This editorial is intended to be a reflection on cardiovascular disease(CVD)burden in European ethnic minorities.In some European countries,ethnic minority realities,due to their recent appearance,are still to be studied in depth.The experience of several European countries,where the migration processes started earlier,even more than a century ago,can help by being an example.Many studies have shown that major differences in CVD burden exist not only between countries,but also within the same country when considering different social strata and ethnic groups.The CV risk factors underlying heart disease have been well established.Important epidemiological studies have helped us understand that the underlying causes of heart disease as well as the behaviors that can help prevent them are the same.We are now well aware that CVD should be treated by considering a holistic approach.This is why the social determinants(SDs)of health that may worsen the disease burden or that,vice versa,may improve the treatment,and even more significantly,the prognosis of a patient’s illness should be taken into consideration.For ethnic minority patients,this holistic,hermeneutic approach is of importance.Several SDs of health that influence CVDs have been identified but their relevance for the health of ethnic minorities has not yet been clearly defined.In some European countries,most ethnic minorities are largely also religious minorities.Only a few studies have evaluated the role of religion,which is an important SD that affects the probability of having CV risk factors and diseases.Adolescents,particularly those belonging to the second generation,seem to be the weak link.If we believe that these young people are really citizens of their country of birth,then a way of recognizing their belonging to the community starts from a will to better understand their condition,in order to assist them while they grow physically and mentally.Thinking about safeguarding the health of this population should be more than a health task,rather a goal of social justice. 展开更多

In Mali, few studies have been conducted on the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases according to place of residence. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of risk factors and cardiovascular diseases according to residents in town of Bougouni and its rural area (southern Mali). Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study from February 2019 to March 2024. All patients who visited the “CENTRE MEDICAL DE BOUGOUNI” clinic with known or suspected heart disease during the study period were included. Data were collected from medical records. Incomplete or unusable records were excluded. Data were processed using SPS version 22 software. Results: we included 452 patients with an average age of 50 ± 19 years. High blood pression has been found in 42.70% of cases, with higher prevalence in urban areas (47.01%) than in rural areas (41.50%). Diabetes and smoking were found respectively 5.31% and 8.19% in our population. The prevalence of diabetes was higher in urban areas (5.97%) than rural area (5.35%). smoking prevalence was higher in rural areas (8.49%) than urban areas (6.72%). Alcoholism was found in 2.21% of cases with a little difference between rural area (2.24%) and urban area (2.20%). 31.63% of our patients had no cardiovascular factor. Dyspnea was the reason of consultation in 5.75% of cases and atypical precordialgia in 13.72%. Headaches and dizziness in 8.63% of cases and 21.90% of patients presented other non-specific symptoms. Diagnosis of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy was found in 23.45% of cases with higher prevalence in rural areas (28.30%) than urban areas (13.43%). Ischaemic heart disease accounted for 9.29% of cases with a higher prevalence in rural areas (10.38%) than in urban areas (6.71%). PPCMs accounted for 5.98% of cases, with a slight increase in urban areas (6.66%) compared with rural areas (5.68%). Rheumatic valvulopathy accounted for 2.21% of cases;2.84% in rural areas and 0.74% in urban areas. Other valvular diseases accounted for 3.76% of cases;4.73% in rural areas and 1.48% in urban areas. Right heart diseases accounted for 3.98% of cases and stroke for 1.77%. Conclusion: The prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and heart diseases is high in the rural and urban population of the town of Bougouni and its surroundings (Mali). Excepted smoking, the prevalence of other CV risk factors is higher in urban areas, whereas the prevalence of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and ischemic heart disease is higher in rural areas. These data could serve as a basis for developing tailored preventive strategies, depending on the place of residence. 展开更多

