Artificial Intelligence Applications to Improve Risk Prediction Tools in ElectrophysiologyCurrent Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 14 - Trang 1-9 - 2020
Gurukripa N. Kowlgi, Fatima M. Ezzeddine, Suraj Kapa
Artificial intelligence (AI) is an aspect of computer technology that imitates the ability of the human mind to analyze data. Over the last few years, there has been a paradigm shift in the utilization of AI in clinical practice. It is imperative for the clinical electrophysiologist to understand the basics of AI, and its potential applications in the field as new applications are developed and im...... hiện toàn bộ
The role of Complex Lipids in Attaining Metabolic HealthCurrent Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 8 - Trang 1-8 - 2014
Ricardo Rueda
Milk fat includes a series of complex lipids such as phospholipids, gangliosides and cholesterol, among others that are organized into a trilaminar structure known as milk fat globule membrane (MFGM). Several studies have shown that the increased consumption of milk and dairy products is associated with a reduced incidence of obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and type-2 diabetes, which are...... hiện toàn bộ
Cardiovascular Health Awareness and Promotion in Women: AHA’s Life’s Simple 7™ and Go Red for Women™Current Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 11 - Trang 1-8 - 2017
Amber R. Cordola Hsu, Nathan D. Wong
This review will discuss the incidence of and trends in cardiovascular disease (CVD), including coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and associated risk factors among women by ethnic groups, and the recent AHA efforts to increase awareness among women. CVD mortality among women in the USA accounts for approximately half (49.7%) of total CVD deaths. CHD, as the predominant form of CVD, is the lead...... hiện toàn bộ
Childhood Psychosocial Determinants of Cardiovascular HealthCurrent Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 10 - Trang 1-8 - 2016
Erica Sood, Samuel S. Gidding
Understanding risk and protective factors that impact cardiovascular health is of utmost importance. There is ample evidence that cardiovascular health begins in childhood, tracks over time, and is subject to adverse social influences. This paper reviews key studies examining the relations of psychosocial factors in childhood to cardiovascular health in adulthood. The existing literature provides ...... hiện toàn bộ
U-shaped Relationship of Blood Pressure to CVD Risk and Relevance to Treatment Goals in DiabetesCurrent Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 8 - Trang 1-6 - 2014
Peter M. Nilsson
A heated debate has developed on the blood pressure goal for treatment of hypertension in patients with type 2 diabetes. The evidence for going below 130 mmHg systolic blood pressure has been found to be weak and that is why new guidelines have advocated a somewhat more conservative view, aiming for a blood pressure goal <140/85 mmHg in European guidelines and <140/80 mmHg in American guidelines f...... hiện toàn bộ
Women’s Health Initiative Hormone Therapy Trials: New Insights on Cardiovascular Disease from Additional Years of Follow upCurrent Cardiovascular Risk Reports - Tập 7 - Trang 196-202 - 2013
Virginia M. Miller, JoAnn E. Manson
Debate and controversy surrounding the benefits and risks of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) for prevention of cardiovascular disease has continued in the decade since the cessation of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) hormone therapy interventions. As a result, many women and their physicians have been reluctant to turn to MHT for relief of vasomotor and other menopausal symptoms. However, sev...... hiện toàn bộ
