The paper focuses on examining peculiarities of risk factors causing cardiac infarction at a young age. Although car- diac infarction primarily occurs among patients older than 45, its frequency at a young age has been growing recently. Risk factors that cause cardiac infarction at a young and old age are quite different. Examining risk factors profiles in different age groups provides wider opportunities for implementing primary and secondary prevention strategies aimed at reducing frequency and negative outcomes of ischemic heart disease.108 patients aged from 18 to 45 and 35 patients aged from 60 to 75 took part in the research; they all had confirmed cardiac infarction with or without rise in ST segment and were treated in a regional center for cardiovascular pathology treatment in a period from January 01, 2017 to January 01, 2019. Basic risk factors of cardiac infarction were assessed when a patient was admitted to a clinic for treatment. The research results indicate high prevalence of risk factors that could cause ischemic heart disease among young pa- tients. 92.2 % young patients have dyslipidemia, 70.2 % smoke, 68.5 have low physical activity, 68.2 % suffer from over- weight and obesity, 58.8 % have arterial hypertension, 7.4 % suffer from type II pancreatic diabetes, and disorders in toler- ance to carbohydrates was reveled in 15.7 % cases. Such factors as male sex (85.2 vs. 37.1 %, р=0,000), smoking (70.2 vs. 20.6 %, р=0.000) and burdened heredity as per early ischemic heart disease occurrence (54.6 vs. 16.0 %, р=0.001) were significantly more frequent among young patients than among older ones. Data obtained via the present research allowed creating risk factors profile for cardiac infarction associated with car- diac infarction occurrence at a young age; this profile included such factors as male sex, early ischemic heart disease occur- rence in family history, and smoking

Background: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is one of the leading causes of mortality in Pakistan. With advancement in research, multiple causes have contributed in development of web of causation of this public health issue. The objective of this study was to assess gender differences in risk factors associated with ischemic heart disease in patients presenting at the biggest cardiology hospital of Lahore. Patients and methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was carried out in Punjab Institute of Cardiology, Lahore from January to August, 2018 on a sample of 296 diagnosed patients of IHD, through non-probability consecutive sampling technique. Data was collected on pretested questionnaire. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 22. Chi-Square test of significance was applied and a p-value ≤0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The mean age of participants was 45±12 years with predominance of male patients (71.3%). Frequency of risk factors for IHD included increase body mass index (83.8%), hypertension (61%), insufficient physical activity (43%), diabetes (38.5%) and smoking (23%). Increase serum cholesterol was reported in 95% and triglycerides in 99% of the participants. Gender difference was significant with females residing in urban population (p=0.054) and exercise routine (p=0.034). Males showed high tendency of IHD with smoking pattern (p<0.001) contrary to presence of diabetes in females (p=0.05), hypertension (p=0.054), BMI (p=0.0379) and stressful event in life (p=0.002). Males showed regular intake of medicines (p =0.045) after diagnosis as compared to female population. Conclusion: There is more frequency of ischemic heart disease in males as compared to females. Significant association was observed with residence in urban area, presence of diabetes, hypertension, high BMI and stressful event in life in occurrence of ischemic heart disease in female population.

Left bundle branch block is not a benign pathology, and its presence requires the identification of a pathological substrate, such as ischemic heart disease. Left bundle branch block appears to be more commonly associated with normal coronary arteries, especially in women. The objectives of our study were to describe the particularities of left bundle branch block in women compared to men with ischemic heart disease. Result: We included seventy patients with left bundle branch block and ischemic heart disease, with a mean age of 67.01 ± 8.89 years. There were no differences in the profile of risk factors, except for smoking and uric acid. The ventricular depolarization (QRS) duration was longer in men than women (136.86 ± 8.32 vs. 132.57 ± 9.19 msec; p = 0.018) and also men were observed to have larger left ventricular diameters. Left bundle branch block duration was directly associated with ventricular diameters and indirectly associated with left ventricular ejection fraction value, especially in women (R = −0.52, p = 0.0012 vs. R = −0.50, p = 0.002). In angiography, 80% of women had normal epicardial arteries compared with 65.7% of men; all these patients presented with microvascular dysfunction. Conclusion: The differences between the sexes were not so obvious in terms of the presence of risk factors; instead, there were differences in electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, and angiographic aspects. Left bundle branch block appears to be a marker of microvascular angina and systolic dysfunction, especially in women.

Abstract Background In clinical setting, ischemic heart disease is a challenging problem in hemodialysis (HD) population. Coronary flow reserve (CFR) measured by 13 ammonia positron emitting tomography (13NH3PET) is an established and reliable modality for detecting coronary artery disease. Furthermore, some prior studies show CFR is an important and independent predictor for cardiovascular event and mortality. On the other hand, HD patients with malnutrition status have poor prognosis. We have reported about the relationship between cardiovascular events and geriatric nutrition risk index (GNRI). Now, we wonder the predictability of combination of CFR and GNRI. Methods and result We collected 438 consecutive HD patients who received 13NH3PET in our hospital suspected for ischemic heart disease. 29 patients were excluded due to undergoing coronary revascularization within 60 days, 103 patients were excluded due to incomplete database. In total, 306 HD patients were classified into 4 group according the median value of CFR (1.99) and GNRI (97.73); Low CFR Low GNRI group (n=77), High CFR and Low GNRI group (n=76), Low CFR High GNRI group (n=78) and High CFR High GNRI group (n=75). We collected their follow up data up to 1544 days (median 833 days) about all-cause mortality and cardiovascular (CV) mortality. Surprisingly, there is no mortality event in High CFR High GNRI group. We analyzed about all-cause mortality, CV mortality. Kaplan-Meyer analysis shows there are statistically intergroup differences in each (all-cause mortality; log rank p&lt;0.01, CV mortality; log rank p=0.02). Furthermore, we calculated area under the curve (AUC) analysis, net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI)m adding GNRI and CFR on conventional risk factors. There are intergroup differences for all-cause mortality in AUC [conventional risk factors, +GNRI, +GNRI+CFR; 0.70, 0.72 (p=0.29), 0.79 (p&lt;0.01)], NRI [+GNRI; 0.32 (p=0.04), +GNRI+CFR 0.82 (p&lt;0.01)] and IDI [+GNRI; 0.01 (p=0.05), +GNRI+CFR 0.09 (p&lt;0.01)]. Conclusion HD patients with low CFR and malnutrition status has statistically significant poorer prognosis comparing HD patients with high CFR and without malnutrition status. Adding combination of GNRI and CFR on conventional risk factors improves the predictability of HD population's prognosis. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None