Context: Non-communicable diseases, including hypertension, are major causes of complications during pregnancy, posing significant risks to maternal and fetal health. Pregnancy increases cardiovascular risks, particularly through the development of gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, requiring early screening and close monitoring to prevent adverse outcomes. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of cardiovascular risk factors in pregnant women in Senegal and identify associated socio-behavioral and economic determinants. Methodology: A descriptive, analytical cross-sectional study with prospective data collection was conducted over three months (April 10 to July 10, 2023). The study included pregnant women aged 15 and older from three public hospital maternity wards in Senegal. We studied sociodemographic aspects, cardiovascular risk factors, and collected information on previous and current pregnancies, including the number of pregnancies, parity, miscarriages, the number of prenatal consultations, and the number of fetuses. Written consent was obtained. A p-value ≤ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 222 pregnant women were enrolled, representing 28% of prenatal consultations. The average age was 29.18 years (range 15 - 47). Most participants (90%) lived in Dakar suburbs, 74.20% had no medical coverage, 84% worked in the informal sector (p = 0.043), and 18% had no education. Among them, 30.63% were in their first pregnancy, 34% were nulliparous, and 3.15% were grand multiparous. The average number of prenatal visits was 3.5, with about 40% having more than four visits. Risk factors included hypertension (17%), more prevalent in women over 30 (p = 0.043), diabetes (4%), and smoking (2%). Conclusion: The study highlights critical prenatal health needs and socio-economic challenges faced by pregnant women, emphasizing the need for targeted strategies to improve healthcare access and health education. 展开更多

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality in type 2 diabetics patients. Our work aimed to assess the level of control of type 2 diabetes and associated cardiovascular risk factors. Patients and study method: This was an observational cross-sectional study of type 2 diabetics patients. The parameters studied were: sociodemographic data, lifestyle, anthropometric data, levels of control of diabetes by the level of HbA1C, blood pressure measured at the office and cholesterol. Results: 326 type 2 diabetics patients were collected. The sex-ratio was 0.35. The average age of the patients was 58 ± 11 years. A physical inactivity remained present in 79 patients (24.23%), 2 patients (0.61%) continued to smoke. The prevalence of obesity was 21.16% (n = 69) or 25% of women and 10.4% of men (p = 0.01). Abdominal obesity was observed in 151 patients (46.31%), 139 of whom were female and 12 male (p = 0.001). Diabetes was sufficiently controlled in 65.34% of patients (n = 213) while cholesterolemia and hypertension were controlled in 33.44% and 8.33% of patients respectively. Conclusion: Type 2 diabetes was frequently associated with other cardiovascular risk factors. Control of diabetes and these factors was insufficient. Therapeutic education of type 2 diabetics patients needed to be improved. 展开更多

Objective To evaluate the effect of clustering of cardiovascular risk factors(CVRFs) on type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2 DM) incidence and identify some high predictive clusters in the Inner Mongolian population in China. Methods A total of 1,884 Mongolian individuals aged 20 years or above were followed up from 2002 to 2013 and included in the final analysis. We categorized the participants into two subgroups according to the study outcome event. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the effect of clustering of CVRFs on the incidence of T2 DM. Areas under the curve were used to compare the effect of every cluster on T2 DM and identify those having higher predictive value. Results We found 203 persons with T2 DM. Subjects with incident T2 DM tended to be older, had a higher prevalence of drinking, had higher systolic and diastolic pressures; total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and C-reactive protein levels; waist circumference; body mass index; and heart rate and lower HDL-C level than did those without T2 DM. The multivariable adjusted hazard ratio(95% confidence interval) of T2 DM was calculated based on comparisons with subjects with 0 CVRFs; in participants with 2 and ≥ 3 factors, the adjusted hazard ratios were 2.257(1.448, 3.518) and 3.316(2.119, 5.188), respectively. Conclusion The clustering of CVRFs increased the risk of T2 DM. On the basis of fast heart rate, the cluster of abdominal obesity and other CVRFs had higher predictive value for T2 DM than the other three CVRF clusters. 展开更多

The global burden of disease due to cardiovascular diseases(CVDs) is escalating,and the changing trends of CVD risk factors are identified among Indians experiencing rapid health transition.Contributory causes include:growing population with demographic shifts and altered age profile,socio-economic factors,lifestyle changes due to urbanization.Indians are also having genetic predisposition to cardiovascular diseases and adult are susceptible to vascular disease linking possible gene-environment interactions influencing ethnic diversity.Altered diets with more of junk foods along with diminished physical activity are additive factors contributing to the acceleration of CVD epidemics,along with all form of tobacco use.The pace of health transition,however,varies across geographical regions from urban to rural population with consequent variations in the relative burdens of the dominant CVDs.A comprehensive public health response must be looked to plan over all strategies to integrate policies and programs that effectively impact on the multiple determinants of CVDs to provide protection over the life span through primordial,primary and secondary prevention.Populations as well as individuals at risk must be protected through initiatives,enable nutritionbased preventive strategies to protect and promote cardiovascular health. 展开更多

