conventional cardiovascular risk factors. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is frequently used in sports training. The effects on cardiorespiratory and muscle systems have led scientists to consider its application in the field of cardiovascular diseases. HIIT is defined as high intensity exercise for a defined period of time interspersed with rest periods (moderate light intensity or complete rest). This literature review was conducted to determine the correlation between high intensity interval training with the cardiovascular system and cardiac anti-aging. Keywords: Cardiac anti-aging, cardiovascular system, cardiovascular disease, high intensity interval training.

Abstract:
Most cardiovascular diseases are caused by atherosclerosis, which is a result of interactions between risk factors such as gender, age, blood lipid concentrations, blood pressure, glucose tolerance, adiposity, physical activity and cigarette smoking. Identification of risk factors is the first step in cardiovascular disease prevention. As health workers contribute significantly to cardiovascular morbidity, the aim of our study was to analyze prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and to assess the level of mentioned risk in health workers employed in Health Centre Beocin. The study group consisted of 50 health workers. Obesity was evaluated according to BMI and body fat (BF%) values, while central obesity was defined using waist circumference. Serum lipid concentrations and glycaemia were used in metabolic profile definition. The level of physical activity was assessed using IPAQ, and information about smoking status and family history of cardiovascular diseases was obtained from self-report. Framingham point-scoring system was used to predict the risk for development of coronary heart disease in the 10-year period. Overweight was found in 36%, and obesity in 18% subjects. 42% of examined subjects had higher fat mass, while 24% of them had obesity. Central fat accumulation was observed in 50% subjects. We registered 56% smokers, 70% subjects with positive family history, 28% subjects with hypertension, and 56% subjects with dyslipidemia. According to IPAQ results 20% of exanimate subjects were minimally active and 70% were insufficiently active. Estimated risk of coronary heart disease was 7.38%, and 10% subjects had risk over 20%. In spite of lower cardiovascular risk level, our results showed high prevalence of overweight, smoking and physical inactivity in health workers, which suggests the importance of their own lifestyle modification. It should be the first step in increasing motivation of their patients.

Abstract:
The article reviews the recent scientific literature and the authors’ studies on this topic. Occupational conditions and psychological factors have been shown to play an important role in the etiopathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Their effect is often indirect, through damage to the central nervous, respiratory, and neuroendocrine systems. Hot climate in the workplace and intense infrared radiation cause the water and electrolyte imbalance and chronic hyperthermia and manifests as neurovegetative dystonia. The long-term effects of low temperatures condition ischemic lesions in circulatory system, trophic organ destruction. The influence of ultrahigh-frequency electromagnetic radiation on the cardiovascular system is directly related to the central nervous system and neurohumoral lesions. “Microwave disease” often manifests as polymorphic dystonia. Exposure to occupational vibration causes “white finger” syndrome or Raynaud’s phenomenon together with cerebral vascular lesions. Recent studies have confirmed that noise as a chronic stressor causes the imbalance in the central and vegetative nervous systems and changes in homeostasis. Noise increases catecholamine and cholesterol concentration in blood, has an effect on plasma lipoprotein levels, increases heart rate, arterial blood pressure, and risk of myocardial infarction. Psychophysiological changes caused by long-term stress influence constant pathological changes in the central nervous system, endocrine and cardiovascular systems. The long-term effect of psychogenic stressors is very important in the etiopathogenesis of psychosomatic diseases.

Abstract:
Modern scientific approaches give clinicians an advantage in using additional tools and methods for assisting in clinical assessment and expanding their capabilities for classifying patients according to risk factors for cardiovascular complications. Biomarkers are a simple tool that allows to identify and classify people with different risk degree, quickly and accurately diagnose the condition of the disease, effectively predict and control treatment. Therefore, the identification and study of biomarkers is a serious and promising approach to understanding and treating cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Among a wide range of biomarkers, the genetic and metabolic markers is of high importance. Cardio-metabolomics is a new direction in cardiovascular science that allows researchers to study changes in metabolome and metabolic networks in diseases of the cardiovascular system in order to better understand their pathophysiological mechanism. Thus, the study of metabolome can provide important information about the pathogenesis of CVDs, as well as offer the possibility of identifying new CVD biomarkers.

