Abstract 185: The Sex Gap among Cardiovascular Disease Encounters in India Session Title: Poster Session I
Conclusion: Untreated or poorly managed AF and CAD can lead to myocardial infarction, stroke and death. A greater awareness of gender differences in AF and CAD, and the impact of factors that are unique to each gender, would contribute to more effective management and better long-term outcomes.Though genetic differences may contribute to greater cardiovascular disease prevalence in men, PINNACLE India’s sizable difference in male and female representation could be indicative of cultural or economic issues limiting access to specialty care for females. Implementing dedicated efforts to understand and reduce gaps in ac...

Prevalence, components and associated demographic and lifestyle factors of the metabolic syndrome in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background: Adults with the metabolic syndrome (MetS) are twice as likely to die from and three times as likely to have a heart attack or stroke compared with people without the syndrome. About 70-80% of type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM) patients are diagnosed with the MetS. Investigating the occurrence of the MetS in type 2 DM patients is critical for cardiovascular disease prevention. We evaluated the prevalence and components of the MetS and its associated clinical and demographic factors in a Ghanaian adult population with DM 2. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 200 previously diagnosed type 2 ...

Prevalence, components and associated demographic and lifestyle factors of the metabolic syndrome in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
CONCLUSION: A comparatively low prevalence of the MetS was found. More females than males had the MetS. Uncontrolled diabetes and abdominal obesity were prevalent. The factors identified by our univariate logistic regression model were not significant predictors of the MetS in our multivariate model. PMID: 25054102 [PubMed]

Beneficial effects of on glycemia and homocysteine levels in postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) in postmenopausal women is an important risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity, especially stroke and coronary heart disease and mortality. Preventing and treating MetS would be useful in preventing disability and promoting normal aging. Previous human studies have found some beneficial effects of Lactobacillus species on some isolated parameters of MetS. Nevertheless, we are not aware, to date, of any study which has verified the influence of probiotics in patients with MetS.

Sudachitin, a polymethoxylated flavone, improves glucose and lipid metabolism by increasing mitochondrial biogenesis in skeletal muscle.
CONCLUSIONS: Sudachitin may improve dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome by improving energy metabolism. Furthermore, it also induces mitochondrial biogenesis to protect against metabolic disorders. PMID: 25114710 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Metabolic syndrome in the prediction of cardiovascular events: the potential additive role of hsCRP and adiponectin
Conclusions MS is an important predictor of cardiovascular events and is most harmful in combination with high plasma hsCRP. The clustering of components is especially harmful.

Coffee: A Selected Overview of Beneficial or Harmful Effects on the Cardiovascular System?
Abstract With a history that began in 800 A.D., coffee is the most popular drink known and as a result, the issues regarding its physiologic effects deserve attention. Maintaining alertness is a well-known benefit and in addition, the cardiovascular (CV) effects of the active compounds, which include polyphenols and caffeine, must be considered. Genetics are relevant and where slow caffeine metabolism is inherent, the risk of nonfatal myocardial (MI) has been shown to be increased. Overall risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) is not supported and unless there is excessive intake, congestive heart failure (CHF) is...

Systematic literature review of the risk factors, comorbidities, and consequences of hypogonadism in men
The objective of this review was to summarize the literature on the risk factors, comorbidities, and consequences of male hypogonadism, which is defined as a syndrome complex that includes biochemical confirmation of low testosterone (T) and the consistent symptoms and signs associated with low T. A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library for articles published in the last 10 years on risk factors, comorbidities, and consequences of male hypogonadism. Of the 53 relevant studies identified, nine examined potential risk factors, 14 examined potential comorbidities, and 30 exami...

Association between high sensitivity C-reactive protein and metabolic syndrome in subjects completing the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009–10
Conclusions Presence of metabolic syndrome was common in subjects from NHANES 2009–10 and a significant “dose-related” association was confirmed between number of metabolic syndrome conditions and increasing odds of elevated hs-CRP concentration.

Unilateral Symptomatic Intracranial Arterial Stenosis and Myopathy in an Adolescent with Graves Disease: A Case Report of an High-resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study
Vascular and muscular involvements in Graves disease (GD) are rare. Here, we report a case of a 17-year-old patient with unilateral symptomatic middle cerebral artery stenosis concurrent with GD and myopathy. He presented with a 1-day history of acute severe right-sided hemiparesis and aphasia and a 3-week history of high metabolic syndrome. The pathogenesis of the stenosis is most likely vasculitis rather than atherosclerosis, based on contrast-enhanced high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging showing concentric wall enhancement.

Self-reported eating rate and metabolic syndrome in Japanese people: cross-sectional study
Conclusions Results suggest that eating rate is associated with the presence of metabolic syndrome and that this association is largely accounted for by the difference in body mass according to eating rate.
