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%.     Keywords: coronary heart disease, risk factors

Background: It is established that a family history of coronary heart disease (FHCHD) is associated with coronary atherosclerosis in healthy first-degree relatives, but the extent to which FHCHD is associated with silent cerebrovascular disease (cSVD) is unknown. We hypothesized a higher prevalence of cSVD in healthy persons with FHCHD, independent of traditional risk factors, compared to those without FHCHD. Methods: ARIC is a community-based cohort study with self-reported family history data and brain magnetic resonance imaging (visit 5; 2011-13). The association between binary markers of cSVD (lacunar infarcts and/or cerebral microbleeds), or log-transformed white matter hyperintensity volume (WMH), and FHCHD (parent and/or sibling), or number of relatives was examined using separate adjusted multivariable logistic or linear regression models respectively. Sensitivity analysis (N=183) excluded prevalent CHD. Race interaction terms were included. Results: Of 1828 participants (76±5yo, 60% female, 28% black), 787 had FHCHD (699 parental, 209 sibling FHCHD). There were increased adjusted odds of lacunar infarct among those with parental FHCHD (Table). An increased odds of cerebral microbleeds were seen among those with sibling history but not parental. Effect estimates were similar when excluding those with prevalent CHD (Table). Greater number of siblings affected was associated with higher odds of lacunar infarct (OR 1.35, CI 1.04-1.74), lobar (OR 1.53, CI 1.12-2.09) and subcortical microbleeds (OR 1.30, CI 1.01-1.66). Odds of a lacunar infarct being present were higher among blacks (p-interaction 0.04) with paternal FHCHD (OR 2.20, CI 1.35-3.58) compared to whites (OR 1.17, CI 0.87-1.56). Neither FHCHD nor number of affected relatives was associated with WMH. Conclusions: Our results suggest that some cSVD manifestations are associated with FHCHD, potentially representing shared mechanisms in different vascular beds, and perhaps a genetic propensity for vascular disease.
