Association of RAGE gene polymorphisms with coronary artery disease in the Korean population [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: AGEs (advanced glycation end products)-RAGE (receptor for advanced glycation end products) interaction in vessel wall may lead to inflammation, smooth muscle cell proliferation and extracellular matrix production, culminating ...

Stroke is predicted by low visuospatial in relation to other intellectual abilities and coronary heart disease by low general intelligence [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Low intellectual ability is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease and stroke. Most studies have used a general intelligence score.

Serum YKL-40 levels in patients with coronary artery disease [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is considered to be an inflammatory disease in which the initial process is the augmented infiltration of monocytes into the vessel wall and their subsequent differentiation from macrophages into lipid-laden foam cells.

Background Sporadic studies have examined the impact of OSA on ACS patients by homocysteine (Hcy) level. This study attempted to comprehensively evaluate the effects of the interaction between Hcy and OSA on long-term cardiovascular outcomes in ACS ...

Limitations of adjustment for reporting tendency in observational studies of stress and self reported coronary heart disease [PDF]
Recently, observational evidence has been suggested to show a causal association between various "psychosocial" exposures, including psychological stress, and heart disease. Much of this evidence derives from studies in which a self reported psychosocial

Socioeconomic inequalities in coronary heart disease risk in older age: contribution of established and novel coronary risk factors [PDF]
Background: Evidence on socioeconomic inequalities in coronary heart disease (CHD) and their pathways in the elderly is limited. Little is also known about the contributions that novel coronary risk factors (particularly inflammatory/hemostatic markers ...

Coronary heart disease is the most common cause of death in the general population and in patients with ESRD. The principles of cardiovascular risk assessment and management apply to both populations. Advances in noninvasive coronary artery imaging have improved early detection of subclinical disease. The goals of medical management of coronary disease
