OBJECTIVE
To analyze the effect of central obesity on new-onset cerebral infarction events among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in the Kailuan Group.
METHODS
This was a prospective cohort study. In a total of 101 510 employees who had been carried out a healthy examination in Kailuan Group from
CONCLUSIONS
The current studies have shown that overweight and obesity are possible risk factors for cerebral infarction, but variety of weight status in the role of the mechanism of cerebral infarction is not yet fully understood. In our research, a prospective cohort follow-up study of 8 years
Fucoidan, a natural sulfated polysaccharide, displays various biological activities including antioxidant properties. We examined the neuroprotective effect of fucoidan against transient global cerebral ischemia (tGCI) in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese gerbils and its related mechanisms. Gerbils
Trans-sodium crocetinate (TSC) is a novel synthetic carotenoid compound that improves diffusion of small molecules, including oxygen, in solutions. TSC provides neuroprotection in healthy rats and rabbits. This study seeks to determine whether TSC is neuroprotective in obese mice. Sixteen-week-old
OBJECTIVE
To explore the relation between cerebral infarction and simple, apneic snore.
METHODS
A case control comparative study with the exception of influencing factors such as ages, sex, obesity and so on in 60 patients with cerebral infarction and 60 control subjects.
RESULTS
The probability of
BACKGROUND
The presence of silent cerebral infarction (SCI) increases the risk of transient ischemia attack, symptomatic stroke, cardiovascular disease and dementia. Increased viscosity is associated with aging, obesity, carotid intima-media thickness, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, diabetes,
Little is known about the risk factors for progression of silent cerebral infarction (SCI). We evaluated the 5-year change in high signal intensity on T2-weighted MR images of the brain in 50 asymptomatic patients with SCI. SCI progression was evaluated by the sum of the high intensity score (HIS)
Recently, hyperinsulinemia or insulin resistance has been suggested to be a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. We evaluated the role of insulin resistance in the occurrence of silent cerebral infarction in 28 patients with essential hypertension (40 to 75 years, 157 +/- 4/89 +/- 2 mm Hg).
OBJECTIVE
We estimated the incidence of first-ever cerebral infarction in regard to its subtypes and analyzed their risk factors separately in a community-based prospective cohort study in Japan.
METHODS
Stroke-free subjects (n=1621) aged >/=40 years were followed up for 32 years from 1961. During
Previous studies have suggested that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may be a risk factor for stroke. In this study, we assessed that OSA is an independent risk factor of silent cerebral infarction (SCI) in the general population, and in a non-obese population. This study recruited a total of 746
Cerebral infarction (CI) is still a leading cause of death in Japan. Thus, the management of risk factors for CI as primary prevention is one of the most important tasks in multiphasic health testing and services. To determine whether carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is a risk for CI,
This study evaluated the association between metabolic syndrome as defined by Japanese criteria and its diagnostic components (visceral obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and impaired glucose tolerance) and acute cerebral infarction in younger elderly (age 50-74 years) and the older elderly (age
A 6.5-year prospective study of cerebral infarction among residents 40 years and older was conducted at the Akadani-Ijimino district in Shibata City, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. The response rate for the initial examination was 85% of 1,182 males and 93% of 1,469 females. Nine hundred and sixty males
1) In 113 patients with cerebral infarction, the cause of infarction was cardiac embolism in 35, atherosclerotic thromboembolism in 45. It was either cardiac embolism or atherosclerosis but undetermined in 30. 2) Seven risk factors have been analysed. Eight patients (7 p.cent) had none of these
