Abstract

The paper provides the results of a prospective epidemiological study of the prevalence of arterial hypertension in three populations: Chukotka's aborigens and migrants and a Novosibirsk's population. The most unfavourable epidemiological situation for arterial hypertension was found to be in migrant males aged 30-59 years. A medical examination is proposed among young migrants in the first years of adaptation in the North.
