reported a correlation of systolic BP and HDL-C with LVM30, whereas there were no associations for hemoglobin A1c. With regard to the impact of physical activity, Joseph et al. showed the association between physical activity and LVM merely in the normotensive individuals6. In this present ...

CONCLUSIONS: High HDL in breast dysplasia women is reported in international studies too. High menopause prevalence in group 3, implying abdominal obesity and lipid disorders may explain the small difference between group 1 (breast cancer patients) and group 3 (control group). High clustering in ...
Although risk perception of natural hazards has been identified as an important determinant for sound policy design, there is limited empirical research on
The prevalence of HF in diabetic patients is 2.5–3 times higher than that of the general population [6]. Although diabetic patients have an increased risk of atherosclerosis which might lead to HF through coronary atherosclerosis, the high risk of HF cannot be fully explained by this association...
High Blood Cholesterol –Your risk for heart attack is lower if your LDL-cholesterol is less than 100 mg/dL and your non-HDL-cholesterol is less than 130 mg/dL. Physical Inactivity –Sitting for long periods of time increases your risk. Even moving around for 5-10 minute periods throughout...
Considering the potential risk of high levels of fibrosis biomarkers in fatty liver disease subjects, and the clinical significance of fibrosis markers in liver-related diseases, the association of AF with increased serum fibrosis indices in patients with NAFLD is of great interest. In this study, ...
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common chronic liver condition that affects a quarter of the global adult population. To date, only a few NAFLD risk prediction models have been developed for Chinese older adults aged ≥ 60 years. Thi
Obesity is the result of interactions between genes and environmental factors. Since monogenic etiology is only known in some obesity-related genes, a genetic risk score (GRS) could be useful to determine the genetic predisposition to obesity. Therefore,
We obtained clinical covariates taken closest to the baseline date for total and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, as well as height and weight (to calculate body mass index (BMI)). Prevalent diabetes was defined as having either an ICD-9 code of 250.xx or the use of diabetes ...
