Association of a genetic variant in the AKT gene locus and cardiovascular risk factors.
Authors: Kermanshahi F, Ghazizadeh H, Hussein NA, Amerizadeh F, Samadi S, Tayefi M, Kamel Khodabandeh A, Moohebati M, Ebrahimi M, Esmaily H, Sahebi R, Abdulkarimi R, Mousavi SAR, Ferns GA, Avan A, Ghayour-Mobarhan M Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVDs) is the leading cause of morbidity and death worldwide. Most genetic variants could be identified by several genome-wide-association-studies (GWAS), including within genes encoding proteins involved in the AKT/PI3K pathways that are related with an increased risk of metabolic syndrome and CVDs. Therefore, due to the importance of genetic variants in the prognosis of...

Prevalence and Incidence of Metabolic Syndrome in Iran: A Systematic Review and Meta ‑Analysis
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a predictor of several diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, dyslipidemia, stroke, osteoarthritis, certain cancers, and death leading to public health concern in most societies. We aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence and incidence of MetS in Iranian population through a meta ‑analysis study. We included cross‑sectional and cohort studies to estimate the overall prevalence and incidence rates of MetS in Iran National databases  including MagIran, Science Information Database, IranMedex, and international databases including Medline, Web of Sciences, and Scopus were searche...
