Zebrafish models of cardiovascular disease
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The most significant risk factors associated with the development of heart diseases include genetic and environmental factors such as hypertension, high blood cholesterol levels, diabetes, smoking, and obesity.

Zebrafish Models of Cancer Therapy-Induced Cardiovascular Toxicity
Purpose of review: Both traditional and novel cancer therapies can cause cardiovascular toxicity in patients. In vivo models integrating both cardiovascular and cancer phenotypes allow for the study of on- and off-target mechanisms of toxicity arising ...

Experimental Rodent Models of Cardiovascular Diseases
Cardiovascular diseases, as the most common non-communicable disease in the world, cause a high mortality rate today and bring a serious medical burden to countries worldwide, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Experimental rodent models are

A method to construct a points system to predict cardiovascular disease considering repeated measures of risk factors [PDF]
Current predictive models for cardiovascular disease based on points systems use the baseline situation of the risk factors as independent variables. These models do not take into account the variability of the risk factors over time.

Cardiovascular Risk Prediction in Men and Women Aged Under 50 Years Using Routine Care Data
Background Prediction models for risk of cardiovascular events generally do not include young adults, and cardiovascular risk factors differ between women and men.

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