Influence of accelerated arterial ageing in growth restricted cohorts on adult-onset cardiovascular diseases
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2023 May 19. doi: 10.1152/ajpheart.00134.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEpidemiologists have long documented higher risk of adult-onset cardiovascular diseases (CVD) such as stroke, hypertension and coronary artery disease) and mortality from circulatory causes in low birth weight cohorts (poor in utero substrate supply). Utero-placental insufficiency and in utero hypoxemic state induced alterations in arterial structure and compliance are important initiating factors for adult-onset hypertension. The mechanistic links between fetal growth restriction and CVD include decreased arterial...

A Potential Strategy for Atherosclerosis Prevention in Modernizing China - Hyperhomocysteinemia, MTHFR C677T Polymorphism and Air Pollution (PM2.5) on Atherogenesis in Chinese Adults
CONCLUSION: HC and PM2.5 pollution but not MTHFR genotype were both related to carotid IMT, independent of other traditional risk factors. This has potential implications in dietary and AP strategies for atherosclerosis prevention in China.PMID:36806868 | DOI:10.1007/s12603-023-1889-x

Nomogram and Carotid Risk Score for Predicting Moderate or High Carotid Atherosclerosis among Asymptomatic Elderly Recycling Volunteers
Diagnostics (Basel). 2022 Jun 6;12(6):1407. doi: 10.3390/diagnostics12061407.ABSTRACTCarotid atherosclerosis is associated with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. We explored an appropriate method for selecting participants without ischemic cerebrovascular disease but with various comorbidities eligible for a carotid ultrasound. This was a retrospective subgroup analysis of the carotid plaque burden from a previous study involving a vascular and cognitive survey of 956 elderly recycling volunteers (778 women and 178 men; mean age: 70.8 years). We used carotid ultrasound to detect the carotid plaque and computed the...

Modern Treatment of Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis —The Importance of Both Medical Therapy and Carotid Endarterectomy
Each year there are approximately 700 000 new ischemic strokes in the US, and 10% to 15% of them are caused by thromboembolism from a previously asymptomatic carotid stenosis (ACS). Three large randomized clinical trials, published in the 1990s and early 2000s, have demonstrated a significant benefit of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) i n preventing stroke in patients with severe ACS compared with medical therapy alone. They showed a 50% relative risk reduction in 5-year stroke rate and an approximately 1% per year absolute stroke risk reduction. Over the course of the past 2 decades, there has been significant improvement...

Effect of Intake Duration of Anthocyanin-Rich New Zealand Blackcurrant Extract on Cardiovascular Responses and Femoral Artery Diameter during Sustained Submaximal Isometric Contraction
J Diet Suppl. 2021 Jul 11:1-13. doi: 10.1080/19390211.2021.1948943. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeven-day intake of anthocyanins from New Zealand blackcurrant (NZBC) extract increased cardiac output and femoral artery diameter during a sustained submaximal isometric contraction. It is not known if there are intake duration effects by NZBC extract on the isometric contraction-induced cardiovascular responses. In a repeated measures design, male participants (n = 19, age: 26 ± 4 years) performed a 120-second submaximal (30%) isometric contraction of the knee extensors at baseline and following 1, 4 and 7-days intake of 60...
