Abstract 11767: Alarmingly Rising Trends in Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors and Atrial Fibrillation in Young [18-44 Years] Asian Patients: A Nationwide Analysis Between 2016 and 2019
Abstract:Background:
Traditional cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors can increase the risk of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) even in young adults. With rising trends in CVD in the Asian population, we aimed to assess the prevalence and disparities of major modifiable risk factors for CVD and AF in the young Asians hospitalized in the US.
Methods:
The National Inpatient Sample (2016-2019) was used to estimate the temporal trends in modifiable CVD risk factors amo… Show more
