OBJECTIVE Individuals with prediabetes (100-125 mg/dL) and diabetes mellitus (DM) increase the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Since personal substance use such as cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking, and areca nut chewing may confound the true effect of clinical

BACKGROUND An association between insulin resistance (IR) and cardiovascular risk factors has been widely described. However, the association between IR and hyperuricemia has been less studied. The objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of hyperuricemia in a community sample of

Background: Cigarette smoking or nicotine replacement therapy has been associated with cardiometabolic disorders (CMD). Hyperuricemia has been implicated in the pathogenesis of CMD and cardiorenal dysfunction. Gut microbiota-derived short

The aim of this project was to study the risk of developing hypertension over a 6-year follow-up in normotensive men with baseline hyperuricemia (serum uric acid >7.0 mg/dL) but without diabetes/glucose intolerance or metabolic syndrome. We analyzed the data on men without metabolic syndrome or

Fifty-four patients hospitalized in Niger for complications from hypertension between September 1988 and October 1989 were studied. The following complications were observed: left ventricular hypertrophy (56%), coronary vascular defect (35%), left heart deficiency (26%), cardiac failure (32%),

A retrospective study of 194 patients is carried out. Patients were divided into two groups: 154 patients with acute cerebrovascular accident (ACA) and 40 patients without vascular pathology, hospitalized for other causes. A descriptive analysis of these patients is made with respect to age, sex,

Victims of atherothrombotic infarction of the brain, the most common variety of stroke, frequently have recurrent strokes. Risk factors believed to accelerate such events include hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerotic disease (of heart, aortocervical and intracranial

There is a clinical need to improve outcomes for patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (LA-SCCHN), especially in Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) negative and HPV positive subtypes with a significant history of tobacco use. In animal models bearing SCCHN, Cabazitaxel

The insertion/deletion DNA polymorphism of the gene coding human angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) was examined in 109 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and 93 non-coronary subjects (NCS) living in a northern part of Japan. The presence of risk factors including age, hypertension,

Prehypertension is a risk factor for the development of hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate for the evidence of subclinical target organ damage in two groups of subjects without hypertension. This was a prospective cross-sectional study.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death following renal transplantation, accounting for 40% to 55% of all deaths. An analysis in our center showed a 15% mortality in a cohort of renal transplant recipients followed for an average of 10 years. Various contributing risk factors of

Cardiovascular risk factors (CVRFs) have been related to poorer responses to systemic therapy in psoriatic arthritis (PsA). We aimed to evaluate the potential association between CVRFs and the achievement of therapeutic goals in PsA patients receiving systemic therapy. A cross-sectional study was

BACKGROUND Little information is available on the epidemiology of hypertension and prehypertension at high altitude in China, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of hypertension, prehypertension and their risk factors among Chinese working population at high altitude
