Appreciating the association between age and classic CRFs is believed to boost all potential benefits of prevention.Purpose: Assessment of the prevalence of single and clustered CRFs and their association with age.Patients and Methods: The survey involved 4735 people (33.6% men) who were PONS project attendees aged 45– 64. The study protocol comprised the Health Status Questionnaire, general medical examination, anthropometric measurements, and blood and urine sampling. The prevalence of single and clustered CRFs (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and obesity) in the incrementally split age groups was calculated. The incidence rate of CRFs, against their absence, was determined by Poisson regression models with robust standard errors.Results: The prevalence of CRFs was established in 90% of the respondents. Except dyslipidemia and ≥ 1 CRFs, prevalence of risk factors increased with age, although this trend was the weakest in men. In the total group, and in women, prevalence of dyslipidemia and ≥ 1 CRFs was unrelated to age, whereas in men, it was on the rise in the younger age groups. The incidence rate of CRFs was strongly related to age, and, with the exception of dyslipidemia, was higher in the older age groups.Conclusion: Cardiovascular risk factors are common in the adult population, while their prevalence and clustering are more prevalent in seniors. Apart from dyslipidemia, the risk of CRFs is appreciably age-related, and higher in seniors.Keywords: age, cardiovascular disease, risk factors, prevalence, public healthMacek PZak MTerek-Derszniak MBiskup MCiepiela PKrol HSmok-Kalwat JGozdz SDove Medical Pressarticleagecardiovascular diseaserisk factorsprevalencepublic healthGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 15, Pp 161-169 (2020)
