Psychological personality traits, some cardiovascular risk factors, and cerebral hemodynamics: their association in regard to 10-year risk of arterial hypertension in young men
Abstract
Aim. To study associations among risk factors (RF) of cardiovascular disease (CVD) (increased body mass index, BMI; left ventricular hypertrophy, LVH; increased serum level of total cholesterol, TCH; alcohol abuse), psychological traits and cerebral hemodynamics parameters in healthy men aged 20-29 years, in regard to 10-year risk of arterial hypertension (AH) development. Material and methods. During 10-year follow-up, among 886 initially healthy males aged 20-29 years, AH developed in 80 (9%). According to Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MPI), two psychologically different groups were identified. FR and psychological trait effects on AH incidence were studied in regression analysis. Results. By MPI profile, two groups were different in scales of correction, pessimism, rigidity, anxiety, individualism, and introversion. AH incidence was affected by: personality traits mentioned above, alcohol intake, BMI, TCH, CVD in family anamnesis, LVH, cerebral vascular dystonia, low physical activity out of work. MPI scales correlated with alcohol intake, BMI, and TCH. Conclusion. Identified psychological personality traits could be regarded as AH RF in men aged 20-29 years. CVD RF and rheoencephalography parameters might be divided into psychological reactivity-related (alcohol intake, BMI, TCH), and unrelated (CVD in family anamnesis, cerebrovascular dystonia, and low physical activity out of work).
