Abstract

Native and non-indigenous IHD patients were compared of elderly, senescent, and long-lived groups in order to identify ethnic, age, and gender differences with respect to risk factors. The study covered 354 patients aged from 60 to 106, who were comparable in age and gender and were subdivided into two main groups by ethnicity (non-indigenous and indigenous), into three age groups (elderly, senescent age, and long-lived), and into gender groups. The study revealed ethnic, age, and gender differences with respect to the main risk factors, i.e., arterial hypertension, blood lipids, body mass index, smoking, and left-ventricular myocardial hypertrophy.
