Accuracy of cardiovascular risk estimation for primary prevention in patients without diabetes

Wierzbicki, Anthony S.

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

This study suggests biological variation in cardiovascular risk factors has profound consequences on calculated risk for therapeutic decision-making. Current guidelines recommending multiple measurements are usually ignored. Triplicate measurement is required to allow risk to be identified and...

Accuracy of Cardiovascular Risk Estimation for Primary Prevention in Patients Without Diabetes

Reynolds, Timothy M.; Twomey, Patrick; Wierzbicki, Anthony S.

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

doi:10.1177/174182670200900402 pmid:12394326

Background The burden of atherosclerosis has led to treatment prioritization on high-risk individuals without established cardiovascular disease based on risk estimates. We investigated the effects of biological variation in risk factors on risk estimate accuracy and whether current primary...

Airborne Occupational Exposure, ABO Phenotype and Risk of Ischaemic Heart Disease in the Copenhagen Male Study

Suadicani, P.; Hein, H.O; Gyntelberg, F.

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

doi:10.1177/174182670200900403 pmid:12394327

Objectives To test the hypothesis that long-term occupational exposure to airborne pollutants is a stronger risk factor for ischaemic heart disease (IHD) in men with blood type O than in men with other ABO phenotypes.Design Cross-sectional and prospective study taking into account potential...

Airborne occupational exposure, ABO phenotype and risk of ischaemic heart disease in the Copenhagen Male Study

Gyntelberg, F.

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

The finding of a quite strong interplay between airborne pollutants, ABO phenotypes, and risk of IHD, may open up new possibilities for clarifying the roles of the ABO blood group and air pollution as cardiovascular risk factors.

Distribution of Risk Factors and Prophylactic Drug Usage in Turkish Patients with Angiographically Established Coronary Artery Disease

Sonmez, Kenan; Akcay, Ahmet; Akcakoyun, Mustafa; Demir, Durmus; Elonu, Oman Hakan; Pala, Selcuk; Duran, Nilüfer Eksi; Gencbay, Murat; Degertekin, Muzaffer; Turan, Fikret

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

doi:10.1177/174182670200900404 pmid:12394328

Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of adult deaths in our country. In clinical practice, an adequate level of secondary prevention towards CAD primarily requires full recognition of the distribution of risk factors. The aim of our study was to determine the prevalence...

Distribution of risk factors and prophylactic drug usage in Turkish patients with angiographically established coronary artery disease

Turan, Fikret

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

Upon comparison of the risk factors, prevalence of obesity and DM was found to be similar to the average of nine European countries among our subjects. Smoking was found to be considerably higher, whereas HT, hyperlipidaemia and family history of premature CAD were lower than the European average...

Prevalence of Modifiable Cardiovascular Risk Factors Remain High after Coronary Bypass Graft Surgery: A Multicentre Study Among Turkish Patients

Baltalı, Mehmet; Kızıltan, Hidayet Tarık; Korkmaz, Mehmet Emin; Topçu, Semra; Demirtaş, Mustafa; Metin, Mehmet; Topçuoğlu, M ŞLah; Birand, Ahmet; Müderrisoğlu, Haldun

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

doi:10.1177/174182670200900405

Background The measures of secondary prevention in patients undergoing coronary bypass graft surgery (CABG) remains largely undetermined in Turkey.Design We designed a multicentre cross-sectional study to estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients after CABG and to...

Prevalence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors remain high after coronary bypass graft surgery&colon; a multicentre study among Turkish patients

Mü derriso&gbreve; lu, Haldun

2002 Journal of Cardiovascular Risk

Turkish patients have a high prevalence of modifiable risk factors related to unhealthy lifestyle and ineffective prophylactic drug use 1 year or more after CABG. Low educational level has a significant influence in this situation.
