Heart disease as a risk factor for dementia

open access: yesClinical Epidemiology, 2013
As life expectancy lengthens, dementia is becoming a significant human condition in terms of its prevalence and cost to society worldwide. It is important in that context to understand the preventable and treatable causes of dementia. This article exposes the link between dementia and heart disease in all its forms, including coronary artery disease ...

Coronary Heart Disease Risk Factors and Mortality

open access: yesJAMA, 2012
This study challenges conventional wisdom that patients with more coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factors have worse outcomes following their first MI. We found that patients with multiple CHD risk factors presented much earlier in life with MI and had lower hospital mortality than patients with fewer or no risk factors.

Resonance-thrombography indices of the haemostatic process in relation to risk of incident coronary heart disease: 9 years follow-up in the Caerphilly Prospective Heart Disease Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Global assays, such as resonance-thrombography (RTG), which measure the interaction between platelets, coagulation and fibrinolysis have been used as summary measures of risk for over two decades but have not been evaluated in epidemiological studies. We

Risk Factors in Ischemic Heart Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Public Health and the Nations Health, 1963
IT IS axiomatic in the control of disease that the first step is to identify those at high and those at low risk. The characteristics of these two groups often point to methods of preventing, palliating, or even curing the disease. Many biological characteristics-constitutional and environmental-have been implicated as risk factors in the development ...

C-reactive protein: associations with haematological variables, cardiovascular risk factors and prevalent cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
C-reactive protein (CRP) has been proposed as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, this association is confounded by mutual relationships with both classical and haematological cardiovascular risk factors. We, therefore, measured CRP with a

Are apolipoproteins A and B better than lipoproteins for assessing risk of obstructive coronary heart disease?

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 1999
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether apolipoproteins A-I (Apo A-I) and B (Apo B) have, higher ensitivity (SN), specificity (SP) and positive predictive value (PPV) than lipoproteins (LP), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density ...
