Жестокость магистральных сосудов при ИБС: связь с атеросклерозом коронарных артерий, прогностическая значимость, возможности выявления и коррекции в амбулаторной практике
Диссертация
Имеющиеся рекомендации по профилактике ССЗ в основном фокусируются на выраженности модифицируемых факторов рискадислипидемия, гипертония, курение, нарушение углеводного обмена. Построенные на основе длительных эпидемиологических исследований шкалы, такие как Фрамингемская и EURO SCORE, в значительной мере облегчают планирование первичных профилактических мероприятий. Однако формируя стратегию… Читать ещё >