Abstract:
A convincing deal of evidence supports the fact that severe psoriasis is associated with cardiovascular diseases. However, the precise underlying mechanisms linking psoriasis and cardiovascular diseases are not well defined. Psoriasis shares common pathophysiologic mechanisms with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular (CV) risk factors. In particular, polymorphism in the IL-23R and IL-23 genes, as well as other genes involved in lipid and fatty-acid metabolism, renin–angiotensin system and endothelial function, have been described in patients with psoriasis and with cardiovascular risk factors. Moreover, systemic inflammation in patients with psoriasis, including elevated serum proinflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-17, and IL-23) may contribute to an increased risk of atherosclerosis, hypertension, alteration of serum lipid composition, and insulin resistance. The nonlinear and intricate interplay among various factors, impacting the molecular pathways in different cell types, probably contributes to the development of psoriasis and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Future research should, therefore, aim to fully unravel shared and differential molecular pathways underpinning the association between psoriasis and CVD.

Abstract:
The review focuses on analysis of domestic and foreign literature sources concentrating on influence exerted by occupa-tional factors and factors related to labor process on prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system (CSD) among medical workers. At present, specific features typical for occupational activities performed by medical workers are proven to be among major causes of high CSD prevalence among them. Experts have established most common occupational factors and labor-related factors that are able to induce and stimulate development of cardiovascular pathology. Labor intensity associated with neuro-emotional loads, high responsibility, round-the-clock working regime and night shifts (hazard category 3.2–3.3) is estab-lished to have a leading role among adverse labor-related factors for medical workers. Other significant contributions are made by adverse chemicals and biological agents, noise and ultrasound, laser exposure and ionizing radiation. Some authors showed that CSD prevalence was considerably higher among medical workers than among people employed in other industries. The highest CSD prevalence was detected among medical workers with the most adverse working conditions (hazard category 3.2–3.3). A high degree of occupational conditionality for CSD is typical for surgeons, therapists, and phthisiatricians. Emergency doctors run the highest risk of CSD (RR = 3.1; EF = 67.7 %). Assessment cardiovascular risks according to the SCORE system revealed that approximately 15 % medical workers older than 40 ran moderate cardiovascular risks; medical workers older than 50, high (20.0–22.0 %) or extremely high (10.0–12.5 %) total risks of death due to CSD.

Abstract:
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body that participates in the construction of bones and teeth, nerve impulse transmission, intracellular signaling, hormone secretion, muscle contraction, coagulation, ensuring normal heart rhythm and physiological values of blood pressure. Excessive calcium concentration, predominantly caused by improper use of supplements, predisposes to the development of cardiovascular disease. High serum calcium induces reprogramming and differentiation of smooth muscle cells into an osteoblast-like phenotype, translocation of prohypertrophic cardiomyocyte transcription factors, compromise of diastolic relaxation of the myocardium and necrosis of its contractile girdle, stimulation of coagulation reactions, stimulation of platelet aggregation, hemodynamic changes and metabolic abnormalities. Acute intoxication with calcium supplements results in an increase in blood pressure. Chronic consumption of excessive calcium concentration predisposes to atherosclerosis and calcification of blood vessels, heart attack and stroke, hypertrophy and heart failure, and heart rhythm disorders. There is a need to strengthen the response and role of the health system in informing the public about the side effects of excessive calcium consumption, limiting the widespread prescribing of supplements, as well as a possible comprehensive reassessment of the same.

