TL;DR: Obesity was considered to be a particularly important predictor of CVD for young and middle-aged men, and this result will be used for developing intervention relating to lifestyle modification for youngand middle-aging men.
Abstract: This study aimed to identify the risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) among age groups using the Framingham risk score (FRS). The research design used was a cross sectional descriptive study using the Sixth Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2013-2015. Data from 5211 men, between the ages of 30-74 was analyzed. After adjusting for age, the result of logistic regression analysis showed that obesity (OR=2.51 95% CI=2.05-3.07), physical inactivity (OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.39-2.10), heavy alcohol drinking (OR=1.33, 95% CI=1.09-1.62), and dietary fiber intake (OR=0.99, 95% CI=0.98-0.99) were presented as predictors of CVD. Obesity was considered to be a particularly important predictor of CVD for young and middle-aged men. This result will be used for developing intervention relating to lifestyle modification for young and middle-aged men.

TL;DR: It is necessary to improve health behavior and systematic management of both diseases, and to help develop preventive education programs between diseases in this study.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze factors affecting the health behaviors and Cardiovascular Disease and their effects on periodontitis by using data from the 6th KNHANES(2013∼ 2015). The subjects were 19 years older who had Periodontitis and Cardiovascular Disease(hypertension, angina, myocardial infarction, stroke) The final 14,940 subjects were analyzed using SPSS (SPSS 23.0 Windows). Chi–quare test and complex sample logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the demographic characteristics, health behaviors, and Cardiovascular Disease and presence or absence of periodontitis. Results were related to hypertension, angina, myocardial infarction and stroke. The prevalence of periodontal disease was 0.684 times lower in the absence of hypertension. Men, age, education, pre-sleep brushing, floss and interdental toothbrushes were statistically significant. As a result, it is necessary to improve health behavior and systematic management of both diseases, and to help develop preventive education programs between diseases in

TL;DR: It is revealed that an improving subjective happiness of men with andropause symptoms can be helpful for the prevention of suicidal Ideation in married middle-aged men.
Abstract: This study was to investigate the mediating effect of subjective happiness on the effect of andropause symptoms on suicidal Ideation in married middle-aged men. Final Participants were 199 married middle-aged men with andropause symptoms. Andropause symptoms, suicidal ideation, and subjective happiness of middle-aged men showed significant correlations. The mediating effect of subjective happiness on the relationship between andropause symptoms and suicidal ideation was verified. The findings revealed that an improving subjective happiness of men with andropause symptoms can be helpful for the prevention of suicidal ideation. Therefore, the researchers suggest that future researchers develop nursing interventions for the prevention of suicide ideation of men with andropause symptoms based on the results of the study, and evaluate its’ effects.

TL;DR: Favourable changes in several cardiovascular biomarkers provide indirect pathophysiological support for a protective effect of moderate alcohol use on coronary heart disease.
Abstract: Objective To systematically review interventional studies of the effects of alcohol consumption on 21 biological markers associated with risk of coronary heart disease in adults without known cardiovascular disease.
Design Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Data sources Medline (1950 to October 2009) and Embase (1980 to October 2009) without limits.
Study selection Two reviewers independently selected studies that examined adults without known cardiovascular disease and that compared fasting levels of specific biological markers associated with coronary heart disease after alcohol use with those after a period of no alcohol use (controls). 4690 articles were screened for eligibility, the full texts of 124 studies reviewed, and 63 relevant articles selected.
Results Of 63 eligible studies, 44 on 13 biomarkers were meta-analysed in fixed or random effects models. Quality was assessed by sensitivity analysis of studies grouped by design. Analyses were stratified by type of beverage (wine, beer, spirits). Alcohol significantly increased levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (pooled mean difference 0.094 mmol/L, 95% confidence interval 0.064 to 0.123), apolipoprotein A1 (0.101 g/L, 0.073 to 0.129), and adiponectin (0.56 mg/L, 0.39 to 0.72). Alcohol showed a dose-response relation with high density lipoprotein cholesterol (test for trend P=0.013). Alcohol decreased fibrinogen levels (−0.20 g/L, −0.29 to −0.11) but did not affect triglyceride levels. Results were similar for crossover and before and after studies, and across beverage types.
Conclusions Favourable changes in several cardiovascular biomarkers (higher levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol and adiponectin and lower levels of fibrinogen) provide indirect pathophysiological support for a protective effect of moderate alcohol use on coronary heart disease.

