Occupational exposure to particulate air pollution and mortality due to ischaemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease.
OBJECTIVES A growing number of epidemiological studies are showing that ambient exposure to particulate matter air pollution is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, whether occupational exposure increases this risk is not clear. The aim of the present study was to examine whether occupational exposure to particulate air pollution increases the risk for ischaemic heart disease and ...
متن کاملBLOOD PRESSURE COMPONENTS AS PREDICTORS OF ISCHAEMIC HEART DISEASE MORTALITY IN THE WEST OF SCOTLAND
The relative importance of systolic blood pressure (SBP) versus diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in predicting the risk of ischaemic heart disease (IHD) mortality is controversial. We have re-examined SBP compared to D BP and other combinations of SBP and D BP in predicting the risk of IHD mortality in a long-term cohort study oflO,541 men and women in the West of Scotland. During a mean fo...
متن کاملPre-existing ischaemic heart disease and ischaemic heart disease mortality in women compared with men.
BACKGROUND In all 8353 women and 7058 men aged 45-64 took part in the Renfrew/Paisley survey in 1972-1976. They formed a prospective cohort study of a general population in the West of Scotland; an area with high ischaemic heart disease (IHD) mortality rates. The objective of this study was to investigate three indicators of pre-existing IHD and determine how they predicted subsequent IHD morta...
متن کاملDiverging trends in cerebrovascular disease and ischaemic heart disease mortality.
The trends in age adjusted and age and sex specific mortality rates for the period 1968-1980 are compared for ischaemic heart disease and cerebrovascular disease. For both sexes and at all ages over 45 the mortality rates for cerebrovascular disease have fallen significantly. However, the mortality rates for ischaemic heart disease are rising significantly for males aged 55-64 and females aged ...
متن کاملbeta-casein A1, ischaemic heart disease mortality, and other illnesses.
The risk factors identified with cardiovascular disease studied in the WHO MONICA project have been shown to have a limited relationship with the coronary heart disease mortality rates between centres, and in mirroring the historical rise and decline in deaths from the disease. Here we show that correlation of the calculated consumption of the milk protein, beta-casein A1 (excluding milk protei...
