The frequency of the arterial hypertension and the lipid disturbances have been studied in 29 healthy children with family history of early coronary disease in a 10 year period. The evaluation in arterial hypertension (AH) has been carried out by a WHO methodology. In boys the frequency of AH is 56% and remains in the 10 years follow-up at 80%, while in girls it is 70% and falls to 30% in the follow-up. The hypercholesterolemia established in childhood continues into young age – 100% in cases of men and 80% in female. Increased levels of triglycerides in childhood are normalized later. The apoproteins and lipoprotein “a” levels are within the normal limits. Both genders have lower HDL-cholesterol (x=4,51 mmol/l) in the standard risk limits. The obtained results confirm the data of persistence of precursors of early atherosclerosis development from childhood to later age and the necessity of early prophylaxis.
