Study of Exonic Variation Identifies Incremental Information Regarding Lipid-Related and Coronary Heart Disease Genes

Study of exonic variation identifies incremental information regarding lipid-related and coronary heart disease genes.

Positive correlation between variants of lipid metabolism-related genes and coronary heart disease

Four gene variants related to lipid metabolism (including the rs562338 and rs503662 variants of the APOB gene, the rs7767084 variant of the LPA gene and the rs2246942 variant of the LIPA gene) have been shown to be associated with coronary heart disease (CHD). The aim of the present study was to assess their association with CHD in the Han Chinese population and to assess the contribution of th...

the role of type-d personality, social support and self-compassion in prediction of health behaviors in coronary heart disease patients

نظر به اهمیت و تاثیر روزافزون عوامل روانی – اجتماعی در سلامت جسمی و تاثیر عوامل روان شناختی در بروز بیماریهای مختلف از جمله بیماریهای قلبی و عروقی این پژوهش با هدف کلی بررسی ارتباط تیپ شخصیتی d ، حمایت اجتماعی و خود دلسوزی در پیش بینی رفتارهای بهداشتی بیماران کرونر قلبی و تعیین تفاوت بین بیماران کرونر قلبی با و بدون جراحی و افراد سالم در این متغیرها و رفتارهای بهداشتی آنان، انجام گرفت. جامعه آ...

Association of lipid markers with coronary heart disease and stroke mortality: A 15-year follow-up study

Objective(s): It has been proposed that lipid markers may predict cardiovascular events; however, their effect may vary depending on the type of cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of lipid markers on death from coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke in competing risks setting.Materials and Methods:</stron...

[Genes and coronary heart disease].

The causes of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease have been intensely scrutinized for the last few decades. Since the classic risk factors have been found to be incomplete predictors of the disease, additional risk factors based on molecular genetics are now being sought. Polymorphisms are gene variations that have only modest effects on the function of coded proteins or enzymes. However, th...
