RESUMO
To investigate the trend and risk of coronary artery diseases [CAD], myocardial Infarction [MI], hypertension [HT], stroke, cerebrovascular disease [CVD], and diabetes mellitus type 2 [DMT2] as regard to different age groups and gender. We retrieved retrospectively almost 5-year data [January 1st 2007 through December 31st 2011] from the Ataturk university hospital that has database registry system based on International Classification of Diseases [ICD-10]. We included 88,293 patients in this analysis. A logistic-regression model was used to assess the effect of groups of variables on the associations of interest [sex and its interaction with age] with calculation of odds ratios with their 95 percent confidence intervals. Out of 88,293 patients, 45% [39,514] were females and mean age was 56.86 +/- 16.23. The females were dominant [P = 0.001] in all age groups in diabetes type 2. Whereas in case of hypertension, CAD and strokes except in young age groups males were more prominent. We found that females had high risk 1.54 [95% CI, 1.50-1.59] for diabetes mellitus while for other cardiovascular disease females had lower risk except a slightly high risk for overall CVD [1.01; 95% CI, 0.93-1.09]. The results demonstrated that for diabetes type 2 and young age group for other cardiovascular diseases females are dominant and have higher risk
