High blood pressure (BP) is one of the most important risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is the leading cause of mortality. Approximately 54% of strokes and 47% of coronary heart diseases, worldwide, are attributable to high BP.Is...
Blood measurements of hs-CRP are often performed to assess the risk of future heart disease. It has also been suggested that hs-CRP can be used to target therapy and tailor risk modification to prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). Therefore it is important to understand when and why these me...
Heart disease is any disorder that affects the heart’s ability to function normally. The most common cause of heart disease is narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries which supply blood to the heart itself. Coronary Arteries Supply the Heart with Oxygen and Nutrients The heart does not ...

However, the TyG index has been reported superior to HOMA-IR index in predicting arteriosclerosis [30, 31] and CVD outcomes [32]. In addition, we had few patients with TLF and a relatively short period of follow-up. Therefore, the predictive ability of the TyG index for the risk of TLF...
“Our large study did not find evidence for a protective effect of vegetable intake on the occurrence of CVD (cardiovascular disease),” said Qi Feng, an epidemiologist at the University of Oxford, in a statement. While the study found eating raw veggies could protect against heart disease, co...
