Is subclinical myocardial injury the smoking gun linking obesity with heart failure?
A lthough rates of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease are on the decline, heart failure (HF) is slowly becoming a global epidemic. Recent projections suggest that the prevalence of HF will increase almost 50% from 2012 to 2030 and that 1 in 5 adults will develop HF over their lifetime (1). This emergent HF burden is in part attributable to aging of the population and improved survival from ...
متن کاملObesity, leptin, and incident heart failure.
Obesity has been established as a risk factor for the development of heart failure (HF), independent of the established risk factors for HF such as diabetes and hypertension. Studies have demonstrated a continuous gradient of HF risk with increasing body mass index (BMI) (1,2). Although waist circumference (WC) or waist-hip ratio measurements are more representative of central or abdominal obes...
متن کاملobesity, heart failure, and obesity paradox
the incidence and prevalence of obesity are fast increasing worldwide. various indices have been used to measure and assess obesity. the body mass index (bmi) is the most common and practical of these indices. overweight and obesity exert considerable adverse effects on the cardiovascular system. these effects are mediated through various neurohormonal and cytokine pathways, most of which are i...
متن کاملHodgkin’s Lymphoma Presenting with Myocardial Metastasis and Heart Failure
Although involvement of the heart by malignant lymphoma is relatively common, it is unusual to be detected premortem. We report a case of Hodgkin's lymphoma who presented with systemic signs and symptoms including abdominal distension, weakness, pallor, chills and fever, hepatosplenomegaly and generalize...
متن کاملHyperuricemia and incident heart failure.
BACKGROUND Hyperuricemia, a known correlate of oxidative stress, is a marker for adverse prognosis among individuals with heart failure. However, the relationship between hyperuricemia and the risk for incidence of heart failure in a community-based population has not been studied. METHODS AND RESULTS We prospectively analyzed the relationship between serum uric acid concentration at baseline...
