Prehypertension in dyslipidemic individuals; relationship to metabolic parameters and intima-media thickness.
INTRODUCTION Like hypertension, prehypertension is associated with cardiovascular disease. AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate: a) the prevalence of prehypertension/hypertension in individuals with various dyslipidemic phenotypes; b) the relation between blood pressure (BP) and other risk factors for atherosclerosis; c) atherogenic potential of prehypertension by the assessment of inti...
متن کاملTotal adiponectin levels in dyslipidemic individuals: relationship to metabolic parameters and intima-media thickness.
INTRODUCTION Adiponectin is adipocytokin with anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic effects. However, studies examining the relationship between adiponectin and cardiovascular diseases have shown inconsistent results. AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate the plasma levels of adiponectin in clinically asymptomatic subjects with various dyslipidemic phenotypes. The associations between a...
متن کاملImpact of Prehypertension on Carotid Artery Intima Media Thickness
Background: Recent evidence supports that the prehypertension is associated with target organ damage, though there is lack of information regarding common carotid artery intima media thickness (CIMT) in prehypertensive individuals. We aimed to study the role of prehypertension in target organ damage in the form of CIMT. Methods: Carotid CIMT was measured by B-mode ultrasonography by an experien...
متن کاملEarly and current physical activity: relationship with intima-media thickness and metabolic variables in adulthood
Background: It is unclear whether early physical activity has a greater influence on intima-media thickness and metabolic variables than current physical activity. Objective: To analyze the relationship between current and early physical activity, metabolic variables, and intima-media thickness measures in adults. Method: The sample was composed of 55 healthy subjects of both sexes (33 men and ...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Lichen Planus and Carotid Intima Media Thickness.
BACKGROUND Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory disease. Although the association between chronic inflammation and subclinical atherosclerosis has been reported in the literature, the relationship between LP and carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) has not been previously investigated. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between LP and CIMT. METHODS One hundred ...
