Opis:
The most effective and the cheapest method of cardiovascular disease prevention is changing lifestyle. Cardiovascular disease is caused by many factors. They include: a diet rich in saturated fat and cholesterol, smoking, a sedentary lifestyle, physical inactivity, overweight and obesity. The aim of the research was to assess the level of knowledge of the students of the Medical University about cardiovascular disease prevention. Material and methods: Research was conducted on 200 students of the Medical University of Lublin, residing in the Student House No. 4 in Lublin. Self-authorship questionnaires were used to assess the level of knowledge of the students of the Medical University about cardiovascular disease prevention. Research results: The students of the Medical University have broad knowledge about the influence of physical activity, diet, cigarettes and alcohol use on cardiovascular disease prevention. 90.5 percent of the respondents know that smoking greatly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. More than a half of the students are aware that excessive alcohol consumption has a negative impact on the cardiovascular system. 38.67 percent of the respondents recognize moderate alcohol consumption as protective for cardiovascular disease. The remaining 3.13 percent of the students have no knowledge about this issue. Almost half of the respondents (45 percent) is aware that psychosocial factors have an impact on the cardiovascular system. 86.5 percent of the students believe that there is a correlation between cardiovascular disease and factors such as: low socioeconomic status, social isolation, stress, negative emotions, depression. The remaining 13.5 percent of the respondents have incomplete knowledge about this issue. Almost the half of the respondents knows that type A personality increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, whereas the remaining 52 percent of the students have incomplete knowledge about this issue.

Opis:
Over the years, researchers have focused on identifying specific personality traits associated with specific disease manifestations. Mental health and psychological status, as well as personality characteristics, have been studied and identified as some of the prognostic factors of cardiovascular disease, along with physical ones, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes mellitus. This article focuses on Type D personality characteristics and the way it may affect the onset of cardiovascular disease, the prognosis and quality of life of patients. People with different personality characteristics adjust differently to disease. More specifically, people with type D personality have been found to have poor general health and suffer for a variety of health-threatening situations. Type D personality and psychological distress, in general, have been suggested as causes for poor prognosis for patients with cardiovascular disease, as these patients are less adherent to their therapy and have a number of unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as smoking and low activity levels. It seems necessary that attention should be paid to psychological characteristics and personality types, as risk or protective factors for cardiovascular disease.
Na przestrzeni lat naukowcy skupili się na określeniu specyficznych cech osobowości związanych z konkretnymi objawami choroby. Zdrowie psychiczne i stan psychiczny oraz cechy osobowościowe zostały zbadane i zidentyfikowane jako niektóre z czynników prognostycznych choroby sercowo-naczyniowej, jak i fizyczne, takie jak nadciśnienie tętnicze, hiperlipidemia i cukrzyca. W tym artykule skupiono się na charakterystyce osobowości typu D oraz sposobie jego wpływu na początek choroby sercowo-naczyniowej, rokowania i jakość życia pacjentów. Osoby o różnych cechach osobowości różnią się w zależności od choroby. Dokładniej mówiąc, u pacjentów z osobowością typu D stwierdzono, że mają słabe zdrowie ogólne i cierpią z powodu różnych stanów zagrażających życiu. Typowa osobowość typu D i psychiczne cierpienia są ogólnie sugerowane jako przyczyny złego rokowania u chorych na choroby sercowo-naczyniowe, ponieważ pacjenci są mniej przyzwyczajeni do terapii i mają wiele niezdrowych nawyków związanych ze stylem życia, takich jak palenie tytoniu i niskie poziomy aktywności. Wydaje się, że należy zwrócić uwagę na cechy psychiczne i typy osobowości, jako czynniki ryzyka lub czynniki chroniące chorobę układu sercowo-naczyniowego.

Opis:
Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease has been recognized as the leading cause of death for both men and women in developed countries. During the past century epidemiological and observational studies established that inappropriate nutrition together with reduced physical activity and increased tobacco consumption are key factors for cardiovascular disease development. Recent epidemiological and clinical trial data provide evidence of the great effectiveness of dietary interventions in cardiovascular disease prevention and treatment. Therefore, the efforts to improve diet play an important role in shifting population disease risk. In this paper, the scientific background and current recommendations for dietary prevention of cardiovascular disease are summarized.

Opis:
Introduction and objective. There are some clinical situations where a high level of HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) may be unfavourable. In these situations, HDL-C may undergo some changes, and even if its quantity is within the reference range, its quality is no longer the same. Brief description of state of knowledge. Diabetes is the state of elevated oxidative stress. Studies conducted to-date have revealed an increased production of the reactive forms of oxygen as the result of tissue damage in diabetes patients. The expression ‘dysfunctional HDL’ has been coined in the literature to describe high-density lipoproteins that lose their antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties, that is, HDL-C that loses its basic functions. Recent observational studies have confirmed that the atheroprotective activity of properly functioning HDL-C is frequently impaired in clinical situations associated with oxidative stress. The presented review lays the foundation for a new approach to understanding how the functional properties of HDL help reduce cardiovascular risk. Conclusions. In the light of presented findings it seems that there is a need to seek a better diagnostic marker than HDL-C level. This study presents some possible directions for future research to bring us closer to the full understanding of the HDL particle and its role in patients with ischemic heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Opis:
Cardiovascular disease is at the forefront of global health issues and contributes to myocardial infarction, stroke, and even death. Lyme disease (LD), spread by ticks of the genus Ixodes, is a contributing factor to the potential development of abnormalities in the heart. The bacterial agents Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydia pneumoniae, and Borrelia burgdorferi are known to cause a variety of infections and we speculate that infection with Borrelia is a contributing factor to cardiac abnormalities, especially Lyme carditis (LC). Patients who demonstrate undiagnosed cardiac abnormalities should be monitored for potential infection with Lyme disease and, consequently LC. Lyme carditis affects up to 10% of patients that have been diagnosed with LD and additionally, it indiscriminately manifests across a range of ages, from the pediatric populace to the elderly. Given the grave cardiac abnormalities that can arise from LC and the propensity for misdiagnosis, it is critical that medical professionals be aware of the cardiovascular signs and symptoms of Atrioventricular Heart Block (AHB). AHB can lead to third degree heart block in patients and potentially lead to death if left not properly diagnosed and treated. Essential treatments are readily available for Lyme carditis, which include a range of antibiotics and surgical procedures. In this review, we highlight not only the true nature of Lyme disease, but more importantly, the positive correlation between LD and a variety of undiagnosed heart complications.

Opis:
Hungarian Americans share a unique culture of food traditions associated with their value system and way of life. Researchers, health care providers, and nutrition professionals counseling and treating a Hungarian-American population should develop a baseline of cultural understanding to achieve successful and long-lasting behavior change outcomes. The leading causes of death among Hungarians include ischemic heart disease (21.3%), stroke (13.4%), and cirrhosis (5.8%); all are directly or indirectly attributed to a traditional Hungarian diet coupled with a sedentary lifestyle. Health behaviors among Hungarian Americans can be partially explained by the Health Belief Model’s value-expectancy construct. Understanding cultural expectations and their associated values serve as a foundation for health promotion programming to reduce risk of cardiovascular disease and comorbidities. This review explored numerous facets of Hungarian-American dietary habits in psychosocial, economic, historical, and cultural contexts. Health education and health promotion considerations were also examined.

Opis:
Coronary Artery Disease is the type of cardiovascular disease (CVD) that happens when the blood vessels which stream the blood toward the heart, either become tapered or blocked. Of this, the heart is incapable to push sufficient blood to encounter its requirements. This would lead to angina (chest pain). CVDs are the leading cause of mortality worldwide. According to WHO, in the year 2019 17.9 million people deceased from CVD. Machine Learning is a type of artificial intelligence that uses algorithms to help analyse large datasets more efficiently. It can be used in medical research to help process large amounts of data quickly, such as patient records or medical images. By using Machine Learning techniques and methods, scientists can automate the analysis of complex and large datasets to gain deeper insights into the data. Machine Learning is a type of technology that helps with gathering data and understanding patterns. Recently, researchers in the healthcare industry have been using Machine Learning techniques to assist with diagnosing heart-related diseases. This means that the professionals involved in the diagnosis process can use Machine Learning to help them figure out what is wrong with a patient and provide appropriate treatment. This paper evaluates different machine learning models performances. The Supervised Learning algorithms are used commonly in Machine Learning which means that the training is done using labelled data, belonging to a particular classification. Such classification methods like Random Forest, Decision Tree, K-Nearest Neighbour, XGBoost algorithm, Naïve Bayes, and Support Vector Machine will be used to assess the cardiovascular disease by Machine Learning.

