Unraveling the links between diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease.
Patients with diabetes mellitus are known to be at increased risk for coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction, and have worse outcomes after coronary interventions such as stenting.1 The mechanisms for this increased risk are not fully known, but are thought to reflect vascular abnormalities of inflammation, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and hypercoagulability.2 In turn, these vascular ...
متن کاملMice take calculated risks.
Animals successfully navigate the world despite having only incomplete information about behaviorally important contingencies. It is an open question to what degree this behavior is driven by estimates of stochastic parameters (brain-constructed models of the experienced world) and to what degree it is directed by reinforcement-driven processes that optimize behavior in the limit without estima...
متن کاملCorrelation between Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Calculated, and Measured Lipoproteins: Whether Calculated Small Density Lipoprotein Fraction Predicts Cardiovascular Risks
Background Recent literature in lipidology has identified LDL-fractions to be more atherogenic. In this regard, small density LDL-cholesterol (sdLDLc) has been considered to possess more atherogenicity than other LDL-fractions like large buoyant LDL-cholesterol (lbLDLc). Recently, Srisawasdi et al. have developed a method for calculating sdLDLc and lbLDLc based upon a regression equation. Using...
متن کاملAngiogenesis in Diabetes. Unraveling the Angiogenic Paradox
Angiogenesis can be regarded as a double-edged sword given its useful actions in repairing tissues, and secondly due to its effects in enhancing tissue damage. Angiogenesis is actually involved in the pathogenesis of disorders in which the inflammatory component is a major contributor for disease progression, such as diabetes. It is now stated that angiogenesis together with vasculogenesis part...
