“…The estimated prevalence of hypercholesterolemia was 42% in Iran according to the results of a meta-analysis study (22). All these three risk factors were more frequent in women than in men in this study, similar to other studies (14,15,19,21). There are various prevalence rates for these three CVD risk factors in the national studies.…”

Background:Estimating the future risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and conducting primary prevention interventions in the high-risk groups are effective strategies. Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of CVD risk factors and the results of CVD risk assessment in Kerman in 2017. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 450 middle-aged participants referring to health care centers using the multistage random sampling method. The risk prediction chart developed by the WHO and International Society of Hypertension was used for risk assessment. We used middle-aged population surveillance forms to extract the risk factors of CVDs. The prevalence of different risk factors was reported. Besides, we reported the CVD risk classifications and the prevalence of some risk factors. Results: The prevalence rates of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia were 20.9%, 9.6%, and 8.6%, respectively. Moreover, 64.1% of the participants were overweight or obese. Abnormal waist circumference was observed in 57.5% of the participants. The prevalence of smoking was 12.9%. The prevalence rates of a sedentary lifestyle, inadequate fruit consumption, inadequate vegetable consumption, saturated fat consumption, and high-salt food consumption were 47.7%, 28.3%, 40.7%, 23.1%, and 25.3%, respectively. The prevalence rates of low, moderate, and high or very high risks of CVD were 90.3%, 5.3%, and 4.4%, respectively. Conclusions: There was a high prevalence of CVD risk factors in the middle-aged population. Policymakers should design effective interventions for modifying the main risk factors. Risk management is the main step to conduct strategies targeting high-risk groups.It is estimated that more than 80% of CVDs, DM (type 2), and stroke cases are preventable using risk factor modification strategies (10).

“…Multiple regression analysis of predictors of lipid pro le componentsThe primary nding of the current study was the very high prevalence of dyslipidemia in women aged 35-70 years of the PERSIAN Bandare Kong Cohort Study, with 84.8% of the study population having at least one type of lipid abnormality based on ATP III criteria. High TC was the most common (53.9%) followed by low HDL (50.8%), high LDL (48%), and high TG (26.2%).Prevalence of dyslipidemia in women was 87.7% in Naja pour et al's study(29), 61.3% in the study by Ebrahimi et al(30), 85.1% in Lati et al's study(31), 80.4% in a study on Turkish adults (32), and 37.6% among Chinese women(2). In a systematic review and meta-analysis conducted by Tabatabei et al on the prevalence of dyslipidemia in published articles until September 2011, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL, and high LDL were more prevalent in women compared to men(13).…”

Background: Dyslipidemia, a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, has become a global issue. Due to geographic and demographic variations in the prevalence of dyslipidemia, this study aimed to evaluate dyslipidemia and its associated factors in women of the Bandare-Kong Cohort Study (BKNCD).Methods: This study was conducted on women from the population-based BKNCD, as part of the Prospective Epidemiological Research Studies in IrAN (PERSIAN). Sociodemographic data, medical history, and anthropometric indices were collected. Diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured. Daily calorie intake and weekly metabolic equivalent of tasks were also recorded. Dyslipidemia was defined as any lipid abnormality based on the Adult Treatment Panel III criteria. Results: From the 2223 women in this study (mean age: 48.28±9.26 years), dyslipidemia was observed in 1884 (84.8%). High TC was the most common lipid abnormality (53.9%) followed by low HDL (50.8%). Dyslipidemia was most prevalent among women aged 65-70 years, the widowed, illiterate, unemployed, and overweight, with very low socioeconomic status, diabetes, and high waist circumference, hypertension, those using hookah and living in urban areas. Logistic regression revealed that only women with high WHR were at increased risk of dyslipidemia (OR=2.48, 95% CI:1.75-3.53, P<0.001). Having a high school diploma (OR=0.57, 95% CI:0.37-0.89, P=0.015) and living in rural areas (OR=0.68 95% CI:0.49-0.96, P=0.028) were protective.Conclusions: Dyslipidemia was highly prevalent in women of BKNCD. High WHR appears to be the only significant risk factor for dyslipidemia.

“…Socioeconomic status (SES), the main variable indicative of economic status of the family, was calculated by principal component analysis (PCA) and considered the subjects' wealth and social characteristics. Accordingly, the studied population was categorized into 5 quintiles: the poorest, the poor, the middle class, the rich, and the richest [30]. BIA device (InBody 770 BIO-SPACE, Korea) was used for weight measurement.…”

Background. 10-20% of pregnancies end due to spontaneous abortions. In recent years, nondocumentary evidence has been indicative of an increase in the prevalence of nonspontaneous abortions in Iran, especially in the Kurdish regions. The aim of this study is to assess the lifetime prevalence of spontaneous abortions and factors affecting spontaneous abortion in women 35-65 years old. Method. Data from the recruitment phase of Ravansar Non-Communicable Disease (RaNCD) cohort study was used. All of the 4831 married women 35-65 years old and with history of pregnancy were included in this study. In order to determine the abortion ratio, the number of abortions was divided by the number of live births, and multiple logistic regression analysis was applied to determine associated factors affecting abortion. Results. About 25.7% of women had a history of spontaneous abortion. The abortion ratio in women was 0.10. The abortion ratio in women with secondary education, first pregnancy and marriage age at ≥26, socioeconomic condition, and hyperthyroid and diabetes was high while the abortion ratio of women with high physical activity and BMI<18.9 or residents of rural area was low. After assessing the effective variables, it was found that women with high blood pressure have 63% less odds for nonspontaneous abortion, which is statistically significant (p value<0.05). Conclusion. Considering the effect of factors such as level of education, older age at the first marriage, and age at the first pregnancy on increased chance of spontaneous abortion, measures should be taken to take more care for these people.
