[Complex analysis of risk factors of hypertension in subjects involved in managerial activity].

We performed complex analysis of genetic and nongenetic factors facilitating development of arterial hypertension in subjects involved in managerial activity and revealed peculiarities of dermatoglyphic phenotype of susceptibility to this type of pathology. By means of methods of pattern recognition we assessed power and character of effect of each of investigated risk factors. Using mathematical model we elaborated prognosis of efficacy of various preventive procedures. Basing on results of this study we created system of criteria for formation of a group of elevated risk of hypertension and system of measures aimed at prevention of cardiovascular diseases in subjects involved in neuro-emotional labor.

[Hygienic aspects of the production of asbestos substitutes].

Due to the high level aggressiveness of asbestos, more attempts have been made in the recent years to replace asbestos by other artificial mineral fibres. In this connection, the labour conditions were studied in the basalt and carbon fibres processing sites. The major occupational hazards of these sites included basalt and carbon fibres dusts, heating microclimate in some working zones and physical overload. An intratracheal experiment revealed a lower degree of fibrinogenicity of the basalt and carbon fibres as compared to chrysotile asbestos. The number of the induced mesothelioma in the intraperitoneal introduction of basalt and carbon fibres was markedly lower than in case with chrysotile asbestos. Hygienically, asbestos should be replaced wherever possible, and the dust control measures should by no means be inferior to those with asbestos.
