Structural and functional indicators of echocardiography in healthy representatives of indigenous and non-organized urbanized population of Gornaya Shoria

Aim: To study the structural and functional parameters of echocardiography in healthy representatives of the urban Shor population, including men and women.Material and Methods. The study included 96 indigenous and 66 non-indigenous urbanized residents of Gornaya Shoria, matched by age and divided according to ethnic and gender characteristics into 4 groups: indigenous men (n=40), indigenous women (n=56), non-indigenous men (n=32), and non-indigenous women (n=34). All individuals underwent echocardiographic study. Body surface area-indexed left and right heart structural parameters, pulse wave Doppler data, data on propagation atrioventricular flow rates, and spectral Doppler tissue data were studied.Results. According to the results of anthropometry, men and women of Shor nationality had a lower body mass and body surface area compared with the corresponding values in men and women of non-indigenous nationality (p
