Socioeconomic position and coronary heart disease in older age: associations and possible pathways [PDF]

, 2009
Low socioeconomic position is known to be associated with greater coronary heart disease (CHD) risk in most developed countries. However, studies have largely focused on the association between socioeconomic position and CHD in middle-aged populations

Comparison of triglyceride-glucose related indices in prediction of cardiometabolic disease incidence among US midlife women

Scientific Reports
The effects of triglyceride-glucose (TyG) related indices on cardiometabolic disease (CMD) are still unclear. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between the TyG-related indices and CMD risk among midlife women.

Association between the atherogenic index of plasma and coronary collateral circulation in patients with chronic total occlusion

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is considered an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). The present study investigated whether AIP correlates with the formation of coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in CAD patients

Socioeconomic inequalities in coronary heart disease risk in older age: contribution of established and novel coronary risk factors [PDF]

, 2009
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 ...

Homocysteine and Coronary Heart Disease

Seminars in Vascular Medicine, 2002
Children with homocystinuria have markedly elevated plasma homocysteine concentrations and increased risks of stroke and coronary heart disease (CHD). Supplementation with folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 lower homocysteine levels and such therapy is remarkably effective in delaying the occurrence of vascular events in affected individuals.
