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.

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.

Low triiodothyronine syndrome and selenium deficiency - undervalued players in advanced heart failure? A single center pilot study

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background The function of deiodinases – selenoproteins converting thyroid hormones may be disturbed by oxidative stress accompanying heart failure. Selenium (Se) may be used by glutathione peroxidase, leading to a lack of deiodinase and triiodothyronine

Infection and coronary heart disease [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1997
A large body of evidence exists that implicates a number of microbial agents in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease (CHD). This, if proven, may have far-reaching implications for the prevention and treatment of CHD and other atherosclerotic disease.
