[Stiffness of the arterial wall and predicted vascular age as a predictor of cardiovascular disease when stress-induced hypertension in the military personnel].

Stiffness of the arterial wall and predicted vascular age as a predictor of cardiovascular disease when stress-induced hypertension in the military personnel. On the basis of the study of 156 men aged 30-55 years are considered diagnostic methods for stress-induced hypertension in the military personnel. Furthermore, using modern diagnostic methods determined stress effect on the development of stress-induced hypertension, and also the risk of cardiovascular diseases. In order to detect early signs of atherosclerosis used sphygmography, by means of which was determined by cardio ankle vascular index (CA VI), as well as the calculated vascular age. The study proposed a set of organizational, diagnostic and therapeutic measures to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases among military personnel exposed to occupational stressful load.
