Overview

Cross-sectional study identifies cardiovascular disease risk factors in Iranian adults, highlighting gender disparities.

Key Points

  • Insufficient consumption of fruits and vegetables was the most significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.
  • In the study, 6,331 participants reported varying prevalence of hypertension and diabetes, particularly in females.
  • Analysis involved logistic regression and Chi-square tests to evaluate cardiovascular risk across demographics and habits within the population studied in 2018 . More than half of participants showed one or more cardiovascular disease-related risk factors, indicating a need for targeted interventions, especially among women.
