New York medical statistics

These facts are all related to cardiovascular problems and are good for any New York ACLS, PALS or BLS certified professional to know. Data has been aggregated from recent health reports conducted by federal/state agencies and affiliates.

New York Medical Statistics

How is New York unique?

New York has the highest life expectancy in the Northeastern Region of the United States at eighty and a half years (80.4). The regional average is about seventy-nine (79) years.

Despite this, New Yorkers experience the highest rate of cardiovascular related deaths in the region. For every 100,000 residents of New York, approximately two hundred and eighty-nine (289) die from cardiovascular related issues. Although this is bad for the northeastern region, compared to the rest of the nation, New York does well in this category.

Finally, fourteen point seven percent (14.7%) of the adults in New York report that they are in poor to fair health. New York ties with New Jersey in this category.

Fruit fly model

Ross Cagan, from the Ichan School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York City, and colleagues found when using the fruit fly model “our study shows that sugar activates oncogenes in the tumor, which then promote insulin sensitivity, meaning that the exorbitant glucose levels in the blood pour into the tumor, having nowhere else to go in the insulin-resistant body.”
