Risk of Angina Pectoris, Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction and Non-fatal Stroke Among Hypertensives
Aim of this study was to investigate association of controlled and uncontrolled hypertension with angina pectoris, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal cerebrovascular insult on a cohort from Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort). Odds for angina pectoris, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal cerebrovascular insult were calculated for 227 respondents with controlled hypertension and 1,287 respondents with uncontrolled hyp…
The Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort) – Background, Methodology & Perspectives
Health interview surveys are important source of health information. All previous adult population-based health interview surveys in Croatia until CroHort, were one-off projects with very limited possibility of data comparison. CroHort enabled repeated survey of CAHS 2003 respondents with almost identical questionnaire, thus providing comparable data on trends of different risk factors as well as their relation to the specific outcomes. Next foll…
Association of Elevated Body Mass Index and Hypertension with Mortality
Aim of this study was to investigate association of elevated body mass index and hypertension with general mortality in the cohort from Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort). Risk of death according to body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure category, in period 2003/08, was calculated for 7,490 respondents, out of which 6,682 were alive and 808 were dead in 2008. Among men aged 65 and more, elevated BMI was associated with lower risk of d…
Five-year Cumulative Incidence of Obesity in Adults in Croatia
The objective of this paper was to evaluate the 5-year incidence of obesity on a sample of 3229 adults and investigate the potential effect of several sociodemographic and lifestyle habits on weight change and obesity incidence in these individuals. The average annual rate of increase in the prevalence of obese adults between 2003 and 2008 was 10.60% for men and 11.08% for women. Analysis showed that development of obesity in 5-year period in wom…
