The prevalence of risk factors in civil servants living in Mexico City was investigated prospectively in 1942 individuals. Risk factors tended to increase with age and in some cases were related to sex. Hypertension was found to be as high as fifteen percent in the older age groups despite the fact that the critical limit was 160/95 in all decades. Hypercholesterolemia was found to be close to the rates reported in the so-called developed countries. Diabetes mellitus varied between 1 and 14%. Obesity and hypertrygliceridemia were also common findings and related. Smoking was independent of sex. Prevalence of the association between the major risk factors are presented. These data, are in agreement with the death causes among civil servants and indicate that preventive programs for ischemic heart disease are needed in civil servants in Mexico City.
