Higher Education heals heart

 Higher Education heals heart  Danish researchers have found a surprising link between higher education and health. It turned out that without higher education for a long time not survive.

It is not necessary to give up higher education So the heart does not abandon you - this is the conclusion of research conducted by Dr. Eva Prescott and colleagues from the Bispebjerg University Hospital in Copenhagen. The study is published in the journal European Heart Journal.

Scientists have found a well-educated men and women, the risk of hospitalization for acute heart failure   (AHF) is almost two times less than that of people not so educated. The researchers also tracked absolutely clear socioeconomic patterns in patients with AHF, which did not stem from a difference in their style of life.

How can we explain this discrepancy? Dr. Prescott believes that the thing is, what treatment patients receive. Educated people are more likely to pass through echocardiography   ( ECG ), Which can detect disorders of the heart in the early stages even in otherwise healthy patient. Therefore, prevention and treatment acute heart failure   carried out prior to admission.

"You can not lose even a risk factor acute heart failure As psychosocial stress, - says Dr. Prescott. - Unfortunately, this factor has received very little scientific attention until recently. "

Scientists from Denmark watched 18,616 people over 31 years. Risk factors were assessed by means of special questionnaires by random people also conducted ECG .
