Abstract
Objective : to carry out the analysis of the prevalence of the main risk factors for the development of chronic noncommunicable diseases within the framework of conducting medical examinations (on the example of a medical organization in Stavropol). Materials and methods: the cohort study was conducted at the clinical base of the Department of Polyclinic Therapy of the Stavropol State Medical University. During the period from January to June 2025, 1,576 people aged 35–74 underwent medical examinations. Of these, 43.7% (689) were men, and 56.3% (887) were women; 51.7% were of working age. During the first stage of the preventive medical examination, participants completed questionnaires and underwent anthropometric measurements, blood pressure assessment, and laboratory and instrumental examinations. Results: 21.3% of those who underwent medical examinations were considered healthy (group 1), 36.4% had risk factors for chronic noncommunicable diseases (group 2), and 42.3% had diseases (groups 3A and 3B). Conclusion: conducting medical examinations among the adult population allows for the detection of chronic non-communicable diseases, risk factors for their development, timely establishment of dispensary supervision, and implementation of preventive measures aimed at strengthening health, increasing active longevity, and prolonging a person’s ability to work.
