Research Abstract |
In industrial countries, the concept of multiple risk factors has favored cardiologists and epidemiologists for treating and/or preventing the ischemic heart disease. Recent advances of motorization and increases of intaking a high caloric food containing animal fat and rich in carbohydrates have gotten worse in the severity of ischemic heart disease. However, the mechanisms not only in evolution and progression of atherosclerosis but also in ensuing ischemic heart disease have not been settled. The goals of this project were 1) epichemiological survey of occurrence and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction in Yamagata and to elucidate risk factors and their clinical significance, 2) development of genetic animal models with multiple risk factors, especially related to hyperlipidemia and 3) to elucidate pathophysiological significance of hypertriglyceridemia in atherogenosis and myocardial ischemia. Regional epidemiological studies of acute myoardial infarction in Yamagata showed that (1) early reperfusion reduced acute mortality from 18 % to about 5 % and (2) diurnal peaks of the onset of acute myocardial infarction were prodominantly seen in aged but not younger patients. Rabbit studies have succeeded in segregating heritable models of hypertriglyceridemia and post prandial hypertriglyceridemia. The latter model is now applying patients in domestic and in the U.S.A.
