Increased pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with ulcerative colitis
(Springer, 2013)
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized with chronic, progressive inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. the association of UC with cardiovascular disease is still a matter of debate. the aim of this study was to ...
Increased pulse-wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with lower urinary tract symptoms
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2013)
Objective. Vascular risk factors frequently coexist with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in both men and women, suggesting that atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction may play a major role in the development of ...
Total bilirubin levels predict subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with prediabetes
(Sage Publications Inc, 2016)
Bilirubin may have important antiatherosclerotic effects. Prediabetes (PD), the intermediate stage before diabetes mellitus, is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We evaluated the relationship ...
Plasma atherogenic index is an independent indicator of subclinical atherosclerosis in systemic lupus erythematosus
(Aves, 2017)
Objective: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by chronic inflammation. Plasma atherogenic index (PAI) is a valuable marker for the cardiovascular disease and cardiac risk. the aim of this study was to ...
The relationship between atherogenic index and carotid artery atherosclerosis in familial mediterranean fever: A pilot study
(Sage Publications Inc, 2017)
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is a disease characterized by chronic inflammation. Atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a logarithmic value of the triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and it is a ...
Helicobacter pylori can be related to carotid intima-media thickness, epicardial adipose tissue thickness and serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels
(Comenius Univ, 2018)
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (HP) affects the cardiovascular system. Our aim in this study was to evaluate, whether an infection with HP causes subclinical atherosclerosis. METHODS: We included 90 patients with dyspeptic ...
Low serum bilirubin levels associated with subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(Akademiai Kiado Zrt, 2018)
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic, progressive disease that can cause cardiovascular complications and atherosclerosis. We evaluated the relationship between serum bilirubin levels and carotid intima-media ...
Epicardial adipose tissue predicts carotid intima-media thickness independently of body mass index and waist circumference
(Taiwan Soc Cardiology, 2019)
Background: Visceral obesity is strongly associated with atherosclerosis. Even though waist circumference (WC) is the most common assessment method of total visceral adipose tissue and cardiometabolic risk, this method ...
The independent relationship of epicardial adipose tissue with carotid intima-media thickness and endothelial functions: The association of pulse wave velocity with the active facilitated arterial conduction concept
(Lippincott, 2013)
BACKGROUND: Hypertension, identifiable by elevated blood pressure (BP), is a heterogeneous multifactorial disorder. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a special fat depot that is related to visceral fat rather than total ...
Increased pulse wave velocity and carotid intima-media thickness in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome
(Wiley, 2013)
Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of our study was to determine whether carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), ...
