Using the method of multi-dimensional statistical analysis in the evaluation of relations between the coronary score and risk factors in 120 men with ischaemic heart disease type stable angine, and in 30 men in a control group the authors revealed: age is a significant negative discriminator of the presence and indicator of the severity of atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries, cholesterol is a statistically significant positive independent discriminator of the presence and indicator of the severity of atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries, HDL-cholesterol is a significant negative independent indicator of the severity of the atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries, triacylglycerols are a positive indicator of the severity of the atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries only at the borderline of statistical significance, Broca's index of relative body weight is a positive discriminator of atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries only at the borderline of significance, there is a statistically significant positive additive relationship of quantitative risk factors with the atherosclerotic narrowing of coronary arteries, physical activity is a significant positive discriminator of the presence of atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries, the oral glucose tolerance test is a positive discriminator of the presence of the atherosclerotic narrowing of the coronary arteries.
