Reusing claims data to assess parenthood as risk factor for myocardial infarction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Earlier studies gave reason to assume that parenthood might be a risk factor for cardiac infarctions. Especially parents of children under 18 years seem to have an unfavourable cardiovascular risk profile. This may be a result of neglecting a health-promoting lifestyle due to lack of time and a shifted focus in life, caused by parental responsibility. We aim to analyse whether a correlation between parenthood and a higher risk for myocardial infarction can be found within Austrian social security claims data.
