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.

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

Abstract Background: The prevalence of coronary heart disease (CHD) is increasing worldwide. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of CHD and related risk factors in the population of Shahedieh cohort in Yazd, central Iran.Method: This cross-sectional analytical study was performed on the data of the first phase of the Yazd Shahedieh cohort study, which started in 2016 and included about 10,000 people from the urban population of 35-70 years old in Yazd Shahedieh – Yazd, Iran. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the variables and Chi-square test and multiple binary logistic regression models were used for analysis by reporting the modified odds ratio. All analyzes were performed in SPSS 19 software with a significance level of 5%. Results: The prevalence of the CHD was 8.08% (769 patients). The results of multiple binary logistic regression identified aging, low level of education, smoking, female gender, abnormal LDL, family history, diabetes and blood pressure as risk factors for CHD. The odds of getting CHD over the age of 60 was about 6 times than those aged 30-40, in the illiterate people it was about two times than the university. Smoking, family history, hypertension and diabetes increased the odds of getting CHD by 1.67, 1.59, 3.48 and 1.64. Smoking, family history, hypertension and diabetes increased the odds of getting CHD by 1.67, 1.59, 3.48 and 1.64, times than others, respectively.Conclusion: The prevalence of the disease in Iran was relatively high. According to the effect size, the most important risk factors for the disease were age over sixty years and blood pressure.
