Cardiovascular risk and cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Enfermagem, 2022
ABSTRACT Objectives: to identify cardiovascular risk and cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents and verify correlations between these variables and biochemical markers, and between blood pressure percentiles, Body Mass Index, and biochemical markers. Methods: a cross-sectional study, conducted at a Brazilian school, from August to September 2019,

Triglycerides and Cardiovascular Risk [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Cardiology Reviews, 2009
In 1996 a meta-analysis was published showing that an increase in plasma triglyceride (TG) levels was associated with an increase in CHD risk, even after adjustment for high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. Very recently, two studies were published that further extent the early observation and showed the importance of nonfasting plasma ...

Cardiovascular risk [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2012
Cardiovascular disease is a major, growing, worldwide problem. It is important that individuals at risk of developing cardiovascular disease can be effectively identified and appropriately stratified according to risk. This review examines what we understand by the term risk, traditional and novel risk factors, clinical scoring systems, and the use of ...

C-Reactive Protein, Fibrinogen, and Cardiovascular Disease Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: There is debate about the value of assessing levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and other biomarkers of inflammation for the prediction of first cardiovascular events.

Separate and combined associations of body-mass index and abdominal adiposity with cardiovascular disease: collaborative analysis of 58 prospective studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: Guidelines differ about the value of assessment of adiposity measures for cardiovascular disease risk prediction when information is available for other risk factors. We studied the separate and combined associations of body-mass index (BMI),

C-reactive protein: associations with haematological variables, cardiovascular risk factors and prevalent cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
C-reactive protein (CRP) has been proposed as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, this association is confounded by mutual relationships with both classical and haematological cardiovascular risk factors. We, therefore, measured CRP with a

Microalbuminuria and cardiovascular risk [PDF]

open access: yesQJM, 1998
The term 'microalbuminuria' has been introduced to describe a measurable increase in urine albumin excretion, which is still within normal total urine protein excretion levels. Many data suggest that microalbuminuria is of value as an index of vascular damage, especially in hypertension and diabetes, and there is increasing information on its ...

Circulating progenitor cell count for cardiovascular risk stratification: a pooled analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Circulating progenitor cells (CPC) contribute to the homeostasis of the vessel wall, and a reduced CPC count predicts cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
