Cardiovascular Diseases.

At present scientists consider that much attention must be paid to the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. They are, first of all, arterial hypertension, then atherosclerosis, particularly of the coronary arteries, whose gravest complication is infarction of the myocardium and lastly, cardiac insufficiency caused by various diseases of the heart.

Mass scale epidemiological check-ups of population show that people contract coronary insufficiency and hypertension from 40 to 60 years of age. At the same time, nowadays one frequently meets coronary insufficiency and infarction of the myocardium in young people of 20-30 years of age. Hypertension, especially symptomatic hypertension, which is a symptom of diseases of some organs or systems, for example, of the kidneys or endocrine glands, may set in at an even earlier age than that.

Considerable headway has been registered lately in the diagnostics of symptomatic hypertension. Methods of diagnostics have been improved to the extent when it is possible to discover symptomatic hypertensions which 10-15 years ago could be found only in 5-6 per cent of patients - in 23 per cent of the patients suffering from arterial hypertension. This is of great importance for the successful combating of arterial hypertension, because the knowledge of the cause of hypertension makes it easier to prescribe its successful treatment.

Definite success has also been achieved in the treatment of atherosclerosis, coronary insufficiency and infarction of the myocardium which are closely related to it.
