Microvascular responsiveness in obesity: implications for therapeutic intervention.
UNLABELLED Obesity has detrimental effects on the microcirculation. Functional changes in microvascular responsiveness may increase the risk of developing cardiovascular complications in obese patients. Emerging evidence indicates that selective therapeutic targeting of the microvessels may prevent life-threatening obesity-related vascular complications, such as ischaemic heart disease, heart f...
متن کاملImpaired microvascular function in obesity: implications for obesity-associated microangiopathy, hypertension, and insulin resistance.
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with an increased risk of developing microangiopathy, hypertension, and insulin resistance. We hypothesized that obesity is a primary cause of microvascular dysfunction, which may contribute to the development of these obesity-related disorders. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined microvascular function in 16 lean (body mass index <24 kg/m2) and 12 obese (body mas...
متن کاملResponsiveness to Intervention A JAodel for Implementing Responsiveness to Intervention
For decades, the major procedure for identifying children with learning disabilities (LD) has involved documenting a discrepancy between a student's ]Q and achievement. With this approach, however, identification typically occurs at fifth grade, so children must "wait-tofail" before intervention can occur. For this reason, along with technical difficulties associated with the IQ-achievement dis...
متن کاملTachy- or bradyarrhythmias: implications for therapeutic intervention in LQT3 families.
Congenital long-QT syndrome (LQTS) is a group of inherited disorders that is associated with a prolonged QT interval on the ECG. It can be associated with syncope and sudden death due to episodic cardiac arrhythmias, particularly torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation. One common familial form is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait (the Romano-Ward syndrome). Much progress toward...
متن کاملObesity and psoriasis: inflammatory nature of obesity, relationship between psoriasis and obesity, and therapeutic implications.
Obesity, particularly abdominal obesity, is currently considered a chronic low-grade inflammatory condition that plays an active role in the development of the pathophysiologic phenomena responsible for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease through the secretion of proinflammatory adipokines and cytokines. In recent years clear genetic, pathogenic, and epidemiologic links have been esta...
