| Too high, too low sodium increases risk for adverse CV outcomes Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST There is a J-shaped relationship between urinary excretion of sodium and risk for cardiovascular events, researchers say. |
| Management of ACS in developing countries ‘must be improved’ Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST The interventional management of acute coronary syndromes in developing countries must be improved, says a team of French researchers. |
| Birthweight, weight during infancy linked to diabetes risk Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Birth weight and weight gain after 48 months of age are associated with risk for diabetes during adulthood, suggests a study of birth cohorts in low- and middle-income countries. |
| Obesity risk factors become more ‘potent’ with increasing adiposity Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Study findings suggest that some risk factors for obesity are weight dependent, which, the researchers say, may partly explain recent increases in obesity in Western society. |
| HDL function ‘best measure for cardiovascular risk assessment in obese women’ Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Functional measures of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol may be better markers for cardiovascular risk in obese women than levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol per se, research suggests. |
| Oropharyngeal cancer mortality declines in USA Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Mortality from cancer of the mouth and pharynx has declined significantly in the USA in the last two decades, study findings show. |
| Bipolar disorder not linked to increased age-related declines in cognition Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Results from a Swiss study of elderly patients with bipolar disorder suggest that they do not have greater age-related declines in cognition compared with their mentally healthy counterparts. |
| Review supports infection link to schizophrenia Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Results from a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies support an association between certain infections and schizophrenia. |
| CHA<sub>2</sub>DS<sub>2</sub>-VASc refines stroke risk in ‘low-risk’ AF patients after ablation Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Stroke risk scores, particularly the CHA2DS2-VASc score, can help to determine which patients remain at high risk for thromboembolic events after undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation, research suggests. |
| Incidence of silent abdominal DVT ‘not negligible’ Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Nearly 2% of patients undergoing abdominal computed tomography scan have clinically silent abdominal deep vein thrombosis, Italian researchers report. |
| Depression increases mortality risk in patients with diabetic foot ulcers Posted: 22 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Depression is a persistent risk factor for mortality in people with their first diabetic foot ulcer, study findings show. |
| Serum chemokine CXCL5 a marker for subclinical atherosclerosis in diabetes Posted: 22 Nov 2011 04:00 PM PST Serum chemokine CXC ligand 5 is associated with carotid artery intima-media thickness in patients with Type 2 diabetes, researchers report. |
