CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISKS AND FACTORS INFLUENCING THEM AMONG MEDICAL COLLEGE STUDENTS

2016

The aim of the study is to identify the CVD risks among medical college students associating them to their lifestyle. It should be noted that cardiovascular diseases also affect young people, which students are also. Information obtained during research is necessary for prospective medical staff to acknowledge their cardiovascular health and its influencing factors, as well as for college lecturers to make changes in study programs. The theoretical part of the research discusses various CVD risk determination methods, as well as lifestyle`s impact on cardiovascular health. The empirical part of the research contains information about ten years CVD risk among students, using two Framingham m…

Midlife Cardiovascular Status and Old Age Physical Functioning Trajectories in Older Businessmen

2019

Objectives The associations between cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and later physical functioning have been observed, but only a few studies with follow-up into old age are available. We investigated the association between cardiovascular status in midlife and physical functioning trajectories in old age. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Helsinki Businessmen Study. Participants We studied white men born between 1919 and 1934 in the Helsinki Businessmen Study (HBS, initial n = 3490). Measurements Three CVD status groups were formed based on clinical measurements carried out in 1974: signs of CVD (diagnosed clinically or with changes in ECG, chronic disease present or used medicati…