Abstract Objectives Gardeners may have better health outcomes, and consume more fruits and vegetables (F&V), than non-gardeners. However, this evidence is mainly based on small, non-representative samples. The purpose of this study was to understand differences in dietary and health outcomes between gardeners and non-gardeners using physical activity data from the 2019 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Methods Adults (age 18+) with complete self-reported physical activity (PA) data were included. Participants were grouped as those who: (1) did not engage in any PA (non-exercisers), (2) reported gardening as their first or second PA (gardeners), or (3) reported any PA other than gardening (exercisers). Logistic and linear regression models identified associations between cardiovascular disease risk factors (self-reported, yes/no for body mass index (BMI)≥ 25 kg/m2, high cholesterol, or hypertension) or F&V intake (times/day, continuous) and group after controlling for age, race, sex, and education level. Results The sample (n = 396,261) was 55% women, majority white (81%), with more than a high school education (66%), and a mean age of 51 years. It was 7.6% gardeners, 65.2% other exercisers, and 27.2% non-exercisers. Gardeners were significantly more likely than exercisers or non-exercisers to be women (60.7% v. 49.3% and 53.4%, P &lt; 0.001), white (85.2% v. 74.7% and 71.2%, P &lt; 0.001), and aged 65+ (36.9% v. 18.8%, 25.9%, P &lt; 0.001). Gardeners consumed more F&V than exercisers and non-exercisers (3.0, v. 2.9, 2.2 times/day, respectively, P &lt; 0.01). Similar significant differences were observed when we further adjusted for aforementioned covariates. Compared to gardeners, non-exercisers were more likely to have a BMI ≥ 25 (adjusted OR (aOR) = 1.2, P &lt; 0.01), high cholesterol (aOR = 1.1, P &lt; 0.01), and hypertension (aOR = 1.2, P &lt; 0.01). Exercisers were less likely than gardeners to have each of these conditions (aOR = 0.93 for BMI ≥ 25; aOR = 0.88 for high cholesterol; and aOR = 0.87 for hypertension; all P &lt; 0.01). Conclusions Gardeners consume F&V more frequently than both exercisers and non-exercisers and they have fewer CVD risk factors than non-exercisers. Given these CVD preventative benefits, gardening should be recommended as a PA particularly for those with diet-related chronic diseases. Funding Sources None.

Abstract:
Today’s sedentary lifestyle and eating habits have been implicated as some of the causes of the increased incidence of several diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular diseases. However, environmental pollutants have also been identified as another possible cause for this increase in recent decades. The constant human exposure to plastics has been raising attention regarding human health, particularly when it comes to phthalates. These are plasticizers used in the manufacture of industrial and consumer products, such as PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) plastics and personal care products, with endocrine-disrupting properties, as they can bind molecular targets in the body and interfere with hormonal function. Since these compounds are not covalently bound to the plastic, they are easily released into the environment during their manufacture, use, or disposal, leading to increased human exposure and enhancing health risks. In fact, some studies have related phthalate exposure with cardiovascular health, having already shown a positive association with the development of hypertension and atherosclerosis in adults and some cardiometabolic risk factors in children and adolescents. Therefore, the main purpose of this review is to present and relate the most recent studies concerning the implications of phthalates effects on the cardiovascular system.

The review presents the main aspects of the relationship between psychoemotional factors, hostility, anger and cardiovascular diseases. The first chapter describes the main historical stages in the study of this problem, starting from the Middle Ages and ending with fundamental research of the 19-20 centuries. In the second part, the authors demonstrated that hostility/anger are a risk factor for the CVD development and affect the prognosis and course of CVD (hypertension, ischemic heart disease, various cardiac arrhythmias, etc.). In the third chapter, there were studies that found that high rates of hostility/ anger reduced the effectiveness of cardiovascular therapy. In the fourth part, there are the main correlation mechanisms of negative emotions, hostility/anger and the cardiovascular system, carried out through the relationships with the activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal, autonomic nervous system, platelet activation, with the changes in the risk factors characteristics etc. In the final chapter, the authors suggested prospects for further study of the problem, probably associated with the assessment of behavioral interventions, pharmacological or complex effects on the severity of hostility/anger to reduce CVD mortality in individuals with high rates of hostility / anger.

Abstract:
Cardiovascular disease represents various diseases associated with heart, lymphatic system and circulatory system of human body. World Health Organisation (WHO) has reported that cardiovascular diseases have high mortality rate and high risk to cause various disabilities. Most prevalent causes for cardiovascular diseases are behavioural and food habits like tobacco intake, unhealthy diet and obesity, physical inactivity, ageing and addiction to drugs and alcohol are to name few. Factors such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, Stress and other ailments are at high risk to cardiovascular diseases. There have been different techniques to predict the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in general and heart disease in particular from time to time by implementing variety of algorithms. Detection and management of cardiovascular diseases can be achieved by using computer based predictive tool in data mining. By implementing data mining based techniques there is scope for better and reliable prediction and diagnosis of heart diseases. In this study we studied various available techniques like decision Tree and its variants, Naive Bayes, Neural Networks, Support Vector Machine, Fuzzy Rules, Genetic Algorithms, and Ant Colony Optimization to name few. The observations illustrated that it is difficult to name a single machine learning algorithm for the diagnosis and prognosis of CVD. The study further contemplates on the behaviour, selection and number of factors required for efficient prediction.
