[Importance of the occupational factor in the realization of influences that induce atherogenic disorders of lipid metabolism].
The phenotype was determined and the concentration of the main classes of lipids was studied in blood serum of 248 engineers and other technical workers (ETW). High prevalence of hyperproteinemia, type IV in particular, was revealed among the administrative group fo ETW whose work is associated with marked neuro-emotional stress and high personal responsibility. This occupational factor promoted and levelled the age shifts in lipid metabolism and contributed to the realization of the hereditary determined disorders of lipid metabolism.
