Abstract:

Objective

To analyze the regional characteristics of risk factors and coronary artery lesions in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) of different genders and age groups in Qingdao, where there is a high incidence of coronary heart disease.

Methods

From January to October 2017, 1050 AMI patients admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were divided into male (n=683) and female (n=367) groups,<50 years old (n=124 cases), 50-59 years old (n=199 cases), 60-69 years old (n=330 cases), and≥70 years old (n=397 cases) group according to gender and age. The risk factors and characteristics as well as coronary lesions were analyzed.

Results

The average age of onset of male AMI patients was significantly lower than that of females [(62.01±12.35) years old vs (71.43±9.75) years old, P<0.01). With the increase of age, the proportion of smoking patients and the body mass index (BMI) of patients showed a downward trend, while the proportion of female patients gradually increased. The proportion of patients with hypertension increased first and then decreased with age, with the highest proportion observed in the 60-69 age group (62.4%). The proportion of male patients with hypertension was higher than that of females (54.9% vs 46.1%, P<0.05). The proportion of patients with diabetes increased with age, and after the age of 60, the proportion of women with diabetes in all ages is higher than that of men (40.0% vs 27.3%, 42.6% vs 26.4%, P<0.05 of all), especially in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; the proportion of women with diabetes was up to 55.6% in the 50-59 age group. With the increase of age, triacylglycerol (TG) levels gradually decreased, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) levels gradually increased. Coronary angiography results showed that the number of vascular lesions in patients with AMI increased with age. In patients aged<50 years, the single vessel lesion rate was as high as 50.9%; patients aged<50 years were most commonly diagnosed with LAD lesions; in patients aged>70 years, LAD and right coronary artery (RCA) lesions were more common.

Conclusion

Different prevention and treatment measures can be taben for AMI patients of different gender and age.
