Dynamic changes in the contribution of air pollution, meteorological conditions and aging to cardiovascular mortality.

B) Cardiovascular mortality C) Respiratory mortality eFigure 3. Percent change in all-cause mortality (A), cardiovascular mortality (B), and respiratory mortality (C) per IQR increase in chemical components of PM 2.5 at single-day lags from 0 to 3, adjusted for ambient temperature, relative humidity, Ox, and NO 2 .

OBJECTIVE There is limited information on whether increased serum uric acid levels are independently associated with cardiovascular mortality in type 2 diabetes. We assessed the predictive role of serum uric acid levels on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a large cohort of type 2 diabetic individuals. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The cohort included 2,726 type 2 diabetic outpatients, ...

conclusions cardiovascular and respiratory problems mortality, as well as referrals to hospitals due to such diseases, was increased since 2010 till 2012. in 2013, however, the death toll was less than what had been in 2012, in spite of more concentration. the reason is that ahvaz had 160 days with concentration more than 400 μg/m3 in 2013 whereas this was 198 days in 2012. also, every 10 μg.m-...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the predictive role of increased corrected QT (QTc) and QT interval dispersion (QTd) on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a large, unselected type 2 diabetic population. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The prospective study included 1,357 type 2 diabetic patients from the Casale Monferrato Study. At baseline, QTc intervals >0.44 s and QTd intervals >0.08 s were consi...

Despite adequate glycemic and blood pressure control, treated type 2 diabetic hypertensive subjects have a significantly elevated overall/cardiovascular risk. We studied 244 816 normotensive and 99 720 hypertensive subjects (including 7480 type 2 diabetics) attending medical checkups between 1992 and 2011. We sought to identify significant differences in overall/cardiovascular risk between hype...
