1. users enter their data step by step in an interactive form.
2. the widget evaluates the entries in real time and compares them with scientific risk profiles.
3 The calculation shows the relative risk of a heart attack compared to an average value.

Simple integration
The survey widget can be easily integrated into existing websites using embedded HTML code.

Scientifically sound
The calculations are based on independent and verified studies and statistics from recognized research institutions.

Preventive
Easy-to-understand results allow users to consider preventive measures.

Health or prevention platform
A large health platform integrates the widget to introduce users to preventive measures. After entering their personal data, users receive suggestions for healthier lifestyle habits, such as nutrition tips or information on sporting activities that can reduce the risk.

Workplace health promotion
Companies use the widget as part of their company health management. Employees can anonymously calculate their risk of heart attack and take part in health workshops if they wish. The evaluation helps companies to develop targeted prevention offers.

Scientific project for data collection
A medical research group integrates the widget into its study website. Participants in a long-term study use the tool for self-monitoring and at the same time contribute to anonymized data that can be used for further research.

The ScienceFact “Heart attack risk” was developed to draw attention to the importance of scientific findings in prevention. Studies such as the Study on the Health of Adults in Germany show that many heart attacks are preventable through early awareness of risk factors. The widget presents complex data in an understandable way to promote fact-based behavior. It is intended to help raise awareness of cardiovascular diseases and sensitize a wide audience to preventive measures.

Data basis and scientific foundation

The Science Fact draws on well-founded and up-to-date studies as a database for determining the personal „heart attack risk“. These were carefully selected to ensure precise and reliable calculations:

1. Study on the Health of Adults in Germany (DEGS1)
   This comprehensive study of the Robert Koch Institute provides a representative database on the health situation of the adult population in Germany. With detailed information on high blood pressure, cholesterol levels and lifestyle habits, it forms a central basis for our ScienceFact widget.
2. JoHM Fact Sheet: Health situation of adults in Germany
   The fact sheet of the Journal of Health Monitoring (JoHM) provides a deep insight into the risk factors of the German population, including smoking, lack of exercise and obesity. These findings flow directly into the calculations of our tool in order to map individual health risks as precisely as possible.
3. Facts about smoking and cardiovascular disease
   The from the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) The results of the study published in the last few years provide impressive evidence of the extent to which tobacco consumption increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. This data helps us to create a realistic risk profile for smokers and non-smokers.

Our close cooperation with renowned scientific institutions and the use of such high-quality studies ensure that ScienceFact is not only scientifically sound, but also offers practical and individual solutions.

This ScienceFact can make an important contribution to cardiovascular disease research in particular by providing scientists with valuable anonymized data and raising awareness of prevention among the general population. The collected user data, which includes socio-demographic, health and social factors, enables researchers to identify new correlations between lifestyle, genetic predispositions and heart attack risks.

In addition, the heart attack ScienceFact can help to validate and further develop existing scientific models by providing up-to-date data from different user groups. The easy integration of the widget on health platforms or in company prevention programs increases the reach and creates a direct link between scientific research and people's everyday lives.

It is also conceivable that ScienceFacts could be used to test targeted prevention measures. Feedback from users enables scientists to better understand which factors influence behavior and which interventions are actually effective. The heart attack ScienceFact can thus become not only a tool for education and awareness-raising, but also a practical support for research aimed at sustainably reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Heart attacks are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Their signs and risk factors are often misunderstood. A heart attack occurs when the blood supply to part of the heart is interrupted, often by a blood clot. Without timely treatment, the heart muscle tissue begins to die, which is life-threatening and can cause long-term health problems.

To minimize the risk of a heart attack, you should keep the following factors in mind:
