[The Aim of the screening program was to investigate the blood pressure and the association with obesity, hypercholesterinaemia and increased body fluid in adolescents. Methods: A screening program was conducted during the period from April 2010 to May 2011.The screenings consisted of: blood pressure, heart rate, body composition determination, cholesterol, blood glucose, weight, height and BMI. Results: 2226 children fullfied all of the outlined criteria. Their range of age was between 14–18 years. The average systolic blood pressure was 126.34±12.55 Hgmm volt. At boys were higher 131.87±13.59 then at girls 117.49±5.69 Hgmm. The average diastolic blood pressure was 71.86±8.74 Hgmm. There were also higher at boys 72.61±9.17 then at girls 66.69±5.04 Hgmm. High systolic blood pressure (95%<) were 307/1326 cases at girls, and 403/876 cases at boys. High diastolic blood pressure were together with high systolic blood pressure, but less frequency. High diastolic blood pressure occurred at 85 girls and at 90 boys. Overweight and obes were 18.994% of girls and 15.26% of boys. The percentage of pathological high blood pressure was most frequent among boys and girls who are in the overweight group. The pathologically high level of body fat percentage appeared to be 12.98% among girls and 5.9% among boys. In elevated BMI groups the frequency of high body fat was 66% among girls and 81% among boys. The mean cholesterol was significantly higher in the overweight and obese group. Conclusions: Rates of hypertension and overweight and obesity are high in school children in Budapest, and increased bodyweight is a significant risk factor for hypertension. The results of the study will help to design preventive programmers.]

[1 597 163 health assessments were performed on 65267 persons as a part of screening program. 132 964 participants were participated in our lifestyle advice program. The number of questionnaire responses for health statue were 3 717 480 during three years. This publication presents the results of metabolic disorders explored by screening. The metabolic syndrome was characterized by visceral obesity, abnormal glucose level and elevated blood pressure. Reasonable suspicion of metabolic syndrome was occured in 33-38% of subjects. Where the positive criteria was present, there were higher values of investigated parameters (waist, glucose, cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, uric acide level) compared with those of negative criteria.]

[Hypertension is the leading cause of death and disability-adjusted life years. In the United States hypertension accounts for more cardiovascular (CV) deaths than any other modifiable CV disease risk factor and was second only to cigarette smoking as a preventable cause of death for any reason. In our country the situation is similar. In Hungary the number of subjects with hypertension is approximately 3.5 million and this high prevalence contributes markedly to the poor Hungarian CV morbidity and mortality figures. The recognition of hypertension, the initiation of drug therapy and the long-term follow- up of the patients is mainly the task of primary care. Besides that it inheres high responsibility, this is also a grateful commitment, as hypertension in most of the cases can be treated properly with lifestyle-changes and medications leading to a marked decrease of CV complications, especially stroke. In our review article we would like to focus on the high prevalence of hypertension worldwide as well as in our country, the exact implementation of screening, the risk reduction potential of the proper treatment and the importance of the long-term maintenance of treatment adherence.]

[Lung cancer still represents one of the greatest and unsolved health problem of the world. The lung cancer mortality rate is the highest among all cancer cases in both genders. While the world is focusing on both primary and secondary prevention, the position of mass screening for lung cancer is complex and controversial, yet. This raises many issues that can only solved by a multidisciplinary approach. This summary is intending to help the radiologists to make the right decision in our modern computerised world. Nowadays one of the most important question is if screening of the high-risk group with low-dose spiral CT is efficient and cost-effective.]

[INTRODUCTION - The campomelic dysplasia is a disorder characterized by short and bowed lower limbs resulting in dwarfism. CASE REPORT - In the case of a 21-year-old primipara woman the second screening ultrasonography raised the suspicion of short and bowed lower limbs of the fetus, at the 19th week of the pregnancy. Repeated examinations proved the presence of short and bowed femurs and tibias and abnormal echogenecity of the bones. The upper limbs were almost normal in length. During the 19th week of pregnancy, after a genetic analysis in agreement of the parents the pregnancy was interrupted without any complication. Photography and Xray of the fetus confirmed the diagnosis. CONCLUSION - Fetal ultrasonography should include exact size measurement and observation of the shape of the long bones, making possible the early detection of limb anomalies. The anomaly being proven by positive genetic analysis the pregnancy can be interrupted at the parents' request.]
