Abstract

The examination was conducted on 630 normal males when at rest in a sanatorium, their permanent jobs being characterized by different nervous and emotional strain (pilots, ground aviation specialists). The lipid metabolism parameters of the pilots appeared to differ from the normal ones. The differences in the metabolic indices of the two profession groups are traced both in the younger, and in the older age-groups, which gives ground to believe that the typical peculiarities of the metabolism are formed in individuals with nervous-emotional jobs as early as in the young age under the effect of professional factors. This should be kept in mind when undertaking preventive measures against atherosclerosis in persons working under high nervous and emotional strain.
