Abstract:

Background: Development of heart failure is always secondary to presenceof risk factors like diabetes mellitus, hypertension, age, smoking and underlying coronaryartery disease. Objective: The objective of this study was to find the frequency of risk factorsand coronary artery involvement in patients of heart failure after myocardial infarction. StudyDesign: A non-randomized cross sectional study. Setting: Gulab Devi Chest Hospital. Period:Six months. Methods: 100 patients was done. Using non probability (purposive) samplingtechnique; all patients with ages between 20 to 80 years, irrespective of gender, diagnosedwith heart failure (with ejection fraction ≤ 40%) secondary to STEMI were included in thestudy. Patients that were not having heart failure secondary to STEMI and those that hadn’ttheir coronary angiography done were excluded from the study. The data were analyzed usingSPSS Version 20. Descriptive statistics was used to see analyze the data. Results: Mean ageof patients was 52.61±10.2years. There was an overall male predominance (81%). Commonrisk factors that we observed were smoking (65%), hypertension (62%), diabetes (58%) andpositive family history (38%). In this study 51% patients had triple vessels disease, 15% patientshad double vessels disease and 34% patients had single vessel disease. Most common lesionwas of LAD following LCX, RCA and LMS. Conclusion: Our study conclude that coronaryartery disease is the main causative factor for the development of heart failure in patients ofmyocardial infarction and even a single vessel disease can lead to heart failure with severesystolic dysfunction. Most common associated risk factor was smoking, hypertension being thesecond most common following diabetes and positive family history.

Abstract:

P94 Background: Selective blood cholesterol screening of children based upon National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) guidelines of family history of premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) or parental hypercholesterolemia is inadequate in a population with high prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD), low levels of cholesterol screening, low socio-economic status (SES) and diminished access to preventive health care. We hypothesize that universal cholesterol screening of pre-pubertal school children may be effective in identifying children and their parents with abnormal lipid levels in this high risk rural population. Fifth grade school children from seven rural Appalachian counties participated in a school based cholesterol screening program. Data on family history of premature CHD, anthropometric and blood pressure measurements, tobacco smoke exposure, dietary history and physical activity levels were collected at the time of screening. Seven hundred and nine 5 th grade students ( mean age 10.8 years) participated in the program. One hundred seventy four (24.5%) were considered presumptively dyslipidemic after non-fasting finger- stick (FS) cholesterol screening. Thirty six percent of these dyslipidemic children had a fasting lipid profile done. Dyslipidemia was confirmed in 37(59%) of these children. FS cholesterol levels were significantly correlated with fasting TC (r=0.80 p < 0.0001). Among confirmed dyslipidemic children, family history was not a good predictor of dyslipidemia (sensitivity 21.6%). Seventy nine parents of dyslipidemic children participated in fasting lipid profile assessment. Fifty two parents (67%) were dyslipidemic, most of them (79%) did not have a family history of premature CHD or hypercholesterolemia. FS cholesterol levels were also correlated with fasting TC of fathers (r=0.46 p=0.01), and mothers (r=0.32 p=0.02). Conclusion: Significant correlation exists between non-fasting FS cholesterol levels of children and subsequent fasting lipid profile of children and their parents. Family history has low sensitivity in predicting children with elevated serum cholesterol concentrations.

Abstract:

Objective. We attempt to discuss the relationship between family support and willingness to participate in exercise rehabilitation in coronary heart disease patients after PCI to provide effective guidance for improving the quality of life of coronary heart disease patients after PCI. Methods. By convenient sampling, we selected 90 coronary heart disease patients in cardiology department from September 2021 to January 2022, using general information questionnaire, rehabilitation exercise knowledge, attitude, and behavior questionnaire of patients with coronary heart disease, and the social support scale to investigate the subjects. Results. The total score of knowledge, belief, and behavior in patients with coronary heart disease was 33.02 ± 6.28 points, the social support scale score was 39.63 ± 6.07 points, the multiple linear regression revealed that the educational level, history of cardiovascular disease, and the number of coronary stents of coronary heart disease patients after PCI are the main influencing factors that affect the willingness of coronary heart disease patients to participate in exercise rehabilitation. Conclusion. Rehabilitation exercise knowledge, belief, and behavior scores in coronary heart disease patients are low, and social support is negatively correlated with rehabilitation exercise in coronary heart disease patients.