The aim of this study was to assess the risk factors for non- communicable disease (NCDs) in general and particular cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) among the outpatients of our department of medicine. <b>Me</b><b>thods:</b> We performed a cross-sectional study from April to December 2017 by the consecutive enrollment of outpatients who attended in our department of medicine of H<span style="background-color:#FFFFFF;"><span style="font-family:Verdana, Helvetica, Arial;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;">&ocirc;</span></span>pital Sominé DOLO de Mopti, Mali. Clinical and laboratory data were measured for cardiovascular risk assessment. Framingham Risk Score (FRS) and Systemic Coronary Risk Estimation (SCORES) were computed by using Framingham and SCORE equations. Metabolic syndrome was defined using the harmonized criteria from the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (AHA/NHLBI). Data were captured in excel and analyzed with R version 4.0.3. The statistical significance was set at p = 0.05. <b>Results:</b> A total of 292 patients were enrolled in this study. The prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors was 36.64%, 21.57%, 14.04%, and 13.01% for high blood pressure, hyperglycemia, smoking, and alcohol consumption, respectively. The metabolic syndrome accounted for 23.63%. The mean body mass index was 26.10 ± 7 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. The overall 10-year risk for cardiovascular events or death was 26.3% and 8.6% according to the FRS and SCORE equation, respectively. The 10-year risk of cardiovascular events according to the FRS was significantly higher in subjects aged 50 and above compared to subjects aged under 50 years, 34.46% vs 13.16%, p < 0.001. Likewise, the 10-year risk for cardiovascular death according to SCORE equation was also significantly higher in subjects aged 50 and above compared to subjects under 50 years, 9.43% vs 2.09%, p = 0.02. Regarding gender, the FRS was significantly higher in men compared to women 49.50% vs 7.84%, p < 0.001. This same trend was observed with the SCORE, 14.67% vs 4.13%, p = 0.03. <b>Conclusion:</b> Our data corroborate the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in SSA. A comprehensive cardiovascular risk factors assessment should be implemented in all stages of health facilities and a longitudinal follow-up could help shed a light on the epidemiology of NCDs in general and particularly CVDs and thereby improve their control policies in SSA.</span> </div> 展开更多

The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in hemodialysis patients on hemodialysis at the University Hospital of Point G. <strong>Patients and Methods:</strong> This was a cross-sectional descriptive study with prospective data collection from March 3, 2009 to March 5, 2010 (13 months). Included were all patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving chronic hemodialysis in the Nephrology and Hemodialysis Department of the University Hospital of Point G during the study period. <strong>Results:</strong> Eighty-eight patients were enrolled. The M/F sex ratio was 1.26. The mean age was 41.32 years with extremes of 17 and 81 years. The classic cardiovascular risk factors in order of frequency were: hypertension (90.9%), sedentary lifestyle (71.6%), male sex (54.5%), age ≥ 55 years (21.6%), obesity (13.6%), diabetes (8%), tobacco (8%), alcohol (3.4%). Cardiovascular risk factors related to CKD were: anemia (98.9%), phosphocalcic disorders (85.2%), arteriovenous fistula (AVF) (80%), lipid abnormalities (36.5%), hydrosodium inflation (29.5%). Predominant cardiovascular complications were hypertensive heart disease (62.5%), acute pulmonary oedema (APO) (50%), rhythm disorders (23.9%), coronary insufficiency (18.2%). The mortality rate was 17%. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Cardiovascular risk factors are frequent in chronic hemodialysis. They contribute to the excess mortality of these patients. Adequate management of these risk factors can slow down serious cardiovascular complications and reduce the risk of mortality in this fragile population. 展开更多

