1. 31. Oral health and cardiovascular disease

   Författare :Anders Holmlund; Lars Lind; Ulf. H Lerner; Anders Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Medicine; Oral health; periodontal disease; number of teeth; cardiovascular disease; mortality; Medicin;

   Sammanfattning : In the past two decades studies have indicated that oral health might be associated with the prevalence for cardiovascular disease (CVD), although the biological link still remains unknown. Bacteria and inflammatory mediators causing periodontal disease have also been suggested to influence the progression of atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

3. 32. Determinants of social inequalities in cardiovascular disease among Iranian patients

   Författare :Seyed Abbasi; Gloria Macassa; Joaquim Soares; Örjan Sundin; Ramune Kalediene; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Iran; Social inequalities; Cardiovascular disease; Coronary artery disease; Acute coronary syndrome; Socioeconomic status; In-hospital mortality; Urban rural residence;

   Sammanfattning : Background and objectives: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the single largest cause of mortality in the world. Similar to other health issues, CVD is generally affected either by individual risk factors, which may influence the risk for developing an illness or its complications, or by social indicators (social determinants of health).

4. 33. Hemostasis in middle-aged women with coronary heart disease

   Författare :Margita Eriksson-Berg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Women; coagulation; fibrinolysis; coronary heart disease; genetics; exercise test.;

   Sammanfattning : Inflammation and hemostasis play important roles in atherosclerotic disease. Chronic low-grade inflammation contributes to plaque vulnerability and rupture, and the subsequent thrombus formation is identified as the key mechanism in the pathogenesis of the acute coronary syndromes.

5. 34. Proinsulin and Insulin Sensitivity as Predictors of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Heart Disease : Clinical Epidemiological Studies with up to 27 Years of Follow-Up

   Författare :Björn Zethelius; Björn Fagerberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicine; diabetes; coronary heart disease; insulin; proinsulin; prognosis; mortality; Medicin; Dermatology and venerology; clinical genetics; internal medicine; Dermatologi och venerologi; klinisk genetik; invärtesmedicin; Geriatrics; geriatrik;

   Sammanfattning : Defects in insulin secretion and insulin action are the major abnormalities in the development of Type 2 diabetes. Hyperinsulinemia is a risk marker for Type 2 diabetes and according to some, but not in all studies also for coronary heart disease (CHD). Conventional insulin assays measure immunoreactive insulin including proinsulin-like molecules. LÄS MER

7. 35. Serum lipoprotein(a) in relation to ischemic heart disease and associated risk factors

   Författare :Lisbeth Slunga; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lipoprotein a ; lipids; epidemiology; coronary artery disease; coronary angiography; HLA DR; acute-phase protein; myocardial infarction; HMG CoA reductase inhibitor; simvastatin;

   Sammanfattning : Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) consists of an LDL-like particle and the specific protein apo(a), which is very similar to plasminogen. Apo(a) contains repeated kringle structures and a serine protease domain, which cannot be activated by t-PA. Lp(a) is considered to be a predictor for atherosclerotic disease. LÄS MER
