A growing body of research has identified circadian-rhythm disruption as a risk factor for metabolic health. These circadian mechanisms represent potential pathophysiological pathways linking circadian disruption to adverse metabolic health outcomes, including obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes.

More than heart disease or cancer, the risk of dementia often creates much greater anxiety in the patients I see. This means that controlling these risk factors in our favour should significantly reduce the future risk of dementia. I would like to focus on 5 of these factors. But can dementia be prevented?

That’s what the field of obesity therapeutics feels like right now. Share In addition to reductions in weight, multiple risk parameters, including blood pressure, waist circumference and lipids, also improve. The primary reason for managing risk factors is to reduce events, including heart attacks. N Engl J Med.

Yet, little is known about risk factors that predispose to persistent AF on initial presentation. Older age, male sex, postcollege education, and obesity were preferentially associated with persistent AF and represent a high-risk AF subset for population-based intervention.
