NHLBI Obesity, Nutrition, and Physical Activity Seminar: The Relationship between Body Weight, Adiposity, and Cardiovascular Risk among South Asian Americans
In this one-hour webinar, Dr. Namratha Kandula, MD, MPH, will present an overview of “ The Relationship between Body Weight, Adiposity, and Cardiovascular Risk among South Asian Americans. ” Body weight is closely related to several known cardiovascular risk factors, but the relationship between body weight and cardiovascular risk varies by race and ethnicity. In this presentation, Dr. Kandula will focus on South Asian Americans, a population that has a high burden of cardiovascular risk, even at a lower body weight. She will describe the prevalence of metabolic abnormalities and subclinical cardiovascular disease in S...

Cardiovascular Disease Disparities in Rural America: Can this House of Cards be Saved?
Debra Moser holds a Master of Nursing and Doctor of Nursing Science from the University of California at Los Angeles. She came to UK from The Ohio State University College of Nursing, Department of Adult Health and Illness Nursing. Since 1997, she has served as co-editor of the Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing. Dr. Moser's distinguished career began with 12 years of critical care nursing. This was just the beginning of a steady, productive journey toward her current program of research: working with and studying patients with coronary heart disease. As the College's Linda C. Gill Chair in Nursing and co-director of the RI...

Trade-off Resiliencies, Competing Disease Risks, and Ageotypes Virtual Workshop (Day 2)
Age is the primary risk factor for most major medical conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVD), cancer, diabetes, and neurodegenerative diseases. Aging, disease development, respectively resilience, are thus interconnected, but the molecular pathways and cellular mechanisms involved are not well understood. Deep multi-omics profiling appears to distinguish four molecular patterns of aging in individuals, “ ageotypes, ” that may be connected to competing risk of age-associated diseases. Recent research indicates that development of CVD or cancer are perhaps due to trade-offs between certain genes and processes,...
