Article Synopsis
- Coronary disease is the top cause of death among women, urging the need to identify cardiovascular risk factors, especially in Hispanic women where links to pregnancy issues haven't been thoroughly proven.
- A study analyzed 200 women under 55 who had coronary angiography, comparing 100 with coronary disease to 100 without, using logistic regression to assess risk factors.
- Results revealed significant associations between premature delivery, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking with increased coronary disease risk, while regular physical activity showed protective effects.
