Chronic kidney disease, plasma lipoproteins, and coronary artery calcium incidence: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the association of chronic kidney disease and coronary artery calcium (CAC) incidence, and the distribution of lipoproteins across categories of kidney function and their association with CAC risk. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed data from 2795 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis with no CAC (calcium score=0) at baseline enrolled at the first Multi...
متن کاملPsychosocial Predictors of Metabolic Syndrome among Latino Groups in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA)
OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the contribution of psychological variables to risk for metabolic syndrome (MetS) among Latinos enrolled in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA), and to investigate whether social support moderates these associations, and whether inflammatory markers mediate the association between psychological variables and MetS. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Cross...
متن کاملGeographic variation in hypertension prevalence among blacks and whites: the multi-ethnic study of atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND Many studies have examined differences in hypertension across race/ethnic groups but few have evaluated differences within groups. METHODS We investigated within-group geographic variations in hypertension prevalence among 3,322 black and white participants of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). Place of birth and place of residence were included in multivariate Poiss...
متن کاملAssociations of kidney injury markers with subclinical cardiovascular disease: the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis.
Sir, – Novel urinary biomarkers have been found to indicate kidney tubular injury prior to a detectable rise in serum creatinine or decline in eGFR. These biomarkers may indicate chronic kidney tubular injury and progressive kidney disease [1, 2, 3]. Recent studies have shown that higher levels of kidney injury marker-1 (KIM-1) and albu-minuria are associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) a...
متن کاملThe Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Hypertension is associated with impaired endothelial function in cross-sectional studies. However, few longitudinal data exist on whether endothelial dysfunction precedes the development of hypertension. We examined the cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships between endothelial-dependent brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and hypertension prevalence and incidence in 3500 parti...
