1991 and 1998 Framingham algorithms had only slightly different discriminatory power in our populations (c-statistics of 0.68 and 0.69, respectively in Belfast and France for the 1991 algorithm as compared to 0.66 and 0.68 for the 1998 one). This suggests in practice that the variability in the...

Literature Search and Flow Diagram: Screening for Cardiovascular Disease Risk With Resting or Exercise Electrocardiography View LargeDownload CHD indicates coronary heart disease; CVD, cardiovascular disease; ECG, electrocardiography; ICTRP, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform; KQ, key ...
In their article on routine electrocardiogram (ECG) screening and cardiovascular disease (CVD) events Yagi and colleagues report findings from a
The team which gives the report had projected a questionnaire for 8 cardiovascular groups of diagnosis (ischaemic heart disease, hypertension, functional, inflammatory and pulmonary heart disease, disturbances of the peripheral arterial blood supply, cerebrovascular insufficiency and venous diseases). This ...
(except for bowel using FIT) is undertaken at specialist screening units. However, screening for cardiovascular disease involving a blood draw for lipid levels is already performed in primary care. Taking blood samples for an MCED test in the primary care or community settings, or perhaps local ...
Purpose: This study was conducted to explore and understand Latino men's perceptions of health screening for risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The goal of the study was to discover community-based strategies to increase awareness of CVD and promote screening for risks of this disease in Lati...
Detection of appropriate receptor proteins and drug agents are equally important in the case of drug discovery and development for any disease. In this study, an attempt was made to explore colorectal cancer (CRC) causing molecular signatures as receptor
Depression is a common problem in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and is associated with increased mortality, excess disability, greater health care expenditures, and reduced quality of life. Depression is present in 1 of 5 patients with coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, ...
Accordingly, systematic screening of athletes for preventing SCD would be justified if: (1) cardiovascular diseases at risk are sufficiently common to warrant the screening efforts; (2) tests to distinguish athletes … 展开 关键词: MYOCARDIAL DISEASE ...
Early detection of disease, or screening, is an attractive diagnostic strategy for physicians. Screening for disease facilitates detection of disease early in its clinical course, before many pathologic changes have occurred and while the disease may be more amenable to treatment. As attractive as ear...
