Coal Miners

The risk of cardiovascular complications increases steadily with increases in arterial pressure and is significantly intensified in the presence of other risk factors for cardiovascular disease (smoking, sedentary lifestyle, alcohol abuse, stress, dyslipidemia, metabolic syndrome, diabetes mellitus). It reduces the quality of life, which is especially important for people, engaged in heavy physical labor. The most common medical and social risk factors for cardiovascular disease and hypertension in coal miners are the following: overweight and obesity, bad habits and lack of education. The further study of the prevalence pattern of risk factors for cardiovascular disease in coal miners is required to develop, implement and evaluate the efficiency of preventive measures towards reducing cardiovascular risk factors.

Diabetic Patients

Diabetes is a chronic disease recognized by the World Health Organization, which is harmful to human life and health. With the improvement of people’s quality of life, people’s diet structure has changed greatly, and the primary “three high” prevalence rate has risen sharply. The main reason for the impaired life expectancy of a large number of diabetic patients is the threat of a series of cardiovascular complications. According to statistics, the risk of cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients are 2-4 times higher than that in non-diabetic patients. More than 80% of patients with type 2 diabetes die of cardiovascular disease every year, and 75% of them have ischemic heart disease [1]. All kinds of data show that diabetes mellitus complicated with cardiovascular diseases have become a worldwide public health problem. We must try our best to find a cure mechanism and give patients a healthy life. In order to effectively curb the threat of diabetes complicated with cardiovascular disease patients, we should strengthen the research in this field. Through the analysis of the risk factors of diabetic cardiovascular disease, we can let the majority of medical workers understand the superficial and potential risk factors, to formulate scientific and reasonable treatment plan, for further improving the quality of life of patients. In the following, the author first introduces the basic situation of diabetes and cardiovascular complications, then introduces the main risk factors of diabetic cardiovascular disease one by one, hoping that this study can help to improve the cure rate of diabetes complicated with cardiovascular disease.

Prospective Epidemiological Study

In a prospective epidemiological study, a cohort of all children born in 1955 in Helsinki have so far been surveyed into their youth. On the basis of the present seven-year follow-up in adolescence, it was observed that the cumulative incidence of public psychiatric treatment is 9.1%. Marital status of the biological parents deviating from normal or the death of a parent as well as a low social status of the father are factors connected with an elevated risk of required psychiatric treatment during youth. The combined effects of such social risk factors are additive. The risk of necessary treatment was observed to be three times greater in young people who exhibited both risk factors during childhood. The results of the study indicate how preventive measures might be directed. At the same time, the need for more detailed studies in the future to allow preventive measures to be directed more accurately than hitherto, at children and families requiring them, is emphasized.

Aim. To evaluate the degree of awareness of the managable social risk factors for prevention of male and female infertility and to suggest preventive measures. Methods. We conducted a survey among 140 medical students and 140 students of other higher educational institutions. The majority of students in both groups who participated in the survey were aged 21 to 23 years (60%). There were 20 questions in the questionnaire. They were of the following type: Do you know that ... can lead to infertility? Instead of the dots there were certain risk factors. Students answered the question yes or no. Results. According to the results of the survey, medical students are much better aware of risk factors of infertility and its prevention. Most of the medical students and students of other institutions (72 and 73% respectively) plan to be parents already at the age of 23 to 28 which is in the upcoming decade so they have to think about infertility prevention now. Conclusion. Awareness of infertility risk factors especially among non-medical students is quite low so spreading the information about prevention of the diseases leading to infertility among youth is necessary.

Objectives: Cognitive difficulties or impairment may be an early step in the development of dementia. Several modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) may also increase the risk of dementia. The objective of our study was to compare adults with subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), using the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) cognitive disability measure, with adults who reported CVD. Methods: We examined data on 3 key outcomes among 302 008 adult respondents aged ≥45 in the 2017 BRFSS: respondents with SCI only, respondents with CVD only, and respondents with both conditions. We compared measures of disability, quality of life, access to health care, and a composite measure of the following 7 risk factors: current smoking, diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension, inadequate fruit and vegetable consumption, obesity, and sedentary lifestyle. We also estimated population-attributable risk (PAR). Results: Among respondents, 7.9% reported SCI only, 11.1% reported CVD only, and 3.2% reported both conditions, with differences by age and sex. Adults with SCI only were more likely than adults with CVD only to report other disability, worse access to health care, and poorer quality of life, even though adults with CVD were older. Compared with adults with neither condition, adults with any of the 3 outcomes were more likely to report having each of the 7 risk factors; we found a linear association with an increasing number of risk factors. Five or 6 risk factors contributed to PARs for each of the 3 key outcomes. PARs for SCI only were highest for ever smoking (17.2%) and sedentary lifestyle (12.8%), whereas for CVD only, PARs were highest for hypertension (35.5%) and high cholesterol (22.9%). Conclusion: Despite differences between adults with SCI and adults with CVD in several demographic and health-related measures, the overall similarity in PARs for SCI and CVD suggests potential benefits from using effective CVD interventions to address SCI.
