Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk
Current Hypertension Reports, 2010Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death worldwide. Usually atherosclerosis is caused by the combined effects of multiple risk factors. For this reason, most guidelines on the prevention of CVD stress the assessment of total CVD risk.

Fibrinogen and cardiovascular risk
Journal of Cardiovascular Risk, 1995Ischaemic heart disease and stroke are the major causes of death in the Western world. Established risk factors such as smoking, hypertension and hypercholesterolaemia explain only some of these events. Most myocardial infarctions and cardiac deaths are precipitated by acute occluding coronary thrombi, and it has been known for some time that ...

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2001
Cardiovascular disease mortality rates have decreased in men during the past 20 years, but have steadily increased in women. In the United States, >500,000 women die of coronary artery disease (CAD) every year. Although many factors can influence an individual's risk for CAD, some factors are unique to women, including reproductive status. Menopause is

Cardiovascular risks in spondyloarthritides
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2007Spondyloarthritides are associated with increased cardiovascular risks, which can only partly be explained by traditional risk factors. It is likely that the chronic inflammatory state is involved. In this review, novel findings regarding cardiac and vascular pathologies and potential overlapping mechanisms will be discussed.Cardiac pathologies in ...

[Hyperglycemia and cardiovascular risk].
Giornale italiano di cardiologia (2006), 2011Coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes are chronic diseases of substantial and growing prevalence. Although diabetes is a strong independent risk factor for cardiovascular events, this risk is not confined to glucose levels above the diagnostic threshold for diabetes. Rather, there is now a growing consensus that nondiabetic hyperglycemia measured

A case on cardiovascular risk reduction is presented. Multiple cardiovascular risks (dyslipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes) are addressed. Management of the metabolic syndrome and appropriate testing for the newer cardiovascular marker, C-reactive protein, are also discussed.

Preeclampsia and cardiovascular risk.
Minerva ginecologica, 2012The association between preeclampsia and cardiovascular disease has been an increasing area of interest over the last years. Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death in women in the western world and more women than men die of heart disease each year. The most common pregnancy disorder is preeclampsia.
