A comparative study of ischemic heart disease burden attributable to non-optimal temperature between younger (20-54 years) and older (55+ years) age groups: insights from the Global Burden of Disease 2021
Key Points
The study aims to compare the burden of ischemic heart disease attributable to non-optimal temperature between younger and older age groups.
Comparative analysis of ischemic heart disease burden using Global Burden of Disease 2021 data.
Evaluation of age-specific impacts of non-optimal temperature on heart disease outcomes.
Analysis of preventive strategies based on age group differences.
Older adults (55+ years) showed a significantly higher burden of ischemic heart disease from non-optimal temperature compared to younger adults (20-54 years).
Findings indicate that targeted prevention strategies are necessary for older populations.
Abstract
Older adults bear a substantially greater IHD burden attributable to non-optimal temperature, highlighting the need for targeted prevention strategies.
