متن يادداشت

The purpose of this study was to examine how modifiable risk factors for smoking habits, alcohol consumption, and physical activity contribute to heart disease diagnosis among Hispanics and non-Hispanic Whites in the United States. Heart disease has become a significant public health concern and the number one cause of death globally, and in the nation. Differences in genetic protective factors have been attributed to the Hispanic population as less susceptible to heart disease when compared to non-Hispanics Whites; however, those studied genetic differences continue to be explored. The findings in this study contributed to the literature by analyzing a unique set of factors linked to heart disease for the two largest ethnic groups in the United States. This study analyzed data from the 2016 National Health Interview Survey and found statistically significant differences in predicting the occurrence of heart disease rates when controlling for ethnicity, smoking habits, alcohol consumption, and physical activity. A Chi-Square Test of Independence was first analyzed to determine association; an odds ratio analysis followed to predict the likelihood of that occurrence among the studied variables. Smokers had an increased risk of heart disease by 40.8% over non-smokers (OR=1.408). People who drank heavy/moderate had a greater protective factor of (OR=.605) over people who drank infrequently/light (OR=.635). People who performed vigorous physical activity had lower odds of developing heart disease (OR=.338) than people who performed light/moderate physical activity (OR=.532).
