Risk factors for gastroschisis
Teratology, 1990AbstractThe prevalence at birth of gastroschisis, a rare abnormality of the abdominal wall, appears to have increased over the past decade. To characterize risk factors that might explain this increase, birth certificates for Washington State residents were compared for 62 infants born with gastroschisis during the years 1984 to 1987 and 617 randomly ...

Risk factors for TIA and TIA as a risk factor for stroke
Neurology, 2004TIA is a well-recognized risk factor for stroke and is associated with some of the same vascular risk factors as ischemic stroke. Few studies have enumerated the risk factors for TIA compared to the number of studies that have been done on outcomes after TIA.

Risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) can be divided into three groups: fixed (nonmodifiable), major modifiable, and other factors. Rather than showing evidence of a step function, the relationship between cardiovascular risk and each of the major modifiable factors - smoking, blood pressure, blood lipids, and limited physical ...

Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1989
HBC is common, accounting for approximately 9% of the total breast cancer burden. Given 142,000 cases of breast cancer expected to occur in 1989, this would represent 12,780 cases of HBC patients. Soberingly, each patient represents a family with a variable number of inordinately high risk patients.

Risk Factors: The Risk Calculator
2009Eye care providers can use calculators for determining the risk of developing glaucoma from ocular hypertension. Approximately 8% of adults over the age of 40 in the United States have ocular hypertension [1]. While ocular hypertension is a common finding, eye care providers do not know which patients to treat or which patients to monitor without ...

Epidemiology of cardiovascular risk factors: Behavioural risk factors
Archives of Cardiovascular DiseasesCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have a multifactorial origin. Among the risk factors, so-called behavioural risk factors play a major role in the onset of these diseases: smoking, unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity and sedentary lifestyle, alcohol, sleep disorders, depression and illicit drug use are among the main behavioural risk factors for ...

Risk Analysis, 2000
Risk perception is a phenomenon in search of an explanation. Several approaches are discussed in this paper. Technical risk estimates are sometimes a potent factor in accounting for perceived risk, but in many important applications it is not. Heuristics and biases, mainly availability, account for only a minor portion of risk perception, and media ...

This chapter delves into the relevance of risk as a factor influencing parole decision-makers when deliberating on the release of life sentence prisoners. In addition to addressing the theoretical foundations of risk, the chapter examines legal and policy developments reflective of a risk-based approach and how risk technologies are employed in ...

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1989
Hypertension increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality two- to fourfold. The chief hazards are now atherosclerosis and coronary disease. Risk is proportional to the degree of systolic or diastolic blood pressure elevation at any age, in either sex.

Risk Factors for Atherosclerosis
1978Nearly three decades of intensive epidemiological investigation have identified a group of characteristics that predict an individual’s probability of developing clinically manifest disease due to atherosclerosis -- myocardial infarction, sudden death, angina pectoris, stroke, or peripheral vascular disease.
