Dietary micronutrient intakes are associated with markers of inflammation but not with markers of subclinical atherosclerosis.
Few studies have examined associations of dietary micronutrients with markers of inflammation and subclinical atherosclerosis. The present study investigated associations of heme iron, nonheme iron, zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), β-carotene, vitamin C, and vitamin E with C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-6, total homocysteine (tHcy), fibrinogen, coronary artery calcium, and common and internal carotid a...
متن کاملImaging Markers of Subclinical Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a generalized disorder that progresses very slowly. Early detection of atherosclerosis is very important to prevent cardiovascular disease such as myocardial infarction, stroke and sudden cardiac death. Various surrogate markers have recently been proposed for the early detection of atherosclerosis in asymptomatic patients who have one or more risk factors. Among them, biomar...
متن کاملChemerin is not associated with subclinical atherosclerosis markers in prediabetes and diabetes
OBJECTIVE Chemerin is a novel adipokine that is correlated with adipocyte differentiation, glucose metabolism, and inflammation. We aimed to investigate the relation between serum chemerin level and subclinical atherosclerosis markers as exemplified by brachial artery pulse wave velocity (baPWV), carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), epicardial fat thickness (EFT), and carotid plaque presence ...
متن کاملDietary patterns are associated with biochemical markers of inflammation and endothelial activation in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA).
BACKGROUND Dietary patterns may influence cardiovascular disease risk through effects on inflammation and endothelial activation. OBJECTIVE We examined relations between dietary patterns and markers of inflammation and endothelial activation. DESIGN At baseline, diet (food-frequency questionnaire) and concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), homocysteine, soluble in...
متن کاملElevated levels of monocyte activation markers are associated with subclinical atherosclerosis in men with and those without HIV infection.
BACKGROUND Heightened immune activation among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected persons may contribute to atherosclerosis. We assessed associations of serologic markers of monocyte activation, soluble CD163 (sCD163) and soluble CD14 (sCD14), and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (CCL2) with subclinical atherosclerosis among men with and those without HIV infection in the Multicenter ...
