Stroke is the leading cause of death and disability in the world.Statistics from Uzbekistan show that over 60,000 new strokes occur each year. At the same time, more than 160 new cases occur daily in the country. In Tashkent alone, 25-30 cases of stroke occur every day. In Tashkent alone, 25-30 strokes are observed daily [1].The main risk factors for atherothromboembolic ischemic stroke are, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, smoking and diabetes; and the main risk factors for cardiogenic ischemic stroke are atrial fibrillation and coronary heart disease.

Purpose: Low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) is an important therapy for decreasing cardiac events in patients at risk. The initiation of ASA therapy should involve physician assessment, but some people may choose to self-medicate. The purpose of this project was to determine the percentage of people taking ASA 81 mg without the recommendation of their doctor, as well as to estimate the proportion of users exhibiting an objective indication for daily use of ASA 81 mg, based on survey responses indicating the presence of established cerebrovascular disease (stroke or mini-stroke), coronary heart disease (CHD) (heart attack or prevention surgery), a CHD risk equivalent (diabetes) or at least 2 risk factors for CHD (age, smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or positive family history). Methods: A 1-page survey was distributed to purchasers of ASA 81 mg at 52 community pharmacies in Saskatchewan. Respondents were asked who led them to start taking ASA for heart health and were asked for information on their age and health history. Estimates were made of the proportion of users exhibiting an objective indication for daily use of ASA 81 mg, defined as the presence of either established cerebrovascular disease (stroke or mini-stroke), coronary heart disease (CHD) (heart attack or prevention surgery), a CHD risk equivalent (diabetes) or at least 2 risk factors for CHD (age, smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or positive family history). Results: Of the 481 respondents whose surveys were suitable for analysis, 417 (86.7%) were engaged in doctor-supervised care. Conversely, 13.1% did not seek a physician's advice prior to the initiation of therapy. Of the 69 respondents who were taking ASA but did not meet the indications for its use, the majority claimed to have started therapy based on the recommendation of a health care professional. Conclusion The use of ASA without physician intervention is of serious concern. In this study of Saskatchewan citizens, up to 13.1% did not involve their doctor for initiation of therapy, potentially exposing them to unnecessary risk.

This new book, written for people who wish to take an active interest in their health, explains how the heart works and what can go wrong with it and with the circulation. It emphasises that there is no single cause of coronary heart disease but rather a number of risk factors which can lead to trouble, particularly if several of them are present in one person. Smoking is high on the list and is the factor most directly within a person’s control. Other factors such as raised blood pressure, obesity, physical inactivity, and especially the possible effect of stress are examined in turn. Sensible recommendations which do not impose undue limitations on life-style are made in the hope of reducing the toll of heart disease. A final section describes first aid, treatment and rehabilitation following a heart attack.

Abstract. Vitamin B12 deficiency may have indirect cardiovascular effects in addition to hematological and neuropsychiatric symptoms. It was shown that the monocyte count-to-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio (MHR) is a novel cardiovascular marker. In this study, the aim was to evaluate whether MHR was high in patients with vitamin B12 deficiency and its relationship with cardiometabolic risk factors. The study included 128 patients diagnosed with vitamin B12 deficiency and 93 healthy controls. Patients with vitamin B12 deficiency had significantly higher systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), MHR, C-reactive protein (CRP) and uric acid levels compared with the controls (median 139 vs 115 mmHg, p < 0.001; 80 vs 70 mmHg, p < 0.001; 14.2 vs 9.5, p < 0.001; 10.2 vs 4 mg/dl p < 0.001; 6.68 vs 4.8 mg/dl, p < 0.001 respectively). The prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy was higher in vitamin B12 deficiency group (43.8%) than the control group (8.6%) (p < 0.001). In vitamin B12 deficiency group, a positive correlation was detected between MHR and SBP, CRP and uric acid (p < 0.001 r:0.34, p < 0.001 r:0.30, p < 0.001 r:0.5, respectively) and a significant negative correlation was detected between MHR and T-CHOL, LDL, HDL and B12 (p < 0.001 r: −0.39, p < 0.001 r: −0.34, p < 0.001 r: −0.57, p < 0.04 r: −0.17, respectively). MHR was high in vitamin B12 deficiency group, and correlated with the cardiometabolic risk factors in this group, which were SBP, CRP, uric acid and HDL. In conclusion, MRH, which can be easily calculated in clinical practice, can be a useful marker to assess cardiovascular risk in patients with vitamin B12 deficiency.

