Inflammatory markers and cardiovascular risk in the metabolic syndrome.
Elevated blood glucose, obesity, high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides and low high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are well accepted risk factors in the development of coronary artery disease. Clustering of at least three of these factors in an individual is defined as metabolic syndrome (MetS). Obesity is a central pathological mechanism in the disease and it is expected that the ...
متن کاملHigh cardiovascular risk in young Saudi males: cardiovascular risk factors, diet and inflammatory markers.
BACKGROUND The relationship between coronary risk score (CRS), individual coronary risk factors and the serum inflammatory markers, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), ceruloplasmin (Cp), and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) was studied in 140 Saudi males without clinically evident coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS One hundred forty subjects without clinically ...
متن کاملInflammatory Markers and Outcomes in Cardiovascular Disease
In a prospective cohort study of patient outcomes following stroke, William Whiteley and colleagues find that markers of inflammatory response are associated with poor outcomes. However, addition of these markers to existing prognostic models does not improve outcome prediction.
متن کاملPrediction of cardiovascular disease outcomes and established cardiovascular risk factors by genome-wide association markers.
BACKGROUND Genome-wide association (GWA) platforms have yielded a rapidly increasing number of new genetic markers. The ability of these markers to improve prediction of clinically important outcomes is debated. METHODS AND RESULTS A systematic review was performed of GWA-derived markers associated with cardiovascular outcomes or other phenotypes that represent common established risk factors...
متن کاملRisk Prediction in Cardiovascular Medicine Cardiovascular Risk Prediction
Few topics have received as much attention in the cardiovascular literature over the last 5 years as risk prediction. The assessment of risk has been a key element in efforts to define risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), to identify novel markers of risk for CVD, to identify and assess potential targets of therapy, and to enhance the cost-effective implementation of therapies for bot...
