To investigate the relationship of psychosocial factors (lack of social support, stress and subjective well-being) and personality traits with myocardial infarction (MI).
A case-control study involving 100 cases and 100 matched controls was conducted in Lok Nayak Hospital, New Delhi.
Stress over 1 year was significantly higher in cases (P < 0.001). However, difference was not significant when scores of social support (P = 0.2), Presumptive Stressful Life Event (PSLE) over lifetime (P = 0.058) and subjective well-being (P = 0.987) were compared. MI was significantly associated with hyperactive (P < 0.001), dominant (P = 0.03), egoistic (P < 0.001) and introvert (P < 0.001) personalities.
Certain personality traits and recent stress may be important risk factors of MI, especially in Indians. The finding may have implications on the preventive strategies planned for MI patients.
探讨心理社会因素(缺乏社会支持、压力和主观幸福感)及人格特质与心肌梗死(MI)之间的关系。
在新德里的洛克·纳亚克医院进行了一项病例对照研究,纳入100例病例和100例匹配对照。
病例组1年以上的压力显著更高(P<0.001)。然而,比较社会支持得分(P=0.2)、终生假定应激性生活事件(PSLE)得分(P=0.058)和主观幸福感得分(P=0.987)时,差异不显著。MI与多动型(P<0.001)、支配型(P=0.03)、自我中心型(P<0.001)和内向型(P<0.001)人格显著相关。
某些人格特质和近期压力可能是MI的重要危险因素,尤其是在印度人群中。这一发现可能对针对MI患者制定的预防策略有启示意义。
