February 1, 2024 — As cardiologists, heart disease patients and the organizations that serve them across the country embark on American Heart Month, DAIC has compiled a snapshot of significant cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke statistics, along with a review of the atherosclerosis drug market. million have diagnosed diabetes; and 9.7
Development and validation of a machine-learning approach to identify diabetic cardiomyopathy. Aims Abnormalities in specific echocardiographic parameters and cardiac biomarkers have been reported among individuals with diabetes. The high-risk DbCM phenotype was identified based on the incidence of HF on follow-up.
Background:Ischemic stroke can arise from various etiologies, such as cardioembolism, atherosclerosis, small vessel disease or cryptogenic. had diabetes mellitus, and 53.7% IL-2Rα levels were significantly elevated in patients with ischemic stroke due to large-artery atherosclerosis (53.5±4.7 had hyperlipidemia. p<0.01).Conclusions:Our
Practical, Future-Focused Education Cardiorenal and metabolic diseases, fueled by poor lifestyle choices and health conditions, lead to type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. The robust conference agenda begins with FDA updates and advancements in cardiorenal metabolic care.
Background Integration of large proteomics and genetic data in population-based studies can provide insights into discovery of novel biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for cardiometabolic diseases (CMD). There were 245 potentially causal protein biomarkers identified in MR pooled results, involving 23 pleiotropic proteins.
1,6 Until recently atherosclerosis has been thought of as the result of passive lipid accumulation in the vessel wall. However, the development of atherosclerosis is now known to be much more complex, with a key role for immune cells and inflammation in conjunction with hyperlipidemia and elevated LDL levels.7
Background:Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality and is closely related to diabetes mellitus (DM) and atherosclerosis. These findings suggest that VTRNA2-1 promoter methylation status could serve as a valuable biomarker for predicting prognosis and guiding treatment strategies in PAD.
Background:The association between left ventricular injury (LVI) detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and the risk of a subsequent ischemic stroke is unknown.Methods:We studied stroke-free participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis study who underwent a steady-state free precession CMR at Exam 5 (2010-2012).
Endothelial dysfunction (ED) has a substantial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and other vascular diseases. Multiple risk factors, including smoking, hyperlipiadaemia and diabetes, can have associated ED, which is correlated with cardiac events.
Keynote speaker and atherosclerosis expert Peter Libby, MD , captivated the audience with an update on his research into inflammation and atherosclerosis. He discussed therapeutic options not only for treating atherosclerosis but also for preventing cardiovascular disease.
The new model uses a set of 10 factors including age, cigarette smoking status, diabetes status, and blood levels of several cardiac biomarkers, to gauge the risk of a new cardiovascular event, regardless of whether the patient has had one before.
There was no increase in new onset diabetes mellitus or worsening of diabetes mellitus. Though this effect has also been documented with statin therapy, monotherapy using PCSK9 inhibitors or ezetimibe have not been associated with similar reduction in biomarkers of inflammation. Treatment discontinuation was similar to placebo.
They have the biomarker of risk but no evidence of the disease , even later in life when you would expect them to have it. When there is a history of early events, then the likelihood of a member of that family with an elevated Lp(a) having premature coronary atherosclerosis is high. Atherosclerosis. 2017 Jan;256:47-52.
In a linear regression model adjusted for age, sex, race, hypertension, diabetes, prior stroke, current smoking, current alcohol use, systolic blood pressure, and APOE genotype, lower eGFR was significantly associated with higher WMH ( = -0.008; 95% CI -0.013, -0.003; p < 0.001) (Figure 2). female, 22.1%
This study aimed to identify potential biomarkers for predicting stroke recurrence.Methods and ResultsWe conducted a nested case–control study using a hospital‐based cohort from the Third China National Stroke Registry selecting 214 age‐ and sex‐matched patients with ischemic stroke with hypertension and no history of diabetes or heart disease.
6 [link] Insufficient sleep has been linked to a greater risk for several health conditions including obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cognitive decline. The amount of calcium in the blood vessels (known as arterial calcification), a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis, is higher in people with a short sleep duration.
Attendees, including hundreds of health professionals, gained access to the latest knowledge and developments in the field, from exclusive insights from one of the foremost authorities on atherosclerosis, Dr. Peter Libby, to innovations like new therapeutic agents and exciting advancements in renal protection.
