مستخلص:	During the second half of the 20th century,millions of people in developing countries ceased to be farmers and sought other occupations .Little has been reported of the impact of this transition on risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and other chronic diseases. Ecological and prospective studies indicate that elevated blood pressure, elevated total cholesterol (TC), obesity, and smoking are major risk factors for stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chinese populations. Concurrent with economic development in China, levels of risk factor shave tended to rise. This study examined men residing in rural areas near big dries who worked as farmers in 1983-1984 and the relation of occupational change from 1983-1984 to 1993-1994 and their CVD risk factor changes.
