Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and analyze its risk factors among male residents in nursing homes in Shuangliu district, Chengdu.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted from 2014 to 2023 among male permanent residents aged 65 years or older from 24 nursing homes in Shuangliu district, Chengdu. The prevalence of AAA was calculated. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify risk factors for AAA.Results:Among 3 092 elderly males screened, 98 cases of AAA were detected, with a prevalence rate of 3.17%. The mean age of AAA patients was (73.9±6.9)years, with height of (157.79±5.87)cm and weight of (57.90±9.45)kg. Univariate analysis showed that hypertension, systolic blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, smoking, and alcohol consumption were significantly associated with AAA prevalence (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified cerebrovascular disease ( OR=7.201), cardiovascular disease ( OR=12.412), smoking ( OR=2.887), and alcohol consumption ( OR=1.675) as independent risk factors for AAA in this population (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of AAA among male nursing home residents in Shuangliu district, Chengdu is 3.17%. The main risk factors include alcohol consumption, cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, and smoking.
