Epidemiologic risk factors for esophageal cancer development.
In retrospective studies of esophageal cancer (EC), cigarettes and hookah smoking, nass use (a chewing tobacco product), opium consumption, hot tea drinking, poor oral health, low intake of fresh fruit and vegetables, and low socioeconomic status have been associated with a higher risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Barrett's esophagus is clearly recognized as a risk factor for EC, and ...
متن کاملRisk factors for vascular dementia: Hypotension as a key point
Physiologically, the cerebral autoregulation system allows maintenance of constant cerebral blood flow over a wide range of blood pressure. In old people, there is a progressive reshape of cerebral autoregulation from a sigmoid curve to a straight line. This implies that any abrupt change in blood pressure will result in a rapid and significant change in cerebral blood flow. Hypertension has of...
متن کاملGenetically elevated non-fasting triglycerides and calculated remnant cholesterol as causal risk factors for myocardial infarction.
AIMS Elevated non-fasting triglycerides mark elevated levels of remnant cholesterol. Using a Mendelian randomization approach, we tested whether genetically increased remnant cholesterol in hypertriglyceridaemia due to genetic variation in the apolipoprotein A5 gene (APOA5) associates with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS AND RESULTS We resequenced the core promoter an...
متن کاملNew Insights into Dialysis Vascular Access: Introduction.
Optimizing vascular access outcomes continues to pose a tremendous challenge to nephrologists, surgeons, and radiologists who provide medical care to patients on hemodialysis. There is a huge discrepancy between the optimal vascular access outcome proposed by national guidelines (1) and the reality. Thus, for example, whereas the guidelines suggest that most patients should initiate hemodialysi...
متن کاملWhat Are Vascular Risk Factors?
Vascular Risk Factors refer to risk factors that increase an individual’s chances of developing cardiovascular disease [1]. Vascular risk factors have also been linked to an increased risk of cognitive impairment and dementia [2]. It is therefore important that we are aware of vascular risk factors that we can modify through healthy changes to our lifestyle in order to reduce our risk of cognit...
