Abstract

According to studies conducted in recent years, there is a harmful effect of harmful chemicals in the environment on the cardiovascular system. The level of blood pressure is a very important hemodynamic indicator, the level of which provides primary information about diseases of the cardiovascular system. In this study, the indicators of total body size, blood pressure and heart rate were measured in adolescents living in unfavorable environmental conditions of the Aral Sea region. In adolescents of both sexes, body weight deficiency occupied a significant share. In girls and boys, the excess body weight was about 5%. Obesity was not observed in adolescents of both sexes. Hypotension was detected in 17.64% of the females studied by categories of systolic blood pressure, and there were no cases of hypertension among the females. And in males, hypotension of 8.70% and hypertension of 4.35% were observed. According to the categories of diastolic blood pressure, hypotension of 2.95% and hypertension of 8.82% were detected in females, hypotension of 8.69% and hypertension of 8.70% in males.
