Although the beneficial effects of exercise on both cardiovascular and general health are irrefutable, some evidence has emerged showing that excessive levels of exercise in the presence of an infection and particularly in myocarditis can be harmful 2, 4. Current recommendations state that after a ...
Compare to Individuals with factor XI activity >50%, factor XI deficiency was associated with decreased risk of the composite end point of major cardiovascular event (MI, stroke or TIA): For factor XI activity <=30% HR was 0.56 (95% CI, 0.34-0.9); For factor XI activity 30-50% HR ...
Over a period of 48 months, or until the occurrence of a major cardiovascular event or death from any cause, whichever occurred first, patients were meticulously observed. MACCEs, the primary outcome, consisted of four distinct categories: death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke,...

Obesity must be considered a real pathology. In the world wide, obesity represent one of the major public health issue associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Overweight or obesity, in fact, significantly increases the risk of contracting dise
Geneviève Derumeaux 1,2, Laurent A. Messonnier 10,11 & Pablo Bartolucci 5,6,11 This pilot study focusing on Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) patients offers a comprehensive and integrative evaluation of respiratory, cardiovascular, hemodynamic, and metabolic variables during exercise. ...
However, only a small proportion develops alcohol addiction. Individuals at risk often show a high sensation-seeking/low-anxiety behavioural phenotype. Here we asked which role EF hand domain containing 2 (EFhd2; Swiprosin-1) plays in the control of alcohol addiction-associated behaviours. EFhd2...
Interestingly the latter SNP leads to a conservative amino acid change (glutamic to aspartic acid at amino acid 37) which, may weaken FAD binding and affect the function of renalase. More recently, the same SNP has been associated with cardiovascular phenotypes such as cardiac hypertrophy, dysfunct...
This phosphorylation event triggers the transcription of genes that are involved in FA uptake and storage. The role of GSK-3α in cardiac lipid metabolism was further supported by microarray data that identified the upregulation of PPARα signaling genes in the heart of GSK-3α S21A KI mice....
One hundred and seventy patients admitted consecutively to the Department of Emergency at the Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, Tel Aviv, Israel, with a documented event of acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) between January 2003 and April 2005 were included in the study. Str...
