Southern Dietary Pattern is Associated with Hazard of Acute Coronary Heart Disease in the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Study.
CONCLUSIONS: -A dietary pattern characteristic of the southern US was associated with greater hazard of CHD in this sample of white and black adults in diverse regions of the US. PMID: 26260732 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Utility of Non-Traditional Risk Markers in Individuals Ineligible for Statin Therapy According to the 2013 ACC/AHA Cholesterol Guidelines.
CONCLUSIONS: -In this generally low-risk population sample, a large proportion of ASCVD events occurred among adults with a 10-yr. cPCE risk <7.5%. We found that the CAC, hsCRP, FH and ABI recommendations by the ACC/AHA cholesterol guidelines (Class IIB) identify small subgroups of asymptomatic population with <7.5% 10 yr. cPCE but with observed ASCVD event rates higher than 7.5% who may warrant statin therapy considerations.

Non-Traditional Markers of Cardiovascular Disease Risk Can Improve the 2013 ACC/AHA Prevention Guidelines: Insights From the MESA Investigation.
Abstract The ability to accurately identify individuals at increased risk for a cardiovascular (CV) event is critical to efficient heart disease and stroke prevention. Since the publication of the results of the LRC-CPPT in 1984 attempts to establish guidelines useful in the identification of patients who would receive the most primary cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention benefit from blood cholesterol reduction, has been debated(1). Recently the debate has expanded to suggest that reduction of the atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) risk threshold from the ACC/AHA 2013 suggested 7.5% to a lower 3.0%, would reduce CVD ...

A Cluster-Randomized Controlled Trial of a Simplified Multifaceted Management Program for Individuals at High Cardiovascular Risk (SimCard Trial) in Rural Tibet, China, and Haryana, India.
CONCLUSIONS: -The results indicate that the simplified cardiovascular management program improved quality of primary care and clinical outcomes in resource-poor settings in China and India. Larger trials in more places are needed to ascertain potential impacts on mortality and morbidity outcomes. Clinical Trial Registration Information-clinicaltrials.gov. Identifier: NCT01503814.

Apixaban Compared with Warfarin in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Valvular Heart Disease: Findings From the ARISTOTLE Trial.
CONCLUSIONS: -More than a quarter of the patients in ARISTOTLE with "nonvalvular" atrial fibrillation had moderate or severe valvular heart disease. There was no evidence of a differential effect of apixaban over warfarin in reducing stroke or systemic embolism, causing less bleeding, and reducing death in patients with and without valvular heart disease.

Young Women With Acute Myocardial Infarction and the Post-Hospital Syndrome.
Abstract Our awareness and understanding of ischemic heart disease (IHD) in women has evolved substantially over the past two to three decades. The myth that heart attacks are "male diseases" was clearly dispelled and we know now that cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including heart disease and stroke, are common and represent the number one killer of women in the United States and worldwide.(1,2) In the Framingham Heart Study it was estimated that among women free of CVD at 50 years of age lifetime risk for developing CVD was 39.2%.(3) We have learned that clinically manifest IHD usually develops a decade later in ...

Community Pharmacy and Blood Pressure Control.
Abstract Widespread, effective identification and management of uncontrolled hypertension remains elusive, undermining our ability to reduce the impact of stroke and heart disease. The statistics are widely appreciated: roughly 30% of North Americans have hypertension and almost half are uncontrolled. Nearly 1,000 people a day die from complications attributed to hypertension, and direct and indirect costs amount to $46 billion a year in the United States alone.(1) Effective management of blood pressure for the 70 million adults in the US who currently have hypertension would clearly overwhelm our existing primary...

Fructosamine and Glycated Albumin and the Risk of Cardiovascular Outcomes and Death.
CONCLUSIONS: -The acceptance of new measures of hyperglycemia is partly dependent on establishing their association with long-term outcomes. We found that fructosamine and glycated albumin were associated with vascular outcomes and mortality and that these associations were similar to those observed for HbA1c.

Does Myocardial Infarction Beget Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Fibrillation Beget Myocardial Infarction?
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects millions of people worldwide.(1) It is already known several decades that AF is not a benign condition, and it's associated with a 5-fold increased risk of stroke, 3-fold increased risk of heart failure, and doubling of risk of dementia and death.(2-4) Myocardial infarction, and coronary heart disease, are traditional risk factors of AF,(5) however, whether myocardial infarction is a consequence of AF, has not been studied in great detail yet. The focus of current treatment for AF is pointed towards prevention of stroke. This is of utmost importance; however the other card...

Frequent Physical Activity May not Reduce Vascular Disease Risk as Much as Moderate Activity: Large Prospective Study of UK Women.
CONCLUSIONS: -Moderate physical activity is associated with a lower risk of CHD, VTE and cerebrovascular disease than inactivity. However, among active women there is little to suggest progressive reductions in risk of vascular diseases with increasing frequency of activity. PMID: 25688148 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Age at Menarche and Risks of Coronary Heart and Other Vascular Diseases in a Large UK Cohort.
CONCLUSIONS: -In this cohort, the relation of age at menarche to vascular disease risk was U-shaped, with both early and late menarche being associated with increased risk. Associations were weaker for cerebrovascular and hypertensive disease than for CHD. PMID: 25512444 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Assessing Neighborhood-Level Effects on Disparities in Cardiovascular Diseases.
Abstract Despite declines in mortality from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and many CVD risk factors, CVD remains the leading cause of death in the US and racial and ethnic disparities persist. In 2010, rates of CVD mortality per 100,000 were: 192.2 for White women; 260.5 for Black women; 278.4 for White men; and 369.2 for Black men(1). In 2009-2010, metrics of ideal cardiovascular health factors (i.e., blood pressure, physical activity, healthy diet, healthy weight, smoking status, and glucose) were noted to be lower for Blacks and Mexican Americans than for Whites or other racial groups(1). In 2012, the following...

Chronic Inflammatory Disorders and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Coronary Heart Disease, and Stroke: A Population-Based Cohort Study.
CONCLUSIONS: -The risk of cardiovascular diseases and T2DM is increased across a range of organ-specific and multi-system chronic inflammatory disorders with evidence that risk is associated with severity of inflammation. Clinical management of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders should aim to reduce cardiovascular risk. PMID: 24970784 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
