Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Risk: Should We Target College Women?
Recent changes by the American Heart Association identify screening guidelines for CVD risk factors for those in their early twenties. Research on CVD has focused on adult populations 40 and over. If risk is identified at an earlier age, then preventative behaviors can be established to prevent the onset and prevalence of CVD. This study was conducted to identify college students’ awareness of ...
متن کاملPopulation Attributable Risk (PAR) of Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) Risk Factors; Bayesian Methods
Background & Objective: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in most countries. By identifying the population attributable risk (PAR) of the main risk factors of CVDs, the overall effect of various exposures on a population can be determined; the findings could be used in CVD prevention. The present study aimed to explore the PAR of some factors, includin...
متن کاملKnowledge of risk factors for diabetes or cardiovascular disease (CVD) is poor among individuals with risk factors for CVD
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence on whether having pre-existing cardiovascular disease (CVD) or risk factors for CVD such as diabetes, ensures greater knowledge of risk factors important for motivating preventative behaviours.

متن کاملIncreased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) with age in HIV-positive men: a comparison of the D:A:D CVD risk equation and general population CVD risk equations.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to statistically model the relative increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) per year older in Data collection on Adverse events of anti-HIV Drugs (D:A:D) and to compare this with the relative increased risk of CVD per year older in general population risk equations. METHODS We analysed three endpoints: myocardial infarction (MI), coronary heart disea...
