Summary

Premature coronary heart disease (CHD) refers to the onset of myocardial infarction in men \< 55 years old, women \< 65 years old. At present, researches on early-onset coronary heart disease mostly focus on its risk factors and clinical characteristics, but there is no relevant research on the relationship between early-onset myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis.

Detailed description

Premature coronary heart disease is defined as the first onset of male \< 55 years old, female \< 65 years old, confirmed by clinical examination. A number of studies have found that smokers have a significantly increased risk of acute myocardial infarction, and suggest that continued smoking is still an independent predictor of mace. These findings suggest that smoking is significantly associated with early-onset coronary heart disease. A number of studies have found that smoking can increase peripheral arterial stiffness. At present, there is no study on peripheral arterial stiffness in patients with early-onset myocardial infarction, so we suspect that peripheral arterial stiffness in patients with early-onset myocardial infarction is significantly increased
