Abstract

GAYTAN-HERNANDEZ, Darío; DIAZ-OVIEDO, Aracely; GALLEGOS-GARCIA, Verónica  and  TERAN-FIGUEROA, Yolanda. Future status of ischaemic heart disease in the state of San Luis Potosí: A predictive dynamic model. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2018, vol.88, n.2, pp.140-147. ISSN 1665-1731.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.acmx.2017.10.007.

Objective:

To develop a predictive dynamic model to generate and analyse the future status of the incidence rate of ischaemic heart disease in a population of 25 years and over in Mexico, according to the variation in time of some risk factors.

Method:

Retrospective ecological study performed during the period 2013-2015, in San Luis Potosí City, Mexico. Secondary databases that corresponded to the years 2000, 2005, and 2010, were used along with official indicators of the 58 municipalities of the state of San Luis Potosí. Eight indicators were analysed at municipality level, using principal components analysis, structural equation modelling, dynamic modelling, and simulation software methods.

Results:

Three components were extracted, which together explained 80.43% of the total variance of the official indicators used. The second component had a weight of 16.36 units that favoured an increase of the disease analysed. This component was integrated only by the indicator AGE 60-64 and the expected stage of it increasing. The structural model confirmed that the indicators explain 42% of the variation of this disease. The possible stages for the years 2015, 2020, and 2025 are 195.7, 240.7, and 298.0, respectively for every 100,000 inhabitants aged 25 and over.

Conclusions:

An exponential increase in the incidence rate of ischaemic heart disease is expected, with the age of 60-64 years being identified as the highest risk factor.
