Strong Associations Between Current Periodontal Condition And Early Stroke
Background and Aims: To evaluate the association between current periodontal condition, past cardiovascular and early stroke events in a cohort of patients treated for chronic coronary artery disease from a university hospital in S ão Paulo, Brazil.

Left ventricular hypertrophy assessed by electrocardiogram is associated with more severe stroke and with higher in-hospital mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), assessed by electrocardiogram (ECG), is associated with increased risk for stroke. However, few studies that evaluated whether ECG-detected LVH predicts ischemic stroke severity and outcome. We aimed to evaluate these associations.

Screening for unknown hypercholesterolemia in a hospital population: A model for preventive medicine
Aim: The autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases and it ’s strongly related to cardiovascular disease (myocardial infarction, stroke).Genes classically associated with ADH are LDL receptor gene (Familial hypercholesterolemia or FH), Apo B gene (Familial Detective ApoB or FDB) and PCSK9 (FH3). The frequency of heterozygous FH is estimated to be approxim ately 1/200 - 1/500 in general population; so, this disease is one of the most common monogenic syndromes.
