東臺灣男性急性心肌梗塞患者年齡層別危險因子

This study compared the age difference in traditional coronary risk factors (risk factors) in male subjects with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and with angiographically patents coronary artery (PCA). The order of impact was compared. The risk factors included smoking, diabetes, hypertension, body mass index and dyslipidemia. Male subjects who underwent angiography procedure and confirmed AMI for the first time or PCA were enrolled. Subjects were divided into different age groups according to their age: Thirties, 52 (28 are AMI), Forties, 183 (65 are AMI), Fifties, 312 (142 are AMI), Sixties, 322 (148 are AMI), Seventies, 301 (156 are AMI) and Eighties, 70 (43 are AMI). They were 1240 subjects enrolled in total. It was found that smoking, diabetes and hypertension are the top three risk factors for AMI. Smoking is the mutual risk factor for age groups Forties up until Seventies. Hypertension is the risk factor for Fifties. Diabetes and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol are mutual risk factors for Sixties and Seventies. We completed the analysis of risk factor for AMI for Easter Taiwan males with age stratification. We hope our results will help expand the understanding of risk factors for AMI for Taiwanese and also help establish policy for prevention between different age groups.
