Premature coronary artery disease in India: coronary artery disease in the young (CADY) registry

Abstract: Conventional risk factors including family history continue to play a pivotal role in premature CAD in Indians. Women have more of metabolic risk factors, present at a later age and have non-ST elevation ACS more often. There is a need to focus on improving use of evidence-based drug therapies and interventions.

“…According to Iyengar et al (Coronary Artery Disease in the Young [CADY] registry), 16 the prevalence of standard coronary risk factors (smoking, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia) is high in premature CAD in India, which is similar to previous case-control studies. 17 Women with premature CAD have greater prevalence of metabolic risk factors than men.…”

“…Mean age of patients in the present study was 54.54 ± 8.89 years which is higher than some Indian study. [2][3][4] Common pre-morbid illnesses associated in study population were smoking, hypertension, diabetes dyslipidemia which are similar to interheart study. 5 Hypertension was seen (32%), which is higher compared to Indian data (from centre for chronic disease control) on risk factors in coronary artery disease where hypertension was seen in 17-22% of patients with coronary artery disease.…”

CAD with its long asymptomatic period demands early effective preventive measures.…”