Abstract:

Background: Self-reported family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an independent risk factor for future coronary heart disease (CHD) events. However, inclusion of family history of CVD in the traditional risk scores failed to improve risk prediction of CHD. It is proposed that family history of CVD may substantially increase the risk of CHD among younger individuals. Methods: We conducted a matched case-control study with 170 hospital-based premature CHD patients (<55 years in men and <65 years in women) from a tertiary care centre in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala and age and sex matched community-based controls in 1:1 ratio. Conditional logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the independent association of family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature CHD. We estimated McNemar's odds ratios and their 95 percent confidence intervals. Results: The prevalence of any family history of CVD and CHD in the control population was 24% and 21%, respectively. The family history of CVD was independently associated with premature CHD (odds ratio (OR) = 9.0; 95% confidence interval (CI) 4.7–17.3). There was a dose-response relationship between family history and premature CHD as the risk increased linearly with increase in number of affected family members. Conclusions: Family history of CVD is an independent risk factor for premature CHD. The risk of premature CHD increases linearly with increase in number of affected family members. Collecting family history beyond parental history of CVD is important for risk stratification. Targeting young individuals with family history of CVD for intensive risk reduction interventions may help to prevent future events.

Abstract:

Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) has become the main cause of death in the world and in Indonesia. Many people have heart attacks without any symptoms. Men have a higher risk of developing coronary heart disease sooner than women. Women have a risk of coronary heart disease during menopause. Typical symptoms felt by patients with coronary heart disease are chest pain that radiates to the back, arms, neck. This study aims to identify the risk factors for coronary heart disease in women aged 50 years at RSU Haji Surabaya. The design of descriptive analysis was carried out on all patients with CHD as many as 30 patients with Consecutive Sampling with medical record data instruments (history of hypertension, obesity, cholesterol, smoking and diabetes mellitus). The results showed that CHD in women 50 years was dominantly caused by a history of hypertension 63%, history of high cholesterol and obesity 56.7%, history of DM 43.3%, family history 10%, history of smoking 6.7%. One of the main factors causing CHD is hypertension. Increased pressure of blood vessels against arterial walls can result in endothelial damage that triggers atherosclerosis.

Abstract: As a cardiovascular disease, heart failure is one of prime mortality cause in the world. Coronary heart disease has a role in development of heart failure so that it becomes one of heart failure’s major clinical risk factor. This study aimed to calculate the prevalence of and identify the factors that influence coronary heart disease status of heart failure patients at Alamanda ward of RSUD Ulin Banjarmasin in 2016. Factors that were studied consisted of age, sex, family history of heart disease, smoking, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. This study used analytical observation with cross-sectional approach on medical records that were obtained by purposive sampling method. The result showed 46.4% of 263 heart failure patients had coronary heart disease status. Multivariate analysis inferred hypertension as the factor that influences the coronary heart disease status of heart failure patients (OR = 1.98, 95% CI = 1.06 – 3.71, P = 0.033).

The relationship between coronary heart-disease endpoints and attributional style in women has been previously unexamined. This study examined the attributions of 73 postmyocardial infarction (MI) women about their heart disease and explored the relationship between attributions and nonfatal coronary recurrence Women's primary causal attributions included personal behavior (9.6%), blaming others (19.3%), stress (28.8%), luck (12.3%), and family history (13.7%). The largest proportion of recurrences occurred in women attributing their infarcts to marital problems. Of the attributional ratings, ascriptions involving spouses were the only attributions that met entry criteria for logistic regression ( p = .019) after controlling for severity of first infarction.