Introduction: The complications of diabetes mellitus are the main reason for the morbidity associated with this condition, its cost, and its effect on quality of life. We have previously reported on the high prevalence of complications on a cohort of diabetic subjects. In the current study, we inquire what happens to the risk factors associated with these complications over time. Methods: The study is a prospective observational report over a two-year period where patients presented to the outpatient clinic for their usual care and had laboratory tests, retinal exams, and clinical assessment. They were treated as per American Diabetes Association guidelines in the outpatient department of the American University of Beirut. Results: Out of 220 subjects, 200 completed the two-year evaluation. There was no change in metabolic indices such as HbA1C, BMI, or smoking rates. However, there was mild, but significant improvement in LDL-C levels and blood pressure control. In parallel, there was an increase in the use of statins and ARB/ACEI category. However, their use remained much lower than in the reported literature. The population fared worse than the National Health Assessment and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) population in most diabetes quality of care measures. The predicted 10-year vascular risk was 19%, similar to the calculated risk in a German population study. Conclusion: The lack of significant metabolic improvement points to a lack of effective lifestyle implementation measures, as well as to an under utilization of medical therapy. The approach to complications prevention needs to be more intense and multidisciplinary in nature in order to improve the patients’ outcome. 展开更多

Objective: To compare the difference of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed to compare the difference of cardiovascular factors between 44 patients with RA and 36 patients with OA in terms of their gender, age, body mass index, course of disease, carotid ultrasound related indicators, homocysteine, blood lipid levels, inflammation index, echocardiographic index, etc. Results: (1) General situation: there was no significant difference between two groups in terms of gender and age (P 〉 0.05). However, body mass index of OA group was significantly higher than that of RA group and the course of disease of RA group was significantly longer than that of OA group (P = 0.024). (2) Laboratory index: the level of homocysteine of RA group was significantly higher than that of OA group (P = 0.002). Though there was no significant difference between these two groups in terms of total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein, apolipoprotein B and high density lipoprotein (P 〉 0.05), the level of apolipoprotein A1 of RA group was significantly lower than that of OA group (P 〈 0.001) and the level of lipoprotein A of RA group was significantly higher than that of OA group (P 〈 0.001). The levels of erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C reactive protein of group RA were significantly higher than those of OA group (P 〈 0.001). (3) Stroke volume and ejection fraction of echocardiography of RA patients were significantly lower than those of OA patients (P = 0.022, P = 0.009). However, there was no significant difference between two groups in terms of aortic diameter, left atrial diameter, left ventricular end diastolic diameter, left ventricular end systolic diameter, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, left ventricular fractional shortening, right ventricular diameter, right atrial diameter, and interventricular septum thickness (P 〉 0.05). Though significant difference in carotid artery plaque incidence between the two groups was not observed (P 〉 0.05), the incidence of carotid artery thickening and carotid artery middle thickness were significantly different between the two groups (P 〈 0.001). Conclusion: The rate for the occurrence of cardiovascular events in patients with RA was higher than those with OA. Additionally, effective control of RA patients’ conditions has the potential to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. 展开更多

Methods Sixty obese Chinese patients participated in a 24 week clinical trial. Participants were prescribed a slightly hypocaloric diet and exercise, then they were randomly assigned double -blind treatment with either orlistat 120 mg three times a day or placebo. Their body weight, blood pressure, fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, and serum lipid profile were performed before and after the weight loss intervention. Results After 24 weeks, orlistat -treated group lost more of their body weight than placebo group (6. 66 ± 0. 52 kg, 8. 44±4.08% and 1. 98 ± 0. 44 kg, 2. 44±1. 74 % , respectively, P < 0. 05) . Moreover, after treatment, orlistat - treated patients showed significant decreases in serum levels of total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein - cholesterol and high density lipoprotein - cholesterol ( P < 0.01), but in placebo group we found no change. Both systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure fell significantly in orlistat - treated group. Fasting glucose and HOMA - IR in orlistat - treated group was distinctly reduced if compared with placebo group. Conclusions Weight loss resulting from orlistat treatment and slightly hypocaloric diet has produced favorable effects on several cardiovascular risk factors in obese Chinese subjects. 展开更多

