The results showed that there was a significant relationship between hypertension (p-value 0.042), diabetes mellitus (p-value 0.039), cholesterol (p-value 0.020) and the incidence of coronary heart disease. There was no significant relationship between BMI (p-value 0.041), age (p-value 0.487) and gender (p-value 0.504) with the incidence of coronary heart disease.