Abstract:

Background: According to Framingham Study, independent risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) are diabetes, hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia, family history of CHD and obesity. Previous study reported cut-off value of Duke Treadmill Score (DTS) < -0.5 represents a significant coronary lesion with positive predictive value 88.4%. Objective: To compare the incidence of predicted significant coronary lesions by DTS among various risk factors for coronary heart disease. Methods: A cross sectional study was done on 292 patients age 18 to 74 years old who had positive exercise testing for CAD screening during period of June 1st 2016 until May 30th 2017. DTS was calculated from treadmill test as: exercise time - (5 x ST deviation in mm) - (4 x exercise angina). A coronary lesion was predicted significant with DTS cut off value < -0.5. Results: Subjects mean age was 57 years old, male were 60.4%. The risk factors for CHD were found sequentially from the most frequent were hypertension 51.9%, smoking 35.3%, diabetes mellitus 23.1%, dyslipidemia 11.9%, obesity 4.2% and family history of CHD 6.3%. It was found that diabetes was significantly different from its effect on DTS value with p value = 0.021, while hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and family history CHD had no significant effect. Logistic regression found consistently that diabetes was significant (p=0.019). Conclusion: Predicted significant coronary lesions by DTS developed more frequent in diabetes compared to, hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia, obesity and family history of coronary heart disease.

Abstract:

IntroductionIschemic heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. In this study, we evaluated the risk factors for Turkish Cypriot ischemic heart disease patients.Material and methodsIn this study we examined 7017 patients, retrospectively. 5.9% of the patients had myocardial infarction coronary artery disease (MICAD) and 94.1% of the patients were control patients. The mean age of the study population was 52, and 39.2% were female. The risk factors considered were: age, sex, hypertension (HT), diabetes mellitus (DM), family history of coronary artery disease, smoking, high total cholesterol levels and obesity.ResultsConsistently with the presumed risk factors, there was a significant difference between MICAD and control groups in our study for smoking, HT, DM and obesity. However, our study revealed no significant difference for high total cholesterol levels in contrast to the current literature. Assessing the risk factors among male and female patient groups separately, both men and women have the highest risk prevalence for hypertension. Smoking is the second most common risk factor among males, whereas it is the family history of coronary heart disease in the female group. HT, DM and obesity were found to be significant risk factors for both males and females in our study group, while family history was revealed to be significant only in women.ConclusionsModifiable risk factors such as smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and obesity may be controlled by lifestyle changes and medical therapies, and should be approached with caution for preventing cardiac events. Non-modifiable risk factors such as age, gender, family history and ethnicity should be taken into account for disease prediction.

The aim of this study was to asses the relationship between the intensity of depressed symptoms and the course of the illness and also demographic factors.Methods:The group of 111 CHD patients (89 male, 22 female) aged 41-65 years (mean 55±5,6). The individuals were assessed according to the following criteria: sex, job status (working, unemployed, retired), vascular diseases in family, myocardial infarction (MI) in history, number of MI, patients with acute MI were divided according to the duration of time from the onset of MI pain (patients who passed MI within a week and above a week from the onset of MI). The intensity of depressive symptoms were assessed by subjective Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and objective Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS).Results:The intensity of depressed symptoms in BDI was 9,9±7,5 and in HDRS 6,6±4,5. Females showed significant higher level of depression compared with males.In patients who passed MI within a week before the evaluation as compared with those whose term after MI was longer than a week the less level of depression was observed. Also active workers presented significantly less degree of depressive symptoms than pensioners.Conclusion:The results obtained showed the association between the intensity of depression and the more severe course of the CHD, especially in female and pension patients.Acknowledgements:This research was supported by grant 502-16-653 Medical University of Lodz

Abstract:

Background: Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Is a condition when the arteries that supply blood to the heart wall experience hardening and narrowing. It is estimated that 30% of coronary heart disease causes death worldwide. Objective: This study aims to determine the risk factors for CHD in Panti Rapih Hospital. Methods: This descriptive study aims to determine the risk factors for CHD in outpatients at Panti Rapih Hospital. The population is patients who have been diagnosed with coronary heart disease and the sample was taken by 50 respondents with non-random accidental sampling technique. This research take the data use questionnaire and make univariat analysis. Results: Risk factors for CHD are a number of factors that cannot be changed: family history of 42%, age = 40 years 95% in men and 95% age = 65 years in women. Factors that can be changed are: Smoking 78%, history of hypertension 68%, history of diabetes mellitus 28%, dyslipidemic 90%, excess body weight42% and lack of exercise 38%. Conclusion: Risk factors for CHD that cannot be changed: family history of 42%, age = 40 years 95% in men and 95% age = 65 years in women. Factors that can be changed are: Smoking 78%, history of hypertension 68%, history of diabetes mellitus 28%, dyslipidemic 90%, excess body weight 42% and lack of exercise 38%.

Abstract:

Background and purpose. Little information relating to cholesterol levels and screening for hypercholesterolemia in inner-city children exists. For this study, given the disrupted family backgrounds of many of our patients and the unreliability of family histories, our hypothesis was that in comparison with other samples, family history of coronary heart disease would be a poor screening tool for the identification of children with elevations in total serum cholesterol (TSC). Subjects and methods. During 15 months, more than 400 pediatric outpatients, 2 through 14 years old, were screened for a family history of atherosclerotic disease. These children were attending a clinic serving a disadvantaged black and Hispanic population at Kings County Hospital Center. Nonfasting TSC levels were measured in 300 children. Positive risk for coronary heart disease was determined by the presence of a family history of coronary heart disease (defined as angina, stroke, or myocardial infarction in any parent or grandparent) at less than 55 years age. Results. The mean TSC level was 4.27 mmol/L (SD ± 0.85) (165.0 mg/dL [SD ± 32.81]). The 29.4% of this population with a history suggestive of high risk for hypercholesterolemia had a mean TSC of 4.48 mmol/L (SD ± 0.971) (173.2 mg/dL [SD ± 37.5]), and those with no risk history had a mean TSC of 4.18 mmol/L (SD ± 0.750) (161.4 mg/dL [SD ± 29.91) (P < .005). Use of family history of coronary artery disease as a screening tool had a sensitivity of 39.3%, a specificity of 74.5%, and a positive predictive value of 39.8% for detection of moderate hypercholesterolemia (TSC ≥ 4.66 mmollL [180 mg/dL]). Conclusions. This population's mean TSC level did not differ (P > .10) from those obtained in multiple large studies of average North American populations, and the predictive value and sensitivity of family history as a screening tool was comparable, although the prevalence of a positive family history was greater. The findings may be due to a greater prevalence of coronary artery disease at a young age in these families. In this population, a positive risk history is an important indicator for further evaluation of these children.

Abstract:

SummaryIndividuals with a family history of coronary heart disease (CHD) may be predisposed to atherothrombosis. To investigate this hypothesis, a family CHD risk score was computed for approximately 13,000 men and women aged 45 to 64; hemostatic variables (fibrinogen, factor VIIc, factor VIIIc, von Willebrand factor, antithrombin III, protein C) were also measured in plasma. After adjustment for age and ethnicity, there was a statistically significant, positive association between the family risk score and four of the six hemostatic variables (fibrinogen, factor VIIc, factor VIIIc, von Willebrand factor) in women and all six hemostatic variables in men. In general, these associations were weak and substantially attenuated after adjustment for constitutional, lifestyle, and biochemical covariates. These results indicate that mean levels of selected hemostatic variables, like traditional CHD risk factors, are higher in individuals with a family history of heart disease.

Abstract:

Background: Men and women are known to delay in seeking medical attention when experiencing acute cardiac symptoms. However, women are more likely to have had chronic undifferentiated symptoms prior to an acute episode and then when experiencing an acute episode delay longer than do men. Studies have shown once women do present they tend to be further along the disease trajectory than men. Aims: The aim of this study was to explore women's own interpretation of the presenting symptoms they experienced. Methods: Twenty-nine women consented to take part in semi-structured interviews that focussed on their experience of coronary heart disease (CHD). The women's narrative around the initial disruption of their illness was analysed focusing on routine and reconstructed forms of narration. Results: The results showed that many failed to recognise and act on their symptoms. Most only sought medical attention after family or friends intervened. None of the women had seen themselves at risk of developing coronary heart disease despite many have a strong family history. Conclusion: The women's early symptoms of coronary heart disease were often undifferentiated and difficult to interpret by the women themselves. There is a need for further research to understand and recognise early symptoms of coronary heart disease in women. This will allow women and health professionals to assess risk and identify women with coronary heart disease early on in their disease trajectory so therapy to prevent the morbidity associated with coronary heart disease and acute life threatening episodes will be reduced.

