概括
美国的拉丁裔,无论出生地,都显示出更高的动脉样硬化心血管疾病 (ASCVD) 风险因素资格. 量身定制的他类药物处方策略对于不同的拉丁裔子组来说至关重要,以改善心血管健康.
科学领域:
- 心血管疾病流行病学
- 健康 公平 研究 健康 公平 研究
- 临床预防服务临床预防服务
背景情况:
- 关于美国拉丁裔在动脉样硬化心血管疾病 (ASCVD) 预防中的公平性,存在不同的结果.
- 拉丁裔人口表现出显著的多样性,可能会影响心血管健康结果.
- 婴儿床对拉丁裔ASCVD预防策略的影响仍未得到充分研究.
研究的目的:
- 根据他们的出生国家,调查美国拉丁裔在ASCVD查,检测和他类药物处方方面的差异.
- 将美国出生的拉丁裔,非美国出生的拉丁裔和非西班牙裔白人个人之间的ASCVD风险和治疗模式进行比较.
主要方法:
- 一项回顾性队列研究,使用来自12个州320个社区卫生中心的电子健康记录数据 (2014-2020年).
- 包括拉丁裔成年人 (按出生国:古巴,多米尼加共和国,萨尔瓦多,危地马拉,洪都拉斯,墨西哥,美国) 和20-75岁的非西班牙裔白人成年人.
- 用调整后的回归模型分析了他类药物的适用性,评估资格的数据完整性以及他类药物的处方/补充率.
主要成果:
- 拉丁裔,无论是美国出生的还是非美国出生的,与非西班牙裔白人相比,更有可能有资格接受他类药物治疗.
- 符合资格标准因种族和出生地而异,拉丁裔人不太可能缺少数据.
- 虽然在美国出生的拉丁裔和非西班牙裔白人之间没有观察到对他类药物处方的显著差异,但基于特定的非美国原产国出现了差异.
结论:
- 改善拉丁裔心血管健康需要针对子组的风险因素管理和他类药物启动的具体方法.
- 将预防和治疗策略与拉丁裔子群体的多样化需求相适应,对于实现健康平等至关重要.
- 进一步研究ASCVD预防在不同拉丁裔国家起源的细微差别是有必要的.

Ischemic Heart Disease: Overview
1.3K
Ischemic heart disease occurs when the heart's blood supply dwindles, causing an ominous lack of oxygen and nutrients. This deficiency, stemming from reduced or obstructed blood flow, spells danger, leading to heart muscle damage and dysfunction.
Atherosclerosis, the primary malefactor, orchestrates this dangerous condition. It manifests as the accumulation of fatty deposits, akin to insidious plaques, within arterial walls. As time elapses, these plaques metamorphose, hardening and...

Cardiovascular Drugs: Classification based on Therapeutic Indications
2.4K
Cardiovascular diseases, encompassing a range of conditions, can significantly affect the heart's operations and the overall circulatory system. These conditions impair the heart's ability to pump blood, leading to a deficit in oxygen supply to crucial organs. Anomalies in the heart's electrical system, known as arrhythmias, can cause heartbeats to accelerate or slow down. Usually, heart rates increase during physical activity and decrease while resting or sleeping. However,...

Lipid-Lowering Drugs: Statins and Miscellaneous Agents

Hyperlipidemia, a medical condition often referred to as high cholesterol, is characterized by abnormally elevated levels of lipids in the bloodstream. When present in excess, these lipids, specifically cholesterol and triglycerides, can lead to serious health complications, often involving cardiovascular diseases. Illnesses like atherosclerosis, heart attacks, and pancreatitis have all been linked to untreated hyperlipidemia. This means controlling and regulating cholesterol and triglyceride...

Understanding serum lipids is crucial for maintaining cardiovascular health and preventing heart disease and stroke.
Serum lipids are fats and fatty substances in the blood and are crucial for various bodily functions, including energy storage, cellular structure, and hormone production. Serum lipids consist of cholesterol, triglycerides, and phospholipids.
Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like substance found in all body cells. It is crucial for producing hormones, vitamin D, and substances that aid...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention
12.6K
Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:
