The association of ideal cardiovascular health and its change with subclinical atherosclerosis according to glucose status: A prospective cohort study

Journal of Diabetes
Background An updated definition was developed to better evaluate cardiovascular health (CVH). We aimed to investigate whether optimal or improvement of six CVH metrics defined by new Life's Essential 8 (LE8) may counteract the risk of subclinical ...

Association of Epicardial Adipose Tissue with Coronary Atherosclerosis Is Region-Specific and Independent of Conventional Risk Factors and Intra- Abdominal Adiposity

, 2011
Objective: To elucidate which measurement of epicardial adipose tissue ( EAT) best reflects its atherogenic risk, we examined the associations between different EAT measurements and various atherosclerotic parameters of the entire coronary tree and ...

Macrophage autophagy in atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2013
Macrophages play crucial roles in atherosclerotic immune responses. Recent investigation into macrophage autophagy (AP) in atherosclerosis has demonstrated a novel pathway through which these cells contribute to vascular inflammation.

Chronic alanine aminotransferase elevation in people with HIV: Time trends over 22 years and genetic predisposition

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Chronic elevation of alanine aminotransferase (cALT) is common in people with HIV. Published reports on cALT prevalence time trends have not been uniform. It is unknown whether genetic background is associated with cALT in people with HIV. Methods cALT was defined as ALT levels (male, >50 U/L, female, >35 U/L) at ≥2 consecutive, 6‐

Characterization of intravascular cellular activation in relationship to subclinical atherosclerosis in postmenopausal women.

PLoS ONE, 2017
ObjectiveMechanisms and interactions among intravascular cells contributing to development of subclinical atherosclerosis are poorly understood. In women, both menopausal status and pregnancy history influence progression of atherosclerosis.

Cardiac structure and function in psoriasis: A cross‐sectional analysis of the PSOCADIA study

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Individuals with well‐treated psoriasis exhibited a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction (GLS < 16%) compared with controls, independent of cardiometabolic comorbidity. The prevalence was similar across psoriasis severity, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular assessment in all patients with psoriasis. Abstract Background Psoriasis is linked