Abstract:

This study investigated the relationship between coronary heart disease and a number of established coronary risk factors among Indian males. Included were factors such as Type A behaviour pattern (sometimes referred to as the coronary-prone behaviour pattern). The study investigated whether the following coronary risk factors were able to distinguish those with myocardial infarction from controls: Type A behaviour pattern, stress levels, anger levels, diabetes, previous coronary heart disease, hypertension, obesity, family history of coronary heart disease, physical exercise, cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption. Statistical analysis indicated that none of the risk factors, except Type A behaviour pattern, were able to significantly distinguish the myocardial infarction group from controls.

Abstract:

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is a dangerous condition caused by the formation of plaque in the blood vessels, which leads to a decrease in blood flow to the heart and causes chest pain. High blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, lack of exercise, alcoholism, high cholesterol, and poor diet are major causes. CAD is more common in older adults, and men are more likely to develop it than women. Heart attack, shortness of breath, and chest pain are all symptoms of CAD. Conclusion: CAD is a very serious and rapidly growing disease in India. It is most common in the elderly, men, smokers, and people with a family history. To prevent this condition, a healthy diet and regular exercise are recommended.

Abstract:

P66 Epidemiologic studies have been inconsistent on the association between low birth weight and increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Little is known about potential mechanisms by which determinants of low birth weight affect CVD. We used data collected on 2,540 participants of the NHLBI Family Heart Study to assess the relation of birth weight to CVD, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. Birth weight was obtained by self report. CVD was defined as positive history of myocardial infarction, coronary angioplasty, coronary bypass surgery, congestive heart failure, or stroke. Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure of at least 140 mm Hg, or diastolic pressure of at least 90 mm Hg, or use of antihypertensive medication. Diabetes mellitus was ascertained by medical history and pathologic blood sugar levels. We used generalized estimating equations to assess the prevalence odds ratios, adjusting for age, risk group, anthropometric, metabolic, and lifestyle factors. Prevalence odds ratios (95% CI) are presented below. Low birth weight was associated with increased prevalence odds of CVD compared with normal and large babies (p=0.0012). The trend was suggestive of increased prevalence odds of hypertension (p=0.05) and diabetes mellitus (p=0.0012) from the highest to the lowest category of birth weight. In conclusion, low birth weight was associated with increased prevalence odds ratio of CVD, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension. Low birth weight may add to other traditional risk factors in identifying subjects at low and high risk of CVD. Table 1.

Abstract:

A coronary heart disease is a disease which occurs because of the damage of blood vessel walls due to several factors of risk, such as free radical substances contained in cigarettes and pollution, cholesterol, hypertension, and smoking habits. The purpose of this study is to determine the correlation of smoking with coronary heart diseases. The research is an analytic survey with case control design. The population of this study were people who smoke that suffer from coronary heart diseases and those who do not suffer from the diseases. The sampling technique used in this study was simple random sampling, which consisted of 86 respondents. The respondents were divided into case and control sample respondents with similar number of people (43) respectively. The statistical test used was contingency coefficient test (c). The research shows that there was no correlation between jobs and family members health history towards the coronary heart diseases(p>0.05), whereas a correlation was found between the type of cigarettes, smoking intensity, sexes, duration of smoking, and the early age when smoking began with coronary heart diseases (p˂0.05).

