All of these indicators can be declined according to age, sex, and canton of residence. Their changes over time are analyzed on a regular basis and compared to other indicators such as the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors measured in the population covered by the registry. Within the framework of the national network for monitoring ischemic heart diseases, transversal comparisons are also conducted on a regular basis with the other two French registries that use the same methodology. The registry is the reference tool for validating the regional or départemental indicators of morbidity built from other sources of data. This is for example the case for the construction of a regional indicator for ischemic heart diseases taking PMSI data into account. It is also used for validating the medical causes of death for deaths of heart or cardiac origin and sudden deaths. The recording of the cases of myocardial infarction has been enriched with several population surveys (the latest from 2006-2007) which have made it possible to set up a genuine observatory on the change in the factors of risk in our département, in the département of Bas-Rhin and in the urban community of Lille. In the area of research: The registry of ischemic heart diseases makes it possible to develop analytical descriptive epidemiology. The cases of myocardial infarction have been used to conduct case/control surveys (ECTIM, GENES, etc.) making it possible to analyze the relative protection with regards to heart disease in our region. The registry also facilitates the development of several surveys of cohorts including the PRIME study and makes it possible to study new markers of the coronary risk. The indicators in the registry are directly placed in line with the recording of environmental indicators. It was as such possible to study the influence of atmospheric pollution on the survival of myocardial infarction and to analyze the consequences of an industrial accident on the incidence of myocardial infarction. null France Occitanie Individuals Patients population Male Female Young Adult (19 to 24 years) Adult (25 to 44 years) Middle Aged (45 to 64 years) Aged (65 to 79 years) All of the cases of myocardial infarction (living and dead), of coronary deaths (probable coronary death), sudden deaths (all of the sudden deaths occurring in less than 24 hours without any other cause of death), non-coronary deaths (cause of death indicated as sudden or coronary annulled by the registry), and death of undetermined origin (the cause of death could not be determined) in the département of Haute-Garonne.