Introduction. Education is a key tool in the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Education programmes require monitoring of their effectiveness. Objectives. 1) to introduce postal screening for the assessment of knowledge on CVD risk factors (RFs) for the Polish population, 2) to assess this knowledge in adult residents of Małopolska Voivodeship, and 3) to assess whether knowledge on RFs is related to age, gender, place of residence, level of education and family history of CVD. Materials and method. Anonymous questionnaires were posted to a random sample of 5,000 residents of Małopolska Voivodeship in Poland. Results were presented as proportions of participants who listed RFs correctly. A series of multiple logistic regression models was used to assess the associations of knowledge on RFs with the potential determinants. Results. 1,126 completed questionnaires were returned. Over 35% of respondents could not list a single RF and 14 % listed only 1–2 RFs. About 40% named 3–5 and only 12% listed 6 or more RFs. About a half of the respondents listed incorrectly from 1–8 characteristics as being associated with higher risk of CVD. In the multivariate analysis, knowledge on RFs was not significantly associated with age. Level of education was the strongest determinant of knowledge. Male rural and small town residents had less knowledge, whereas women with a family history of CVD had more knowledge on some CVD RFs. Conclusions. Using a postal questionnaire for the assessment of knowledge of CVD RFs in the population of Małopolska Voivodeship appeared to have serious limitations due to low participation in the study. Despite this, the results of the study indicate that knowledge on CVD RFs is insufficient. Female gender and higher education were related to more prevalent knowledge on RFs. Family history of CVD was related to better knowledge in women only. Male residents of rural areas and small towns had slightly less knowledge on CVD RFs.

Background. The appropriate nutrition is an important component of the secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Objectives. The aim of the study was to investigate if the patients with cardiovascular disease were informed of the role of appropriate nutrition in prevention or received nutrition guidelines and to assess the dietary intake compared to recommendations for patients with cardiovascular disease who received or not nutrition guidelines. Material and Methods. The study was conducted among patients with cardiovascular disease (n = 127) of cardiological hospital clinic, aged 62 ± 11. The questionnaire was used to obtain personal and anthropometric details, information if patients had received nutrition guidelines. The method of 3-day food records was used for dietary assessment. Results. 20% of subjects had not received nutrition guidelines and almost 40% of subjects did not recognize the nutrition effect on cardiovascular disease development. Compared to the diets of the subjects who had not received nutrition guidelines, the diets of those who had received them were of significantly lower intake of: energy from saturated fatty acids (15%, p = 0.006), cholesterol (21%, p = 0.012) and higher intake (14-26%) of potassium (p = 0,003), sodium (p = 0.013), phosphorus (p = 0.044), magnesium (p = 0.003), iron (p = 0.005), copper (p = 0.001), zinc (p = 0.046). Among the patients who had received nutrition guidelines, percentage of the subjects whose intake of nutrients was consistent with recommendations was higher. Conclusions. Not all subjects had received nutrition guidelines. Diets of those who had received them were more balanced, but in neither group nutrition guidelines were complied with.
Wprowadzenie. Prawidłowe żywienie jest ważnym elementem w ochronie wtórnej u pacjentów z chorobami układu sercowo-naczyniowego (CVD). Cel. Celem badania była ocena czy pacjenci ze zdiagnozowanymi chorobami układu sercowo-naczyniowego zostali poinformowani o roli odżywiania podczas leczenia oraz czy otrzymali zalecenia żywieniowe w ramach profilaktyki wtórnej, jak też ocena porównawcza sposobu żywienia osób, które otrzymały lub nie zalecenia żywieniowe. Materiał i metody. Badanie przeprowadzono wśród 127 pacjentów kliniki kardiologicznej jednego z warszawskich szpitali, pacjenci byli w wieku 62 ± 11 lat. Informacje nt. danych socjo-demograficznych i antropometrycznych oraz otrzymania zaleceń żywieniowych zostały zebrane za pomocą autorskiego kwestionariusza. Badane osoby wypełniły również kwestionariusz 3-dniowego bieżącego notowania spożycia żywności w celu oceny sposobu żywienia. Wyniki. Dwadzieścia procent osób nie otrzymało zaleceń żywieniowych, a prawie 40% osób nie dostrzegło wpływu żywienia na rozwój choroby. Odnotowano statystycznie istotne różnice w sposobie żywienia pomiędzy osobami, które uzyskały zalecenia żywieniowe a osobami, które takich zaleceń nie otrzymały, tj. niższy udział energii z nasyconych kwasów tłuszczowych (SFA) o 15%, niższe o 21% średnie spożycie cholesterolu oraz wyższe o 14-26% spożycie składników mineralnych, tj. potasu, sodu, fosforu, magnezu, żelaza, miedzi i cynku. Ponadto grupa osób, która otrzymała zalecenia żywieniowe charakteryzowała się lepszą realizacją norm na składniki żywieniowe i większą prawidłowością sposobu żywienia. Wnioski. Pomimo kluczowej roli, jaką odgrywa żywienie w profilaktyce i leczeniu chorób układu sercowo-naczyniowego, nie wszystkie badane osoby otrzymały wskazówki jak powinny się odżywiać. Osoby, które otrzymały zalecenia żywieniowe odżywiały się lepiej od tych, którym takich zaleceń nie przekazano, jednak ich sposób żywienia również odbiegał od norm i zaleceń.