TL;DR: There was no convincing relationship between postmenopausal status and cardiovascular disease, however, there was a modest effect of early menopause on cardiovascular disease.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE: Loss of ovarian function and subsequent deficiency of endogenous estrogens is suggested to enhance cardiovascular disease risk and related death after menopause. The aim was to obtain valid estimates of the cardiovascular disease risk associated with postmenopausal status and early menopause.
DESIGN: A literature search of observational studies was performed using PubMed and EMBASE (1966 to May 1, 2004). Eighteen studies on postmenopausal status and age at menopause in relation to cardiovascular disease were selected. Six studies investigated menopausal status, nine studies investigated menopausal age, and three studied both. General variance-based methods were used to pool relative risk estimates and corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Stratification was performed for study design, type of menopause, outcome, and adjustment for age and smoking.
RESULTS: The pooled relative risk estimate for postmenopausal versus premenopausal status and cardiovascular disease was 1.36 (95% CI, 1.15-1.60). In the stratified analysis, the pooled effect was 0.96 (95% CI, 0.77-1.21) after controlling for age and smoking. The pooled effect of bilateral oophorectomy on cardiovascular disease was 2.62 (95% CI, 2.05-3.35). For early menopause and cardiovascular disease, with the menopausal age category containing 50 years as a reference, the pooled relative risk estimate was 1.25 (95% CI, 1.15-1.35). In the stratified analysis, the pooled effect was 1.38 (95% CI, 1.21-1.58) after controlling for age and smoking. The pooled effect of bilateral oophorectomy on cardiovascular disease was 4.55 (95% CI, 2.56-8.01).
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, there was no convincing relationship between postmenopausal status and cardiovascular disease. However, there was a modest effect of early menopause on cardiovascular disease. The effect was more pronounced for women with an artificial menopause than for women with a natural menopause.

TL;DR: Moderate and high levels of leisure time and occupational physical activity are associated with a reduced CVD and all-cause mortality among both sexes.
Abstract: Aims To investigate separately for men and women whether moderate or high leisure time physical activity, occupational physical activity, and commuting activity are associated with a reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality, independent of CVD risk factors and other forms of physical activity.
Methods and results Prospective follow-up of 15,853 men and 16,824 women aged 30–59 years living in eastern and south-western Finland (median follow-up time 20 years). CVD and all-cause mortality were lower (9–21%) in men and women (2–17%) who were moderately or highly physically active during leisure time. Moderate and high levels of occupational physical activity decreased CVD and all-cause mortality by 21–27% in both sexes. Women spending daily 15 min or more in walking or cycling to and from work had a reduced CVD and all-cause mortality before adjustment for occupational and leisure time physical activity. Commuting activity was not associated with CVD or all-cause mortality in men.
Conclusion Moderate and high levels of leisure time and occupational physical activity are associated with a reduced CVD and all-cause mortality among both sexes. Promoting already moderate levels of leisure time and occupational physical activity are essential to prevent premature CVD and all-cause mortality.

TL;DR: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle throughout young adulthood is strongly associated with a low cardiovascular disease risk profile in middle age, and public health and individual efforts are needed to improve the adoption and maintenance of healthy lifestyles in young adults.
Abstract: Background—A low cardiovascular disease risk profile (untreated cholesterol <200 mg/dL, untreated blood pressure <120/<80 mm Hg, never smoking, and no history of diabetes mellitus or myocardial infarction) in middle age is associated with markedly better health outcomes in older age, but few middle-aged adults have this low risk profile. We examined whether adopting a healthy lifestyle throughout young adulthood is associated with the presence of the low cardiovascular disease risk profile in middle age. Methods and Results—The Coronary Artery Risk Development in (Young) Adults (CARDIA) study sample consisted of 3154 black and white participants 18 to 30 years of age at year 0 (1985–1986) who attended the year 0, 7, and 20 examinations. Healthy lifestyle factors defined at years 0, 7, and 20 included average body mass index <25 kg/m2, no or moderate alcohol intake, higher healthy diet score, higher physical activity score, and never smoking. Mean age (25 years) and percentage of women (56%) were comparabl...

TL;DR: Wine and beer (but especially red wine) seem to confer greater cardiovascular protection than spirits because of their polyphenolic content, however, caution should be taken when making recommendations related to alcohol consumption.
Abstract: Aims : The aim of this review was to focus on the knowledge of the cardiovascular benefits of moderate alcohol consumption, as well as to analyze the effects of the different types of alcoholic beverages. Methods : Systematic revision of human clinical studies and meta-analyses related to moderate alcohol consumption and cardiovascular disease (CVD) from 2000 to 2012. Results : Heavy or binge alcohol consumption unquestionably leads to increased morbidity and mortality. Nevertheless, moderate alcohol consumption, especially alcoholic beverages rich in polyphenols, such as wine and beer, seems to confer cardiovascular protective effects in patients with documented CVD and even in healthy subjects. Conclusions : In conclusion, wine and beer (but especially red wine) seem to confer greater cardiovascular protection than spirits because of their polyphenolic content. However, caution should be taken when making recommendations related to alcohol consumption.
