Risk Factor Differences in Acute Myocardial Infarction between Young and Older People: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is less frequent in young individuals (≤ 45 years) than in older ones (> 45 years). Young AMI patients differ from older AMI patients in different ways. This article aims to assess the differences between young and older AMI patients. A search was made in the database of Cochrane Library, PubMed, BioMed Central and Embase, sence their establishment to December 2016, using the key words: risk factors, clinical characteristics, acute myocardial infarction and young. Meta-analysi… Show more

“…The risk factors for CVD in young patients may not be the same as those in elderly patients [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. The Helsinki Registry, the first large study of young adults under 50 years of age with ischemic stroke (IS), reported that young IS patients had less related standard risk factors for stroke such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes compared to older patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) [ 14 ].…”

“…Compared with conventional MI, premature MI was associated with a higher prevalence of smoking, obesity, and family history of cardiac disease but a lower prevalence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. 38 , 53 Consistent with these findings, a recent study found that the 25-year risk of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (cardiovascular and cerebrovascular) events could be predicted on the basis of simple lifestyle factors (eg, diet and physical activity). 46 These results support observations from the present study and stress the need for risk prediction scores specific to premature MI.…”

“…Young adults showed lower incidence of in hospital death in comparison to older adults (1% VS 4%). [6,[37][38][39][40][41]. Otherwise, there were observed no significant differences between young and old adults regarding post AMI complications and this reflects the equal provided high care services provided to all patients in our center.…”
