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]

Long-Term Coffee Consumption and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease: A Systematic Review and a Dose-Response Meta-Analysis of Prospective Cohort Studies.
CONCLUSIONS: A non-linear association between coffee consumption with CVD risk was observed in this meta-analysis. Moderate coffee consumption was inversely significantly associated with CVD risk, with the lowest CVD risk at 3 to 5 cups/d, and heavy coffee consumption was not associated with elevated CVD risk.

Blood Pressure Management in the 21st Century: Maximizing Gains and Minimizing Waste.
Abstract The development of effective pharmacological strategies for lowering blood pressure was one of medical science's major success stories of the 20(th) century. Blood pressure was proven beyond doubt to be causally and continuously related to future risk of cardiovascular events,(1) and lowering blood pressure was proven to reduce that risk.(2-4) Pooled data from randomized trials collectively showed that lowering systolic blood pressure by 10 mmHg reduced coronary heart disease risk by about a quarter and risk of stroke by about a third, irrespective of prior disease history, initial blood pressure level, o...
