Plasma Metal Concentrations and Incident Coronary Heart Disease in Chinese Adults: The Dongfeng-Tongji Cohort
Conclusions: Our study suggested that incident CHD was positively associated with plasma levels of titanium and arsenic, and inversely associated with selenium. Additional research is needed to confirm these findings in other populations. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP1521 Received: 22 December 2016 Revised: 17 September 2017 Accepted: 19 September 2017 Published: 19 October 2017 Address correspondence to T.

Pathophysiologic role of ischemia reperfusion injury: a review
Publication date: Available online 19 June 2017 Source:Journal of Indian College of Cardiology Author(s): Vishal Kumar Vishwakarma, Prabhat Kumar Upadhyay, Jeetendra Kumar Gupta, Harlokesh Narayan Yadav Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality all over the world. World health organization (WHO) in 2002 assumed that IHD may be the major leading cause of death by 2020. An estimated 17 million people died from cardiovascular diseases (CVS) globally. Of these deaths, 7 million people died by ischemia heart disease and 6.2 million by stroke. Ischemia is defined as an insufficient supply of the...

Whole grain cereals for the primary or secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.
CONCLUSIONS: There is insufficient evidence from RCTs of an effect of whole grain diets on cardiovascular outcomes or on major CVD risk factors such as blood lipids and blood pressure. Trials were at unclear or high risk of bias with small sample sizes and relatively short-term interventions, and the overall quality of the evidence was low. There is a need for well-designed, adequately powered RCTs with longer durations assessing cardiovascular events as well as cardiovascular risk factors.

Impact of anemia on percutaneous coronary intervention in Chinese patients: A large single center data
ConclusionsPre ‐PCI anemia was not an independent risk factor of any adverse clinical events, while post‐PCI anemia had a predictable value of MI, TVR, and MACE after PCI.
