The indicators of lipoprotein metabolism and their association with psycho-emotional factors in healthy individuals

The article deals with studying indicators of lipoprotein metabolism in relationship with psycho-emotional factors in healthy individuals. The sampling included 107 healthy individuals of able-bodied age from organized population (46 males and 61 females) with mean age made up to 43.4±10.8 years. All examined individuals were applied clinical psychological study using such questionnaires as Spielberger-Khanin test, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression cale (USA), visual analogue scale-modified version of Dembo-Rubinstein technique, social frustration scale, Holmes-Rahe social adaptation test. To analyze indicators of lipidogram venous blood was taken. The most of lipid indicators were higher in individuals with clinically significant levels of depression, personal anxiety and accumulated stress independently of gender. In female group statistical reliability was reached by mean indicators of total cholesterol, cholesterol lipoproteins of low density, cholesterol not bounded with lipoproteins of high density. In male group statistical reliability was reached by ratio apoB/apoA. The most prevalence of dislipoproteinemia was established in male group and at that reliable differences were reached by rate of hypertriglyceridemia and higher level of apoB100. The rate of personal anxiety and clinically significant stress measured by Holmes-Rahe scale was reliably higher in group of examined females and made it up to 75% and 36% correspondingly. In both groups association of psycho-emotional factors with indicators of lipid profile was established. At that, in males the study detected an independent relationship between both of level of personal anxiety and social frustration and apoproteins and between cumulated stress and level of cholesterol not bound with lipoproteins of high density as well. In females association of accumulated stress according Holmes-Rahe scale with level of total cholesterol and atherogenity index was established. The study data indicate at necessity to determine means of development of complex primary prevention of stress-induced disorders of lipoprotein metabolism with consideration for psycho-emotional factors and gender characteristics of their effect.