Abstract:

Background Morbidity and mortality of coronary heart disease(CHD) are recently increasing. This is related to changes in lifestyle,such as lack of activity and high consumption of fatty diet. Themain cause of CHD is atherosclerosis. The development of ath-erosclerosis takes a long time, is asymptomatic, and might beginin childhood. The important risk factors that have roles in increas-ing the likelihood of atherosclerosis are family history of prematureCHD, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, obesity, smoking and irregu-lar activity.Objective The aim of this study was to find out the prevalence ofCHD risk factors in children and young adults who had parentalhistory of premature CHD.Methods This was a descriptive cross sectional study conductedon offspring of premature CHD patients who were admitted in theintensive cardiology care unit (ICCU) of Cipto MangunkusumoHospital between January 1999 to December 2001 and of prema-ture CHD patients who visited the Cardiology Clinic of the Depart-ment of Internal Medicine, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital duringMarch and April 2002. Subjects were aged 12 to 25 year-old.Results Among the subjects, 40% had hyperlipidemia, 8% hadhypertension, 11% were obese, 21% were active smokers, 41%were passive smokers, and 73% had irregular activity. Ninety-sevenpercents subjects had more than 1 risk factors.Conclusions The prevalence of hyperlipidemia, hypertension,obesity, passive smoker, active smoker and irregular activity inchildren and young adults with parental history of premature CHDin this study were higher than those in the normal population.Most had more than 1 risk factor, increasing the likelihood of CHD.A screening test should be performed on children with parentalhistory of premature CHD so that early preventive measures mightbe done to minimize the risk factors

Abstract:

For the purpose of investigating the correlation between incidence of myocardial infarction (MI) and family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD), the study of prevalence of CVD among the first-degree relatives of patients with a known MI episode has been conducted. Medico-genetic files of two groups of patients with evidence of MI on ECG at rest have been analyzed: first group comprising patients who had an episode of MI before 55 years of age and second group comprising patients who had an episode after 55 years of age. A fairly high percentage of CVD in families of majority of patients with a known episode of MI has been noticed. However, this study has demonstrated a relatively low prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and MI, including MI episodes before the age of 55, among fathers of patients from both groups. Moreover, occurrence of CAD and MI in fathers of the subgroup of patients who suffered from MI before 50 years of age of these patients practically showed no difference from that of subgroups of patients with episodes of MI at an older age. A fairly large amount of patients in both groups had no history of CAD in their families (41,5% and 41,2%, respectively). Considering the results mentioned above, there is no evidence to suggest that a predisposition of patients to MI episode at a younger age increases with existence of this disease in fathers of such patients. Results of our study suggest that increased presence of CVD and risk factors in first-degree relatives increases the probability of MI CAD in most patients of both groups regardless of the age of development of an MI episode.

Abstract:

AbstractIn a prospective cohort of 181 individuals followed up since childhood – when aged 9, 12 and 15 years – patients with a family history of premature coronary heart disease (n=18) had higher left ventricular mass index in adulthood – at mean age of 31 years – compared with those without (mean±standard error 39.1±1.9 versus 34.6±0.7 g/m2.7, p=0.04). The correlation between adult left ventricular mass index and child triglycerides (r=0.66, p=0.04 versus r=−0.03, p=0.75; pdiff=0.02) and diastolic blood pressure (r=0.65, p=0.02 versus r=0.16, p=0.07; pdiff=0.05) was stronger among those with a family history of coronary heart disease than in those without. Although preliminary, these data suggest that the higher left ventricular mass index among adults with a family history might be explained by their increased susceptibility to child cardio-metabolic risk factors.

Abstract:

There is increasing evidence that in some diseases such as coronary heart disease, risk factors may interact synergistically, resulting in greater likelihood of disease than would be produced by the sum of the risk factors. These two studies aimed to examine the extent to which 210 undergraduate students and 28 heart attack patients perceive risk factors to combine synergistically. Respondents read one of four vignettes, describing information about risk factors (with high and low smoking and family history), and estimated a man's likelihood of a heart attack in a hypothetical case. In both studies an interaction was found with either a family history or smoking eliciting ratings of high likelihood of heart attack, providing no evidence of synergistic models. This finding may reflect respondents' beliefs or the insensitivity of this paper-and-pencil method in detecting synergistic effects.
