Atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis: association with emerging vascular risk factors.
BACKGROUND The established risk factors for atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) include hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, obesity, smoking, old age and family history. In the last few years, several emerging risk factors have been proposed as predictors of ARAS, namely homocysteine, fibrinogen, C-reactive protein, lipoprotein(a) and creatinine. METHODS We searched Pubmed...

Traditional Risk Factors and Vascular Risk Most data derived from large populations pertaining to risk factors for noncoronary AVD are found in studies primarily focusing on coronary heart disease (CHD), such as the Framingham Heart Study,1 the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study (ARIC),2 the Honolulu Heart Study,3 and the Strong Heart Study.4 With rare exception, the evidence from these ...
متن کاملAdvances in Genetics Genome-Wide Association Studies for Atherosclerotic Vascular Disease and Its Risk Factors
Atherosclerotic vascular disease is a major health care burden, being the leading cause of morbidity and death worldwide.1 A better understanding of the genetic basis of atherosclerotic vascular disease is urgently needed to provide new insights into the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms and facilitate development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. The advent of genome-wide ...
