Since we started coronary artery bypass surgery in 1992, there are definitely a lot of “young people” who come for bypass surgery. So, who exactly is prone to coronary heart disease? 1, coronary heart disease is mostly seen in middle-aged and elderly people over 40 years old, and progresses faster after 49 years old. There are more young male patients than young female patients, but postmenopausal women and women over the age of 60, the risk is almost equal to or even greater than that of men. Older people are more likely to have a heart attack. 2. Smokers are at least two times more likely to develop the disease than nonsmokers. This is proportional to the number of cigarettes smoked per day. In the age group of thirty-five to forty-five, the number of smokers who die from coronary artery disease is more than five times greater than the number of nonsmokers who die from coronary artery disease. Cigarettes can damage arteries, accelerate the formation of atherosclerosis and make the heart hypoxic. 3, diet: often into the higher calorie diet, more animal fat, cholesterol susceptible to this disease. At the same time, people who eat a lot of food are also susceptible to this disease. 4.If you have high blood pressure or diabetes, you will increase the risk of coronary artery disease. Men with diabetes are two times more likely to develop coronary artery disease than other men, and women with diabetes are five times more likely to develop coronary artery disease than other women. Having high blood pressure means that the heart has to work twice as hard. The higher the chance of a heart attack, the higher the chance of a heart attack. Elevated blood pressure is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease. Patients with hypertension are four times more likely to suffer from the disease than those with normal blood pressure. 5, coronary heart disease has family heredity, if someone in the family suffering from coronary heart disease, more likely to have a heart attack. 6, overweight, the possibility of coronary heart disease is greater than the normal weight of people. People who are more than 20% overweight are three times more likely to have a heart attack than those who are of healthy weight. 7, if you are engaged in often sitting work, the likelihood of coronary artery disease is greater than in workers including manual labor. Lack of exercise heart is not strong people have twice the chance of a heart attack than healthy people. 8, if a woman, has been over 35 years of age, and in the use of contraceptive pills, than women using other forms of contraception are prone to coronary heart disease. 9, hyperlipidemia: due to genetic factors, or excessive fat intake, or lipid metabolism disorders resulting in dyslipidemia. Such as total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased with the disease, while the reduction of high-density lipoprotein susceptible to the disease. The amount of blood cholesterol should preferably be lower than 200 mg per 100 ml (5.2 mmol/L). The higher the level, the higher the risk. 10. Persistent mental stress is one of the recognized causative factors. Brain workers are greater than manual workers, and jobs that often have a sense of urgency are more likely to be diseased. Among the above factors, high blood pressure, overweight and high cholesterol are the biggest risk factors for coronary heart disease. Therefore, people who have the above risk factors should go to the hospital regularly for more checkups. Coronary heart disease is not terrible, it is important to be diagnosed and prevented in time, as long as regular medication is taken, coronary heart disease can be prevented.
