摘要：Background Combinations of coronary heart disease (CHD) and other chronic conditions complicate clinical management and increase healthcare costs.The aim of this study was to evaluate gender-specific relationships between CHD and other comorbidities.Methods We analyzed data from the German Health Interview and Examination Survey (DEGS 1),a national survey of 8152 adults aged 18-79 years.Female and male participants with self-reported CHD were compared for 23 chronic medical conditions.Regression models were applied to determine potential associations between CHD and these 23 conditions.Results The prevalence of CHD was 9％ (547 participants):34％ (185) were female CHD participants and 66％ (362) male.In women,CHD was associated with hypertension (OR =3.28 (1.81-5.9)),lipid disorders (OR =2.40(1.50-3.83)),diabetes mellitus (OR =2.08 (1.24-3.50)),kidney disease (OR =2.66 (1.101-6.99)),thyroid disease (OR =1.81 (1.18-2.79)),gout/high uric acid levels (OR =2.08 (1.22-3.56)) and osteoporosis (OR =1.69 (1.01-2.84)).In men,CHD patients were more likely to have hypertension (OR =2.80 (1.94-4.04)),diabetes mellitus (OR =1.87 (1.29-2.71)),lipid disorder (OR =1.82 (1.34-2.47)),and chronic kidney disease (OR =3.28 (1.81-5.9)).Conclusion Our analysis revealed two sets of chronic conditions associated with CHD.The first set occurred in both women and men,and comprised known risk factors:hypertension,lipid disorders,kidney disease,and diabetes mellitus.The second set appeared unique to women:thyroid disease,osteoporosis,and gout/high uric acid.Identification of shared and unique gender-related associations between CHD and other conditions provides potential to tailor screening,preventive,and therapeutic options.
