Triglyceride glucose index for predicting cardiovascular outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and acute coronary syndrome

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2020
Background The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, a simple surrogate estimate of insulin resistance, has been demonstrated to predict cardiovascular (CV) disease morbidity and mortality in the general population and many patient cohorts.

Influence of CYP2C19 genetic variants and smoking on dual antiplatelet efficacy in patients with coronary artery disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
IntroductionThis study aimed to investigate the effects of smoking and CYP2C19 gene polymorphism on antiplatelet therapy to specify the most optimized and accurate antiplatelet therapy for different populations.MethodsThis study included 6,353 patients ...

Pravastatin and Coronary Heart Disease [PDF]

Circulation, 1998
To the Editor: In the April 21, 1998, edition of Circulation , the WOSCOPS study group (West of Scotland Coronary Prevention Study) report that the benefit achieved by administration of pravastatin in WOSCOPS was essentially independent of the percentage by which LDL cholesterol was lowered by treatment and greater than that which could be attributed

Triglyceride-glucose index is associated with poor prognosis in acute coronary syndrome patients with prior coronary artery bypass grafting undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2023
Background The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, which is a reliable substitute indicator for insulin resistance, has been considered an independent risk factor for long-term outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Progression of Coronary Artery Calcium and Incident Heart Failure: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundAlthough the association between coronary artery calcium (CAC) and future heart failure (HF) has been shown previously, the value of CAC progression in the prediction of HF has not been investigated.

Alcohol and Coronary Heart Disease [PDF]

International Journal of Epidemiology, 1984
The data on two questions are reviewed: does heavy alcohol intake increase the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD)? And, is moderate intake protective? Identified alcoholics and problem drinkers have an increased risk of CHD, and in Britain there is a correlation among 22 towns, between the proportion of heavy drinkers in a town and CHD mortality.

Influence of the Triglyceride-Glucose Index on Adverse Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Events in Prediabetic Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
BackgroundCardiovascular disease and insulin resistance are closely related. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is frequently used as an indicator of insulin resistance. However, there is scant information on the TyG index in the prediabetic population,

Antioxidants and Coronary Heart Disease

Annals of Medicine, 1994
This review briefly summarizes the scientific evidence for a possible role of antioxidants in the prevention of coronary heart disease (CHD). Antioxidants in our diet include vitamins E, C, and beta-carotene, whereas selenium is an integral part of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx).

Coronary heart disease is a multifactorial disease [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 1999
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death in the Western World. For effective treatment and prevention strategies to be put in place, the major risk factors associated with this disease must be identified. Data show that almost 300 variables are statistically associated with CHD.
