Oral magnesium supplementation improves endothelial function and attenuates subclinical atherosclerosis in thiazide-treated hypertensive women [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Epidemiological studies demonstrate an inverse association between serum magnesium and incidence of cardiovascular disease. Diuretics commonly cause hypomagneseamia. Method: We evaluated effects of magnesium supplementation on blood pressure

Increased Intima-Media Thickness After Early-Onset Preeclampsia

Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2006
Preeclampsia is associated with cardiovascular atherosclerotic events later in life. However, little is known about earlier subclinical signs of atherosclerosis. We aimed to investigate whether women who recently had preeclampsia show increased intima-media thickness (IMT), as marker of early atherosclerosis, compared with women with normal pregnancies

High cholesterol absorption efficiency interferes with bile acid metabolism and cholesterol elimination from the body

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Elevated low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol causes atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases. Variables of whole‐body cholesterol metabolism, for example, high cholesterol absorption efficiency, might also be atherogenic, whereas the role of bile acids is controversial.

CD36 and Its Role in Obesity

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obesity is understood as a condition driven by interactions between genetics and environmental factors. The role of CD36 in the regulation of lipid metabolism and ectopic fat accumulation emerges as a key area of interest. This review presents CD36 not only as a crucial facilitator of fatty acid uptake but also as a regulator of how and where ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity ...

The Intima Media Thickness

, 2000
La compromissione delle pareti vascolari in termini di arteriosclerosi può essere misurata in fase preclinica (asintomatica) con metodi diagnostici non-invasivi. L’ultrasonografia B-Mode delle arterie superficiali (carotidi e femorali), una delle tecniche d’elezione per affrontare questo tipo di problematica, fornisce informazioni eccellenti sulla ...
