The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of risk factors for @entity65 in @entity1 treated for @entity301 ( @entity301 ) at Department of Medicine, Zabok General Hospital during the 2000-2006 period. @entity65 are a group of diseases that occur due to arterial. The risk factors that lead to the development and occurrence of @entity65 are @entity101 , cigarette smoking, hyperholesterolemia, @entity2298 , @entity6 and positive family history. Additional factors favoring the occurrence of @entity65 include @entity2973 , inadequate physical activity, and emotional stress. Data on all @entity1 hospitalized and diagnosed with @entity301 at Department of Medicine, Zabok General Hospital during the 2000-2006 period were analyzed for the prevalence of risk factors for @entity301 , i.e. @entity101 , cigarette smoking, @entity1007 , @entity2298 , @entity6 and positive family history of @entity65 . @entity1007 was defined by a @entity165 level higher than 5.1 mmol/L, @entity101 from history data and blood pressure measurement on admission greater than 140/90 mmHg, @entity6 from history data, and @entity2298 by a @entity412 level greater than 1.7 mmol/L. Information on heredity and cigarette smoking was collected from history and a questionnaire filled out on admission. All laboratory values were determined on @entity1 admission to the hospital. Analysis of the risk factors for @entity301 recorded in @entity1 from Zagorje County during the 2000-2006 period revealed @entity101 to be the most common risk factor in our @entity1 . According to sex, @entity301 was found to show a male preponderance. According to age at admission, @entity301 predominated in the > 70 age group, which accounted for one third of all @entity1 , followed by a comparable proportion of the 50-60 and 60-70 age groups, i.e. still active population groups. As @entity301 is one of the leading health threats worldwide, estimated to remain so at least by 2020, it is fully justified to invest all efforts in the study of @entity65 . New research projects should be focused on the prevention and early detection of the disease, improvement of diagnosis procedures, introduction of novel therapeutic options, use of new concepts, and due survey of the measures taken. @entity301 poses great socioeconomic burden upon every community in industrialized societies because of the ever younger age at onset. Actions should be taken to improve awareness of the @entity301 risks and morbidity in the population at large, stimulating favorable lifestyle and dietary modifications, and one's own health awareness, in order to upgrade the control of risk factors for and morbidity of @entity65 .

The prevalence of XXXX risk factors in @entity1 from Croatian Zagorje County treated at Department of Medicine, Zabok General Hospital from 2000 to 2006.
