Overall, 42% of patients at high coronary risk did not receive LLDs (statins, fibrates or ezetemibe). Only 8% of patients with comorbid coronary heart disease (CHD), diabetes mellitus and hypertension, and 19%-25% of patients with two comorbid diseases, did not receive LLDs. The ...

(HealthDay)—A high fasting triglyceride (TG) level combined with a low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level is associated with increased risks of incident coronary heart disease (CHD) and ischemic stroke, especially for patients with diabe
Exposure High-risk CHD, defined as cases requiring cardiac surgical management during infancy due to evolving signs of heart failure or types in which the postnatal circulation depends on patency of the arterial duct. Using 3-μL DBS samples, automated quantitative tests for NT-proBNP and interleuk...
Patients with CHD who also have elevated triglycerides have an increased risk for all-cause mortality, independent of HDL, according to researchers. Robert Klempfner, MD , of the Heart Center, Sheba Medical Center, Israel, and colleagu
and increased CHD risk, which is an interesting find on its own. Homocysteine is an amino acid involved in a critical metabolic pathway in the body known as the methionine-homocysteine cycle. This cycle is essential for various cellular functions, including DNA synthesis, repair, and methylation....
The logistic regression analysis showed that SBP2 (2mmHg per increase) had a significant odds ratio to identify not only subjects with a high risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) and general CV disease (CVDgen), but also subjects with a low risk for CHD and CVDgen, independent of the ...
SUGGESTED for you However, data about the prevalence of MAN among some at-risk minority groups, including East and South Asians, are lacking. Dr Gujral and colleagues therefore aimed to compare the prevalence of MAN among members of five racial/ethnic minority groups. ...
