Why is the heart attack "targeting" young people?

January 1, 2021, "Barra's Little Magic Fairy" Ling Meiqi, played by Sun Overseas Chinese, died of a heart attack at the age of 25. The young man's life was fleeting and humbling.
is often called "geriatric disease", why in recent years, but frequently occur in the young adult population. In response, Wang Lei, deputy director of cardiology at Harbin Red Cross Central Hospital, explained that the heart is constantly supplying blood to the whole body, and it looks powerful but fragile. Young people's cardiomyopathy oxygen demand is large, once the occurrence of heart infarction, usually a sudden illness, symptoms are dangerous, many no precursor discomfort, early sudden death rate is higher. Wang Lei said that the occurrence of heart attack and environmental factors closely, hot and cold alternate sharp changes are the key to affect the occurrence of heart attack. December and January are the "heart attack periods" and the incidence of high cold in the north is higher.
, according to Wang Lei, the early causes of heart attack are related to lifestyle. Clinically, the majority of young and middle-aged male heart attack patients are caused by bad living habits, in addition to a large number of smoking, diet oil is not taboo, often there are sedentary, stay up late and so on. Young and middle-aged women who have diabetes and then become obese are significantly more likely to develop coronary heart disease. Once the emergence of persistent stay-up late, excessive fatigue, alcoholism, diet and other induced causes, blood vessels continue to spasm contraction, increased blood viscosity, local thrombosis, resulting in sudden vascular closure, myocardial infarction.
life, because many people do not understand the common sense of my heart attack, can not identify whether it is a heart attack. Wang Lei said that the most terrible thing about acute heart attack is that its seizures are often unpredictable, and although modern medical technology is becoming more advanced, the risk of sudden death before hospital is still high. Although not all heart attacks have precursor symptoms, one-third of patients usually have some early warning symptoms before the onset of the disease. Among them, chest pain is the most typical warning signs of acute heart attack, patients suddenly feel pain in the frontal area of the heart or chest bone, pain can be radiation to the shoulder, arms and back, can be accompanied by chest tightness, suffocation, but also accompanied by a sense of fear or near-death, the duration of more than 20 minutes, up to several hours or days, after rest or containing nitrate glycerine no significant relief. Patients can be accompanied by irritability, bruising of the lips, sweating, nausea, vomiting and so on. In addition, some symptoms, such as toothache, jaw pain, sore throat, arm pain, shoulder pain, upper abdominal pain, etc., can not be ignored.
Wang Lei reminded that when highly suspected of acute heart attack, immediately find a warm and comfortable place to lie flat or find a clean place to sit, do not move at will, keep calm, as fast as possible to dial 120 emergency calls. At the same time can contain 1 piece of nitrate glyceroid, waiting for the arrival of professional first responders, do not pay attention to the wrong rescue, such as shaking patients hard, giving patients food, etc. , delay the rescue time.
Wang Lei also reminded that if you already have high blood pressure, high blood lipids, diabetes, active treatment, regular review, can reduce the possibility of myocardial infarction. Daily life should pay attention to the law of rest, diet should be reasonable, more vegetarian, more coarse grain less powder, more light oil, reasonable weight control;
