| Anemia increases PE mortality risk Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Pulmonary embolism patients with low levels of hemoglobin have a greater risk of dying than their counterparts without anemia, research suggests. |
| Stroke etiology differs between men and women Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Researchers have observed significant differences in the causes of stroke among men and women, with women more likely to suffer cardioembolic stroke and men more likely to suffer lacunar stroke. |
| Metabolic syndrome link to prostate cancer ‘only in African Americans’ Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT The metabolic syndrome is associated with an increased risk for prostate cancer, but only in African–American men, say US scientists who call for further research, given the racial disparity in prostate cancer outcomes. |
| Combined MDM2/Ki-67 expression predicts prostate cancer outcome Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Combined expression of MDM2 and Ki-67 predicts distant metastasis and mortality in prostate cancer patients treated with radiotherapy and androgen deprivation therapy, US investigators have discovered. |

| Combined MDM2/Ki-67 expression predicts prostate cancer outcome Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Combined expression of MDM2 and Ki-67 predicts distant metastasis and mortality in prostate cancer patients treated with radiotherapy and androgen deprivation therapy, US investigators have discovered. |
| Adherence to statin therapy needs improving Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Results from a Canadian study indicate that adherence to statins in the general population is low, but that those with the highest levels of adherence have the greatest reduction in cerebrovascular disease incidence. |
| Abdominal subcutaneous fat does not increase cardiometabolic risk factors Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue is not associated with a linear increase in the prevalence of all cardiometabolic risk factors among the obese, a US study finds. |
| Metabolic syndrome does not modify CVD mortality risk in Type 2 diabetes Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Metabolic syndrome is not associated with higher cardiovascular disease mortality risk in men with diabetes, whereas diabetes substantially increases CVD mortality risk in men with the metabolic syndrome, report researchers in the journal Diabetes Care. |
| Diabetes risk high in children with persistent metabolic syndrome Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Children with persistent metabolic syndrome have accelerated fat gain, increased insulin response to oral glucose, and decreased insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function, all indicators of progressively greater risk for Type 2 diabetes, researchers show. |
| Impaired renal function linked to increased CVD death in women Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Study findings suggest there is no link between mild-to-moderate kidney impairment and increased risk for cardiovascular disease or mortality in women without existing major disease. |
| Elevated cTnT post-ICD discharge signals death risk Posted: 02 Jul 2009 05:00 PM PDT Cardic troponin T elevation after implanted defibrillator discharge predicts survival, US researchers have revealed. |
