The cardiovascular system at a glance

 1.Signs of heart disease are ignored.

People in the public health department at Imperial College who have worked on it say more research is needed immediately.

 The study is published in the journal Lancet.  It examines the record of 135,000 deaths from heart disease in England over a four-year period.


This record shows whether the person was admitted to the hospital four weeks ago, whether the main reason for the hospitalization was a heart condition, or whether the heart condition was secondary at the time of admission, or something like a heart attack.  There was no reason.

 The data show that 21,000 of these patients did not even have heart attack symptoms in their hospital records.

 Dr Pervez Asaria, head of the study, said: "Doctors are very good at treating heart disease if the patient has been brought to the hospital for some reason.  But we are not very good at treating secondary heart attacks or even treating minor symptoms that could be a sign of death from heart disease in the future.  '

 2.Symptoms of heart disease or stroke

 Chest pain, chest tightness, chest tightness.

 Piercing in certain parts of the body.  It may feel as if the pain in the chest is spreading to the arms, to the jaw, neck, abdomen, and back.  It usually affects the left arm, but it can also affect the right arm.

 The head may feel empty or dizzy.  Sweating, feeling of suffocation, feeling of nausea or vomiting.  Feeling very restless, coughing, and wheezing in the chest.  These are all symptoms of heart disease.

 Heart disease usually causes severe chest pain, but some people may not feel it.  In some cases, chest pain is not felt at all, and is more common in women, the elderly, and diabetics.

3.Predicting heart disease is possible with a 'cheap blood test:

Experts say a cheap blood test can show how likely a healthy person is to have a heart condition.

 Experts say that this blood test is better than checking blood pressure and cholesterol to find out the chances of suffering from heart disease.

 A study called Troponin, a study conducted in collaboration with the British Heart Foundation, looked at the release of protein from damaged heart muscle.

 Doctors have begun performing the test on men and women who are suspected of having a heart attack.

 But researchers at the University of Edinburgh and Glasgow say it is possible to detect a heart attack before it occurs.

 In the study, Professor Nicholas Mills and his team found that people with high levels of troponin in their blood were more likely to develop heart disease or die of heart disease 15 years later.

 Such people can be given cholesterol-lowering drugs to reduce their troponin levels.

 The study included 3,300 people with high cholesterol levels but no heart disease.

 Researchers now plan to perform the test on women as well.

4.Risk of heart disease from the use of painkillers

According to the British Heart Foundation, patients should use these drugs sparingly

 The use of painkillers increases the risk of heart disease, according to a new study.

 It should be noted that the use of anti-inflammatory pain medications such as ibuprofen, naproxen and diclofenac is common worldwide.

 The study, conducted by the British Medical Journal, looked at the health of one million elderly people who have been using painkillers.

 Citizens from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Italy and Germany were selected for the study and compared with those who did not use painkillers.

According to researchers from the Italian university Milano Becoca, people who use anti-inflammatory drugs have a 19 percent increased risk of heart disease.

 According to UK health experts, the study looked at the health of the elderly, so people under the age of 65 are not affected by the study, but it could be a cause for concern for the elderly.

 In the UK, according to the British Heart Foundation, patients should use these drugs sparingly.

 According to Professor Peter Weisberg, medical director of the British Heart Foundation, "it has been clear for many years that people at risk for heart disease should use these drugs with caution."

 According to Professor Weisberg, these drugs affect only those who use them the most, while occasional use is not harmful.

5.'Risk of sudden death due to defective heart gene'

Every week in the UK, 12 people, apparently 35 years of age or younger, die suddenly due to a defective heart disease gene.

 A charity in the UK has warned that more than 600,000 people in the country are at risk of heart disease or sudden death due to a defective gene, and most of them are unaware of this.

 The British Heart Foundation says an estimated 100,000 or more people are at risk for heart disease that could lead to sudden death.

 According to the agency, more information is now available about this inherited disease.

 If the disease is inherited in a child, they have a 50% risk of developing the disease.

The agency fears that the number of people with the defective gene could be much higher as its testing has not yet been completed.

 Every week in the UK, 12 seemingly healthy people aged 35 and under die of a sudden heart attack for no apparent reason other than how healthy their heart was or what their condition was.  It was not tested.

 The family of 16-year-old Maninder Burke, who lives in Honslow, West London, fainted on his birthday and his family underwent a heart test which revealed that his younger brother Manveer and his mother Indradeep had heart disease.  The bad genes that produced it were coming.

 Indradeep said he was "shocked" that his children had contracted the disease.  He says that in all of them, its effects were somehow visible.

 However, the British Heart Foundation says more research is urgently needed.

 Professor Nilesh Samani, director of the institute, said: "The truth is that there are millions of people in the UK who are unaware that they are at risk of sudden death."

 "If the disease is not detected and treated, it can be fatal and can be a source of grief for families," he said.

 He added: "We urgently need more research to better understand this disease so that we can discover more, develop new treatments and save more lives."