Objective: To assess the prevalence of prehypertension and hypertension, their determinants and associated cardiovascular risk factors in Congolese urban dwellers. Methods: From July 2007 to March 2008, we collected information on lifestyle habits, medical history and anthropometric data in 1292 household members of Adoula Quarter, Kinshasa, aged 20 years or more, 731 women (56.6%). We obtained measurements of BP, blood glucose, serum lipids and qualitative proteinuria. We defined blood pressure categories according to JNC7 classification and used logistic regression analyses to assess their independent determinants. We obtained age adjustment of continuous and categorical variables using GLM and Genmod procedures, respectively. Results: Prehypertension was observed in 30.3% of subjects, 34.9% of men and 26.7% of women (P = 0.0045). The prevalence of hypertension amounted to 30.9% with no difference between genders. Participants with prehypertension had average age, BMI and waist circumference intermediate between those with normal BP and hypertensive subjects. Their glucose and lipids levels were similar to those of normotensives. The prevalence of prehypertension amounted to 33% at age 20 - 29 years and decreased to 16.7% at ≥60 years whereas the prevalence of hypertension increased from 11.2% to 71.4%. The rates of diabetes mellitus were similar accross blood pressure catogo- ries whilst prevalences of overweight/obesity, abdominal adiposity, dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome significatively increased (P = 0.05 or less). Among participants with prehypertension, 73% had two or more additional cardiovascular risk factors. In the logistic model the probability of prehypertension was higher in men (OR: 1.429;95% CI: 1.099 - 1.857) and participants with overweight/obesity (OR: 1.666;1.146 - 2.422), lower in participants aged ≥ 55 years (0.427;0.267 - 0.683) and those with high fruit intake (0.691;0.488 - 0.977). The probability of hypertension was higher in participants aged ≥ 55 years (OR: 6.988;4.561 - 10.706), overweight/obesity (2.263;1.704 - 3.004), those with high vegetables consumption (1.152;1.003 - 1.324) and faster pulse rate (1.013;1.002 - 1.025). Conclusion: Our results suggest that fruit consumption and control of over-weight are important issues for prevention of cardiovascular disease in sub-Saharan Africa where high blood pressure is the main driver of the current epidemic. 展开更多

Objective To compare the relative risk of waist circumference (WC) and/or BMI on cardiovascular risk factors. Methods A cross-sectional data of 41 087 adults (19 567 male and 21 520 female) from the 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey were examined. According to the obesity definition of WGOC (BMI, 24 kg/m^2 and 28 kg/m^2; WC, male 85 cm and 95 cm for male, 80 cm and 90 cm for female), the study population were divided into 9 groups. The prevalence and odds ratio (ORs) of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors (hypertension, high fasting plasma glucose and dyslipidemia) were compared among these 9 groups. Stepwise linear regression analyses were used to compare the likelihood of BMI and/or WC on CVD risk factors. Results Both the indexes levels and the odds ratios of CVD risk factors were significantly increased (decreased for HDL-C levels) along with the increase of WC and/or BMI, even when the effect of age, sex, income, education, sedentary activity and dietary factors were adjusted. The variances (R2) in CVD risk factors explained by WC only and BMI only were quite similar, but a little bit larger when WC and BMI were combined. The standard fl was higher of BMI when predicting systolic BP and was higher of WC when predicting TG, TC and HDL. Conclusions BMI and WC had independent effects on CVD risk factors and combination of BMI and WC would be more predictive. Findings from the present study provided substantive evidence for the WGOC recommendation of a combined use of BMI and WC classifications. 展开更多

