Adiposity, CVD risk factors and testosterone
Background and objectives: In many settings, partnered, invested fathers have lower testosterone than single men or fathers who are not involved in caregiving. Reduced testosterone has been identified as a risk factor for multiple chronic diseases, and men's health also commonly varies by life history status. There have been few tests of whether variation in testosterone based on partnering and...
متن کاملKnowledge of risk factors for diabetes or cardiovascular disease (CVD) is poor among individuals with risk factors for CVD
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence on whether having pre-existing cardiovascular disease (CVD) or risk factors for CVD such as diabetes, ensures greater knowledge of risk factors important for motivating preventative behaviours. Our objective was to compare knowledge among the Australian public participating in a health check program and their risk status. METHODS Data from the Stroke Found...
متن کاملEmerging Risk Factors for Stroke
Establishing new approaches for the prevention and treatment of stroke relies on identifying modifiable risk factors that contribute to the development of this complex disease. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies, analogous to naturally occurring randomized trials, can assess causality of potentially modifiable biomarkers and offer new insights into biological pathways. Stroke is the second le...
متن کاملPopulation Attributable Risk (PAR) of Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) Risk Factors; Bayesian Methods
Background & Objective: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in most countries. By identifying the population attributable risk (PAR) of the main risk factors of CVDs, the overall effect of various exposures on a population can be determined; the findings could be used in CVD prevention. The present study aimed to explore the PAR of some factors, includin...
متن کاملWhite Rice Consumption and CVD Risk Factors among Iranian Population
Association between white rice intake and risk factors of cardiovascular diseases remained uncertain. Most of the previous published studies have been done in western countries with different lifestyles, and scant data are available from the Middle East region, including Iran. This cross-sectional study was conducted in the structure of Isfahan Healthy Heart Program (IHHP) to assess the associa...
