Kardiologiia ; 51(11): 52-9, 2011.
Article in Ru | MEDLINE | ID: mdl-22117771
Prevalence of distressor personality traits and coronary behavioral type was studied in 943 patients (774 men and 169 women) with clinical forms of atherosclerosis of various localization. Intermediate behavioral type AB prevailed (69.9%), while types A (25.3%) and B (4.8%) were less frequent. Patients with type B more frequently had involvement of several vascular beds. They also had greater intima-media thickness, and lower left ventricular ejection fraction. Patients with type B behavior were characterized by higher level of distressor personality traits (<0.00001). Rate of type D personality in patients with type B behavior (44.4%) was higher than in patients with behavior types AB (21.7%) and A (8.3%). Reverse correlations were noted between pronouncedness of "coronary" behavior and number of involved vascular beds and the presence of distressor personality traits (personality type D, levels of depression and anxiety).