Objectives To explore the optimal threshold values of waist circumference (WC) for detecting cardiovascular (CV) risk factors among Chinese children and adolescents. Methods Association of WC with CV risk factors was studied among 65 898 children aged 7-18 years whose data were pooled from nine previous studies in China. CV risk factors in this study included hypertension (blood pressure above 95 percentile levels), dyslipidemia (with one or more of the following three indexes: TG ≥ 1.7 mmol/L, TC ≥ 5.18 mmol/L, and HDL-C ≤ 1.04 mmol/L) and elevated glucose level (fasting plasma glucose ≥5.6 mmol/L). Receive-operating characteristic analysis (ROC) and logistic regression were employed to derive optimal age- and sex-specific waist circumference references for predicting CV risk factors. Results A slight increasing trend of CV risk factors was observed starting from the 75th percentile of waist circumference in the study population, while a remarkable increasing trend occurred from the 90th percentile. The optimal waist circumference thresholds for predicting high blood pressures were at the 75th percentile for both boys and girls, which was at the 90th percentiles for detecting at least two of the above three CV risk factors. In comparison with children with waist circumference below the 75th percentile, the odds ratio of two CV risk factors doubled among children with waist circumference between the 75th and the 90th percentile, and increased by 6 times among children with waist circumference above the 90th percentile. The trend of high blood pressure increasing with waist circumference remained significant after having been stratified by BMI category. Conclusion The 75th and the 90th percentiles of WC are the optimal cut-off points for predicting an increased and a substantially increased risk of CV factors in Chinese children and adolescents, respectively. 展开更多

Timely diagnosis and control of cardiovascular risk factors is a priority objective for adequate primary and secondary prevention of acute stroke. Hypertension, atrial fibrillation and diabetes mellitus are the most common risk factors for acute cerebrovascular events, although novel risk factors, such as sleep-disordered breathing, inflammatory markers or carotid intima-media thickness have been identified. However, the cardiovascular risk factors profile differs according to the different subtypes of ischemic stroke. Atrial fibrillation and ischemic heart disease are more frequent in patients with cardioembolic infarction, hypertension and diabetes in patients with lacunar stroke, and vascular peripheral disease, hypertension, diabetes, previous transient ischemic attack and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in patients with atherothrombotic infarction. This review aims to present updated data on risk factors for acute ischemic stroke as well as to describe the usefulness of new and emerging vascular risk factors in stroke patients. 展开更多

Cardiovascular disease(CVD) is an important cause of mortality and morbidity in India.Mortality statistics and morbidity surveys indicate substantial regional variations in CVD prevalence and mortality rates.Data from the Registrar General of India reported greater ageadjusted cardiovascular mortality in southern and eastern states of the country.Coronary heart disease(CHD) mortality is greater in south India while stroke is more common in the eastern Indian states.CHD prevalence is higher in urban Indian populations while stroke mortality is similar in urban and rural regions.Case-control studies in India have identified that the common major risk factors account for more than 90% of incident myocardial infarctions and stroke.The case-control INTERHEART and INTERSTROKE studies reported that hypertension,lipid abnormalities,smoking,obesity,diabetes,sedentary lifestyle,low fruit and vegetable intake,and psychosocial stress are as important in India as in other populations of the world.Individual studies have reported that there are substantial regional variations in risk factors in India.At a macro-level these regional variations in risk factors explain some of the regional differences in CVD mortality.However,there is need to study the prevalence of multiple cardiovascular risk factors in different regions of India and to correlate them with variations in CVD mortality using a uniform protocol.There is also a need to determine the 'causes of the causes' or fundamental determinants of these risk factors.The India Heart Watch study has been designed to study socioeconomic,anthropometric and biochemical risk factors in urban populations in different regions of the country in order to identify regional differences. 展开更多

Background: The morbidity and mortality of systemic lupus erythematosus are largely due to accelerated atherosclerosis. This is partly related to the high prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of our study was to determine the frequency of these factors in lupus patients compared to a control population in a department of internal medicine. Methods: We realized a case-control study in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus according to ACR criteria in 1997. Patients were matched by age and gender with controls subjects without autoimmune disease. We studied the frequency of traditional cardiovascular risk factors in both populations. The study was done in the department of internal medicine of Aristide Le Dantec teaching Hospital, in Senegal, during the period from August 2017 to December 2018. The statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 23.0 software and the level of significance was retained for a p-value Results: We recruited 100 subjects including 50 patients and 50 controls. The mean age was 33.5 ± 11.3 years in cases and 33.3 ± 11.3 years in controls. Dyslipidemia was significantly associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (p = 0.009). Levels of triglycerides (p Conclusion: Traditional cardiovascular risk factors including dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia were more common in patients. Similarly, renal failure was associated with lupus. 展开更多
