Periodontal Disease and Cardiovascular Disease
Journal of Periodontology, 1996It is our central hypothesis that periodontal diseases, which are chronic Gramnegative infections, represent a previously unrecognized risk factor for atherosclerosis and thromboembolic events. Previous studies have demonstrated an association between periodontal disease severity and risk of coronary heart disease and stroke.

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2002
The primary care physician is in a position to advise patients on the efficacy of alternative and complementary therapies as they relate to cardiovascular diseases. Anti-oxidant vitamin supplementation has not been shown to be efficacious in decreasing cardiovascular events.

Cardiovascular disease screening
Seminars in Perinatology, 2015Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death amongst women worldwide. Cardiovascular risk assessment and primary prevention are important strategies to improve morbidity and mortality. In additional to the traditional risk factors, pregnancy complications such as pre-eclampsia and gestational diabetes increment future risk of developing ...

Cardiovascular disease prevention
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2002In this chapter, we have reviewed many of the steps necessary for effective CHD risk reduction. The first step in the office setting is to assess the individual CHD risk. This combines the evaluation of current CHD or a "secondary risk equivalent" with the counting of risk factors and in many cases, the absolute risk calculation.

Cardiovascular Disease Posttransplant
Seminars in Nephrology, 2007Renal transplantation is currently the preferred treatment modality for virtually all suitable candidates with end-stage renal disease. Compared with dialysis, kidney transplantation improves both patient survival and quality of life. Nonetheless, posttransplant cardiac complications are associated with increased morbidity and mortality after renal ...

Predicting cardiovascular disease
BMJ, 2016An over-abundance of risk models offering few real benefits to patients Emerging as a leading cause of death in the early 20th century and peaking in incidence in the 1960s, cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a major global threat despite a progressively reducing incidence and case fatality for myocardial infarction and stroke.

Acquired Cardiovascular Disease
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 1985This article reviews the etiology, clinical findings, and significance of diseases of the heart valves, myocardium, pericardium, and great vessels of the horse. Each valve is considered separately from the point of view of murmur production. In addition, the role of the cardiovascular system in the etiology of sudden and unexpected death is considered.

Platelets and cardiovascular disease
European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 2002Platelets play an important, but often under-recognized role in cardiovascular disease. For example, the normal response of the platelet can be altered, either by increased pro-aggregatory stimuli or by diminished anti-aggregatory substances to produce conditions of increased platelet activation/aggregation and occur in active cardiovascular disease ...

Environmental Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiovascular Toxicology, 2005The last decade has seen a remarkable growth in the evidence establishing exposure to environmental agents as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Most of this has come from research linking exposure to ambient particulate matter with CVD, although more recent evidence suggests that the ozone might also be contributing factor.

2015
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the first cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. It is responsible for 30 % of all deaths, so that more people die annually from CVD than from any other cause, and 10 % of global burden disease. Currently, the vast majority of deaths and disabilities due to CVD take place in low- and middle-income countries.
