Causal relevance of blood lipid fractions in the development of carotid atherosclerosis: Mendelian randomization analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), a subclinical measure of atherosclerosis, is associated with risk of coronary heart disease events. Statins reduce progression of CIMT and coronary heart disease risk in proportion to the reduction in ...

Correction of the Framingham Risk Score Data Reported in SPRINT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This report describes an error in the Framingham Risk Score data presented in the original SPRINT publication.1 The data, presented in Table 1 of the main SPRINT publication in the New England Journal of Medicine and made available to SPRINT Challenge participants, incorrectly calculated the level of baseline cardiovascular risk of the study ...

Metabolomic analysis reveals the molecular mechanism related to leg abnormality in broilers

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows the principal results of this study. Compared to the leg normal broilers, the serum calcium to phosphorus ratio was extremely decreased in the group with deformed leg bones. Additionally, a total of nine differential metabolites significantly associated with leg abnormalities and serum calcium and phosphorus levels were ...

Distribution, size, shape, growth potential and extent of abdominal aortic calcified deposits predict mortality in postmenopausal women

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2010
Background Aortic calcification is a major risk factor for death from cardiovascular disease. We investigated the relationship between mortality and the composite markers of number, size, morphology and distribution of calcified plaques in the lumbar ...

Ten‐Year Cardiovascular Disease Risk Score and Cognitive Function Among Older Adults: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011 to 2014

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background The Framingham 10‐year cardiovascular disease risk score, which is based on age, sex, smoking, total cholesterol, high‐density lipoprotein‐cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes, has been found to be associated with cognitive health, but ...

Calibration and discrimination of the Framingham Risk Score and the Pooled Cohort Equations. [PDF]

open access: yesCMAJ, 2020
Although accurate risk prediction is essential in guiding treatment decisions in primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, the accuracy of the Framingham Risk Score (recommended by a Canadian guideline) and the Pooled Cohort Equations (recommended by US guidelines) has not been assessed in a large contemporary Canadian population ...

A Novel Cardiac Computed Tomography‐Based Calcium Scoring System for Predicting the Use of Atherectomy Devices in Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is a well‐established process used to diagnose coronary artery disease; however, its specific advantages in predicting the use of atherectomy devices during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for moderate to severe calcified lesions remain to be determined.

Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies from the CHARGE consortium identifies common variants associated with carotid intima media thickness and plaque [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) and plaque determined by ultrasonography are established measures of subclinical atherosclerosis that each predicts future cardiovascular disease events.

Socio‐economic inequalities and heart failure morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and data synthesis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 927-941, April 2025.
Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between