Background: Research shows that there is a high prevalence of suicide among nurses. Despite this, it has been 15 years since the last literature review on the subject was published. Aim: The aim of this article is to review the knowledge currently available on the risk of suicide among nurses and on contributory risk factors. Method: A search was conducted in electronic databases using keywords related to prevalence and risk factors of suicide among nurses. The abstracts were analyzed by reviewers according to selection criteria. Selected articles were submitted to a full-text review and their key elements were summarized. Results: Only nine articles were eligible for inclusion in this review. The results of this literature review highlight both the troubling high prevalence of suicide among nurses as well as the persistent lack of studies that examine this issue. Conclusion: Considering that the effects of several factors related to nurses' work and work settings are associated with high stress, distress, or psychiatric problems, we highlight the relevance of investigating work-related factors associated with nurses' risk of suicide. Several avenues for future studies are discussed as well as possible research methods.

SummaryAt least five studies based on more than twenty thousand healthy subjects indicated that fibrinogen is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events; less clear-cut is the relation between factor VII and risk for arterial thrombotic disorders, which was demonstrated in two of the three studies investigating this association. However, no study has investigated the behaviour of fibrinogen and factor VII in an adolescent population. In a study of Preventive Medicine and Education Program, fibrinogen (clotting method) and factor Vllag (ELISA), in addition to other metabolic parameters, life-style and familial history, were investigated in 451 students (313 females and 138 males, age 15-17 years) from two high schools of Florence. Fibrinogen levels were significantly higher in women than in men, whereas factor Vllag levels did not significantly differ. Both fibrinogen and factor Vllag significantly correlated with total cholesterol (p <0.05) while only fibrinogen correlated with body mass index (p <0.01). Factor Vllag was significantly correlated with systolic blood pressure (p <0.001). This study provides information on coagulation risk factors in a population of adolescents which may be of importance in planning coronary heart disease prevention programs.

The Relationship

SummaryThe relationship between haematocrit and cardiovascular risk factors, particularly blood pressure and blood lipids, has been examined in detail in a large prospective study of 7735 middle-aged men drawn from general practices in 24 British towns. The analyses are restricted to the 5494 men free of any evidence of ischaemic heart disease at screening.Smoking, body mass index, physical activity, alcohol intake and lung function (FEV1) were factors strongly associated with haematocrit levels independent of each other. Age showed a significant but small independent association with haematocrit. Non-manual workers had slightly higher haematocrit levels than manual workers; this difference increased considerably and became significant after adjustment for the other risk factors. Diabetics showed significantly lower levels of haematocrit than non-diabetics. In the univariate analysis, haematocrit was significantly associated with total serum protein (r = 0*18), cholesterol (r = 0.16), triglyceride (r = 0.15), diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.17) and heart rate (r = 0.14); all at p <0.0001. A weaker but significant association was seen with systolic blood pressure (r = 0.09, p <0.001). These relationships remained significant even after adjustment for age, smoking, body mass index, physical activity, alcohol intake, lung function, presence of diabetes, social class and for each of the other biological variables; the relationship with systolic blood pressure was considerably weakened. No association was seen with blood glucose and HDL-cholesterol. This study has shown significant associations between several lifestyle characteristics and the haematocrit and supports the findings of a significant relationship between the haematocrit and blood lipids and blood pressure. It emphasises the role of the haematocrit in assessing the risk of ischaemic heart disease and stroke in individuals, and the need to take haematocrit levels into account in determining the importance of other cardiovascular risk factors.
