Thus, in this study, we aimed to define the prevalence of heart failure in the Mongolian population and to identify significant risk factors for heart failure among Mongolian adults. Methods: This population-based study included individuals 20 years and older from seven provinces as well as six districts of the capital city of Mongolia. The prevalence of heart failure was based on the European Society of Cardiology diagnostic criteria. Results: In total, 3480 participants were enrolled, of which 1345 (38.6%) participants were males, and the median age was 41.0 years (IQR 30\u201354 years). The overall prevalence of heart failure was 4.94%. Patients with heart failure had significantly higher body mass index, heart rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, and systolic\/diastolic blood pressure than patients without heart failure. In the logistic regression analysis, hypertension (OR 4.855, 95% CI 3.127\u20137.538), previous myocardial infarction (OR 5.117, 95% CI 3.040\u20139.350), and valvular heart disease (OR 3.872, 95% CI 2.112\u20137.099) were significantly correlated with heart failure. Conclusions: This is the first report on the prevalence of heart failure in the Mongolian population. Among the cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, old myocardial infarction, and valvular heart disease were identified as the three foremost risk factors in the development of heart failure.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/diagnostics13050999","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,6]],"date-time":"2023-03-06T06:45:08Z","timestamp":1678085108000},"page":"999","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["The Prevalence and Risk Factors of Chronic Heart Failure in the Mongolian Population"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3055-4031","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pagmadulam","family":"Sukhbaatar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Batzorig","family":"Bayartsogt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ganchimeg","family":"Ulziisaikhan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cardiovascular Center of Mongolia, The Third State Central Hospital, Ulaanbaatar 16081, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bolortuul","family":"Byambatsogt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chingerel","family":"Khorloo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Burmaa","family":"Badrakh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8255-6955","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sumiya","family":"Tserendavaa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naranchimeg","family":"Sodovsuren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Communication Skill, Bio-Medical School, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mungunchimeg","family":"Dagva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Cardiovascular Center of Mongolia, The Third State Central Hospital, Ulaanbaatar 16081, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mungun-Ulzii","family":"Khurelbaatar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiac Rhythmology Center of the Third State Central Hospital Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar 16081, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sodchimeg","family":"Tsedensodnom","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nobel Pharmaceutical Company, Ulaanbaatar 16100, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bat-Erdene","family":"Nyamsuren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6544-1777","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rinchyenkhand","family":"Myagmardorj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Department, University Hospital of Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 13270, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tsolmon","family":"Unurjargal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, School of Medicine, Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences, Ulaanbaatar 14210, Mongolia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"7","DOI":"10.15420\/cfr.2016:25:2","article-title":"Global Public Health Burden of Heart Failure","volume":"3","author":"Savarese","year":"2017","journal-title":"Card.
