It has been shown with special reference to the studied risk factors of coronary heart disease that at present a differentiated approach to the evaluation of epidemiological and experimental data is required. The pathogenetic interpretation of the data may seem relatively obvious, whereas the practical evaluation of individual risk of health loss and death as well as preventive measures are not effective and attractive enough for an individual subject. Introduction of individual prognosis and preventive programs should be based by means of analysis of the benefit and losses ratio due to those programs.
