Eye markers of cardiovascular disease.
Most clinicians are aware that arcus corneae and xanthelasmata are related to hyperlipidaemia, but results have been conflicting on whether they provide extra information compared with traditional risk factors when predicting the risk of cardiovascular disease. In the linked prospective cohort study (doi:10.1136/ bmj.d5497), Christoffersen and colleagues assess whether xanthelasmata and arcus c...
متن کاملSurrogate markers for cardiovascular disease: functional markers.
Endothelial Dysfunction The endothelium constitutes the largest organ system in the body. “Endothelial function” refers to a multitude of physiological functions of the vascular endothelium that are achieved via secretion of diverse bioactive substances. This renders the endothelium an active participant in healthy homeostasis of the vascular wall that includes normal vasomotion, inhibition of ...
متن کاملSurrogate markers for cardiovascular disease: structural markers.
Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Pignoli et al1 validated the concept that intima-media thickness (IMT), as measured by B-mode ultrasound and applied either in vitro or in situ at the time of autopsy, reflected direct measurements of aortic and/or carotid specimens. Values obtained by ultrasound at autopsy and by direct measurement were similar to those obtained from living subjects. The characte...
متن کاملLipid-related markers and cardiovascular disease prediction.
CONTEXT The value of assessing various emerging lipid-related markers for prediction of first cardiovascular events is debated. OBJECTIVE To determine whether adding information on apolipoprotein B and apolipoprotein A-I, lipoprotein(a), or lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 to total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) improves cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk p...
متن کاملCardiovascular Disease-Risk Markers in HIV Patients
OBJECTIVES HIV-positive patients have an increased risk for CVD; however, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Our goal was to assess traditional and emerging CVD-risk factors in the CARE Study, a well-described cohort of HIV-infected adults. METHODS We analyzed demographic and clinical (viral load, CD4 count, ART regimen, cIMT) data including markers of lipid and glucose homeos...
