Sažetak
During 1976 a clinical-epidemiological survey was carried out in a population sample aged 22-41 years. The sample consisted of 614 men and 633 women who were divided into seven groups according to occupation. Medical diagnoses were classified into 105 categories. The smallest average number of chronic diseases per male subject was recorded among intellectuals (1.3), followed by administrative-technical staff, farmers, skilled workers and unskilled workers (2.0). For women the order was a little different: the smallest number of diagnoses per person was found among intellectuals, then among administrative-technical staff, housewives, skilled workers and unskilled workers, while the highest number related to agricultural workers (2.2). The number of »all diagnoses« which also includes the complaints without an objective finding and various body impairments came to 4.0-5.2 per person and it was more frequent among manual than among intellectual workers. The data about the prevalence of certain diagnostic categories are given in tables. Significant differences with regard to occupation are noticeable in the rate of chronic bronchitis, lack of teeth, obesity, back pain and refractive anomaly of the eyes.
