This study should be a wake-up call β not to label one gender as high risk, but to recognise that cardiovascular disease is silently evolving much earlier than we think, especially in our population*.@TOIIndiaNews@timesofindia@JPNadda
A large, long-term study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association shows that by the mid-30s, menβs risk of #heartdisease starts rising faster than womenβs β years before any warning signs appear. Tracking over 5,000 adults for more than three decades, researchers found a clear divergence around age 35, after which menβs risk climbs faster and stays higher through midlife. @drambujroy@docmohitgupta@timesofindia #health #cardiac @MoHFW_INDIA
#WATCH | Delhi: On study conducted on 5000 heart attack patients, Professor of Cardiology, GB Pant Hospital, Dr Mohit Gupta says, "... In India, a heart attack happens 10 years before the death of a person. It is more severe. Often, if you and I go to a doctor and ask what the risk of a heart attack is, to calculate that, we have risk scores... All the risk scores that we have are either using Western risk scores, which are made up of 6 or 7 risk scores. We believed that if we apply these risk scores to the Indian population, that is, what are the chances of a heart attack in 10 years, if we apply these risk scores to the Indian population. These risk scores should not be validated for us because when these scores were made, they were made on the Western population... When we used Western risk scores in Indian heart attack patients, we saw that 80% of the people were classified in low risk and moderate risk..." (2.4)