Objective: The aim of this study was to establish the prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors amongst South African colliery executives presenting normal blood pressure (normotensive), pre-hypertension and hypertension. Materials and Methods: Selected CVD risk factors of a non-randomized, available population of 143 Caucasian male executives from fi ve South African collieries situated in Mpumalanga and Gauteng Provinces were recorded. Results: Executives with pre-hypertension and hypertension exhibited a higher prevalence of CVD risk factors, compared to the persons with normal blood pressure levels. The percentage of executives with CVD risk factors, with the exception of BMI, was greater amongst those with pre-hypertension than those with hypertension. Conclusion: The current study showed that a workplace CVD risk screening process was effective in identifying the relatively high prevalence of CVD risk factors amongst SA colliery executives. In addition, out of all the studied risk factors, undesirable body composition (BMI, WHR and fat %) exhibited the highest prevalence amongst pre-hypertensive and hypertensive SA colliery executives.

Opis:
The term “functional food” refers to modified food products that claim to provide an additional function besides basic nutrition needs. The consumption of functional food is known to exert a positive impact on health and to prevent the occurrence of pathological conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, some types of cancer, and obesity. Functional food products should resemble conventional food in terms of appearance and taste. The goal is usually achieved by adding active ingredients to the traditional food products (e.g., phytosterols/stanols are added to margarine, dairy, and cereal products), removing or limiting the concentration of potentially harmful agents, or by agricultural and genetic modifications of already existing edible plants and animals (e.g., feeding hens on algae or fish in order to obtain n-3 PUFAs-enriched eggs, and inducing genetic and/or nutritional changes during animal production to obtain meat with lower cholesterol levels). Well-designed intervention trials are scarce in this field, and more effort should be directed toward conclusively proving the role of functional food in disease prevention and health improvement among the population. These associated benefits and the advances in food processing industry should stimulate the development of products that would match the requirements of a healthy diet, simultaneously reducing the risk of chronic diseases. The aim of the present review was to present the examples of functional foods that are essential for the prevention of obesity and cardiovascular disease, and thereby report on their putative mechanisms of action, health-promoting effects, and limitations by conducting various intervention studies.

Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted between August-November 2017 at Samsun Ondokuz Mayıs University among 111 health staff. Data was collected with a questionnaire form including questions about demographic characteristics, nutritional status and anthropometric measurements. SPSS 21.0 statistical package program was used for statistical analysis and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Based on waist circumference, 14.3% of men and 31.1% of women were at high risk, and based on waist/hip ratio, 4.8% of men and 33.3% of women were at risk of cardiovascular diseases. It has been shown that eating patterns are disrupted during shifts (89.2%), and 73.9% of participants cannot eat because their meals cool down during shifts. The difference in the numbers of main and snack meals consumed by health staff during the night shift was statistically significant (p<0.05). Body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference measurements decreased with increasing shift time. However, body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference increased as time spent in the profession increased. Conclusion: It was seen that night shift health staff are at risk of cardiovascular disease due to insufficient and unhealthy nutrition. It is clear that nutrition education programs are required for health staff working night shifts to reduce excess weight and obesity in this population.
