OP-004 Pre-Hypertension, Pre-diabetes or Both: Which is Best at Predicting Cardiovascular Events Over the Long Term?




Objective


The present study aimed to assess the value of pre-diabetes and pre-hypertension in predicting cardiovascular events.




Methods


A population-based, cross-sectional survey was conducted, representing a large sample of the general Iranian population aged 35 years and older from the Isfahan Province and determined using a random, multistage cluster-sampling 10-year’s cohort. The five endpoints considered as study outcome were Unstable Angina (UA), acute occurrence of myocardial infarction (MI), sudden cardiac death (SCD), brain stroke, and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD).
