Abstract:

According to SCORE scale, the overall cardiovascular risk is calculated only for patients of 60 to 65 years old. We can assume that while preparing the regression equation for males of 70 years old and older with no risk factors for cardiovascular disease (smoking, high blood pressure and cholesterol), the total cardiovascular risk and the probability of dying within 10 years will amount to 10-14% and for females in the same age group — 8-10%. The absolute risk of cardiovascular disease complications is pathognomonic for older males, and anyone over 75 years old. The study found no clear relationship between age-related cardiovascular disease and the one associated with traditional risk factors such as smoking and high cholesterol in males. Depending on sex, body mass index was the only significant factor, which was higher in all females. There were no differences in the clinical picture of the disease, depending on the sex of the respondents. Treatment compliance depended on individual personality characteristics of a patient and was not related to the assigned sex factor.
