BACKGROUND There is paucity of reliable contemporary data on prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and risk factors in Indians. Only a few studies on prevalence of CAD have been conducted in Kerala, a Southern Indian state. The main objective of the Cardiological Society of India Kerala Chapter Coronary Artery Disease and Its Risk Factors Prevalence Study (CSI Kerala CRP Study) was to det...

South Asians around the globe have the highest rates of coronary artery disease (CAD). These rates are 50% to 300% higher than other populations, with a higher risk at younger ages. These high rates of CAD are accompanied by low or similar rates of major traditional risk factors. The prevalence of diabetes is three to six times higher among South Asians than Europeans, Americans, and other Asia...

Carotid artery disease (CAD) can cause strokes or even death. Fortunately, some of the risk factors for CAD can be controlled, and the disease can be prevented, slowed or reversed. This article reviews those risk factors, along with normal and abnormal carotid artery anatomy, techniques for imaging the carotid arteries, treatment options for CAD and the roles of specialists who diagnose and tre...

Introduction Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common disease and among the leading cause of death in the general population. Inherited factors are involved in the pathogenesis of CAD. Aims Our study examined whether SNPs in TNIP1, MPHOSPH6, ZNF208 to be associated with CAD risk in a Chinese Han population. We recruited 596 CAD patients, 603 controls and genotyping fifteen SNPs using Sequeno...

BACKGROUND Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is widely regarded as a cumulative lifetime measure of atherosclerosis, but it remains unclear what is the relationship between calcification and traditional risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI). This study characterizes the genetic architecture of CAC by evaluating the overall impact of common alleles assoc...

Disturbed vasomotor function in coronary arteries has clinical importance in early stages of coronary artery disease (CAD), as it may contribute to the potential risk for an ischaemic coronary event. In the present study, we have investigated the relationship between coronary vasomotor function and the extent of CAD. The response to acetylcholine and nitrate infusion was assessed by quantitativ...

OBJECTIVES The study sought to contrast risk profiles and compare outcomes of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) and coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent aortic valve replacement (AVR) and coronary artery bypass grafting (AS+CABG) with those of patients with isolated AS who underwent AVR alone. BACKGROUND In patients with severe AS, CAD is often an incidental finding with undera...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in modern society. Known risk factors for coronary artery disease include dyslipidemia, hypertension, obesity, dysglycemia, insulin resistance, inflammation, arterial intimal thickening, development of vulnerable plaque and thrombosis. This study compared lipid parameters in CAD patients with healthy individuals to see th...

BACKGROUND/AIMS In type 2 diabetic patients, coronary artery disease (CAD) is usually detected at an advanced stage due to a lack of symptoms. The aim of this study was to define which clinical parameters or non-invasive tests predict CAD in asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients. METHODS One hundred fourteen asymptomatic type 2 diabetic patients were divided into two groups based on the numbe...

RATIONALE Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a critical determinant of morbidity and mortality. Previous studies have identified several cardiovascular disease risk factors, which may partly arise from a shared genetic basis with CAD, and thus be useful for discovery of CAD genes. OBJECTIVE We aimed to improve discovery of CAD genes and inform the pathogenic relationship between CAD and several...
