A new study has found that women aged 50 and under are more likely than men to die of a heart attack in the next ten years.
The scientists found that during the 11-year study, hospital mortality or heart disease mortality rates were almost the same for men and women, but the risk of dying from other causes during the same period was 1.6 in women. Multiplied
Researchers believe that this is because smoking, diabetes, stress and psychological risk factors may have more negative effects on women than men. In women, the risk far outweighs the protective benefits of the hormone estrogen.

Professor Ron Blankstein, of Harvard Medical School in the United States and author of the study, said: “It is important to note that men under the age of 50 are more likely to have a heart attack. Only 19% of the women in the study were involved, but women who had a heart attack at an early age and who had the same symptoms as men were more likely to have diabetes, and went home with economic and social problems. And in the end, they’re more likely to die. ”
The study, published in the European Heart Journal on Wednesday, looked at 404 women and 1,693 men who had their first heart attack between 2000 and 2016 and were treated at Bergham Women’s Hospital in Boston. He was admitted to Massachusetts General Hospital.
They found that women who had a heart attack were less likely than men to be given Therapeutic Invasive Procedures after hospitalization or after discharge from aspirin, beta blockers, and AC. Therapies such as e-Habitat and Statins rarely provide treatment.
During a myocardial infarction (heart attack), the blood supply to the heart is suddenly stopped due to a stroke, and anemia can cause severe damage to the heart muscle.

This can be treated with coronary angiography, in which a catheter is inserted into the arteries to color the blood so that an X-ray can show where the blood vessels are narrowed or blocked.
Another treatment may be coronary revascularisation, in which a stent is inserted to keep the blood vessel open or by surgery the blocked blood vessel is bypassed.
Women are less likely to undergo both of these treatments. In women, the probability is 93.5% compared to 96.7% for angiography and 82.1% compared to 92.6% for stent and bypass surgery.
Professor Blankstein added: “Although more studies are needed to assess the underlying causes of this difference, physicians need to diagnose all of these factors and, if possible, treat them that are related to the heart. Diseases and other illnesses cause death.
“It can be prevented before a heart attack, or in some cases even after,” he said.
“We intend to conduct further research in this study to assess the risk factors related to gender that may pose a higher risk to women in this group and which may help us to understand that they have a heart at an early age.” Why has he suffered a visit?
Despite being of the same age, women were less likely to have a severe heart attack or STEMI than men (46.3% compared to 55.2%) but were more likely to have heart disease without blockage.
STEMI A heart attack is a very serious condition when the blood supply is cut off for a long time due to a complete blockage in the coronary artery.
The most common symptom in both sexes was chest pain, which was found in 90% of patients, but women are more likely to have other symptoms, such as difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeat and fatigue.
Dr. Marcia Tweet, an assistant professor of medicine at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science in Minnesota, pointed out in another study that women in the study were twice as depressed as men.

“Young women with depression are six times more likely to have heart disease than women who do not suffer from depression,” she wrote.
“This study highlights the continuing need and responsibility to study and improve the incidence of heart disease and mortality in young people, especially women.”
He added: “We can work towards raising awareness about heart disease and a healthy heart and lifestyle in our communities by working with local policymakers to address primary or secondary prevention of medical practices.” Promoting prevention efforts, designing studies that address gender disparities, helping to include women in clinical trials, requesting gender-based data when reviewing (legal) drafts, and publishing The research includes reporting on gender differences.
