    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are highly prevalent complex diseases that result from lifestyle and genetic factors. Gene-lifestyle interactions are also believed to contribute to the etiology of these diseases. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Psychological Resources and Risk Factors in Coronary Heart Disease : Assessment, Impact and the Influence of Mindfulness Training

    Författare :Oskar Lundgren; Margareta Kristenson; Peter Garvin; Gerhard Andersson; Lena Jonasson; J. David Creswell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : There is strong evidence for the observation that psychological risk factors, such as depressive symptoms, hopelessness, and anxiety are associated with higher risk of developing coronary heart disease (CHD), and also contribute to a worse prognosis among CHD patients. Much less is known about psychological resources, such as Mastery, and their role in cardiovascular medicine. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Life-course influences on occurrence and outcome for stroke and coronary heart disease

    Författare :Cecilia Bergh; Scott Montgomery; Katja Fall; Ylva Nilsagård; Peter Appelros; Meena Kumari; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiovascular disease; stroke; risk factors; adolescence; stress resilience; adult infections; life-course epidemiology; cohort study;

    Sammanfattning : Although typical clinical onset does not occur until adulthood, cardiovascular disease (CVD) may have a long natural history with accumulation of risks beginning in early life and continuing through childhood and into adolescence and adulthood. Therefore, it is important to adopt a life-course approach to explore accumulation of risks, as well as identifying age-defined windows of susceptibility, from early life to disease onset. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Lipid-related genes and their associations with coronary heart disease

    Författare :Ci Song; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a complex disease caused by the long-term progression of atherosclerosis. Lipids, including high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and triglycerides (TG) are well established biomarkers for CHD, and are used to predict individual 10-year risk for CHD both in the Framingham risk score and in the System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (SCORE) project.

  5. 25. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Epidemiological and Pan-airway Aspects

    Författare :Ulf Nihlén; allergologi och palliativ medicin Lungmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Respiratory system; spirometry; nasal polyposis; nasal symptoms; prevalence; incidence; coronary heart disease; alcohol; airways; COPD; FEV1; Andningsorganen;

    Sammanfattning : Background – Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, there is little information on the prevalence and particularly on the incidence of COPD. LÄS MER
