Hashish consumption “greatly” increases the risk of a heart attack, even among healthy youth
Hashish consumers, even healthy and adult youth, are the most risk of developing a heart attack, according to two studies submitted on Tuesday, … As is the case before the annual conference of the American College of Heart Diseases. Six of the chances of suffering from a heart attack, compared to the chances of those who do not consume cannabis, according to the investigation conducted by the University of Boston in the United States. According to data of 4.6 million people, it was kept in a global health network with medical records available to researchers (Trinetx), the study found that hemp consumers also have a four -time risk of stroke, and weakened many who suffer from heart failure and three times cardiovascular death. All these “largely” are highly possibilities in people under the age of 50.
The three -year -old cases, “did not provide a large shared clip in the heart and blood vessels at the beginning of the study, were low of blood pressure and were within a healthy scope and without diabetes, smoking or previous coronary heart diseases,” according to the article “The risk of myocardial infarction in hemp users: a systematic review and dead bonding ‘progress. Marijuana caused by another work, which is a twelve -year -old research analysis and concluded that the risk of cardiovascular problems is 50 % higher among consumers.
The maximum infarction point is presented about one hour after hemp consumption, according to the results of this second study presented by American heart specialists. By collecting 75 million data, the average age of 41 years, the relationship between marijuana and heart attacks was found in most of the analyzes (seven). According to the common average of investigations, “the active hemp of consumers is likely 1.5 times suffering from a heart attack from those who do not use it.”
The hypothesis of damage
The mechanism in which hemp or its components affect the cardiovascular system remains unknown to scientists, but with new data several hypotheses are raised. “This can affect the regulation of the heart rate, increase the demand for oxygen in the heart muscle and contribute to the impairment of the blanket function, which hinders relaxation and expansion of blood vessels, and can even boycott blood flow,” argues heart specialists who gathered in a conference that will become in Chicago, from 29 to 31 of this month.
Authors, including hemp consuming the most important cardiovascular risk factors. “Your consumption should be part of the diagnostic evaluation to understand the risk of cardiovascular disease, as well as tobacco,” said Ibrahim Camille, a researcher at the University of Boston University and the head of the first study.
However, he explained that cannabis is associated with the use of other drugs, such as cocaine or amphetamines, which were not taken into account in the study, because patients do not give this information. The use, sale, sale, and transplantation of marijuana is legally in many North American states, while other drugs are persecuted, which may make patients “franc with their doctors.”
