2. 1. Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Disease

   Author : Kasper Andersen; Johan Sundström; Claes Held; Frieder Braunschweig; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Physical activity; epidemiology; cohort study; heart failure; cardiovascular disease; arrhythmias; atrial fibrillation; bradyarrhythmias; sudden cardiac death; heart failure; stroke; ischemic heart disease; cardiovascular death; maximal exercise capacity; muscle strength; skeletal muscle morphology; Kardiologi; Cardiology; Epidemiology; Epidemiologi;

   Abstract : The aim was to investigate associations of fitness and types and levels of physical activity with subsequent risk of cardiovascular disease.Four large-scale longitudinal cohort studies were used. The exposures were different measures related to physical activity and the outcomes were obtained through linkage to the Swedish In-Patient Register. READ MORE

5. 3. Influence of bone-associated and cardiovascular biomarkers on vascular events and mortality in relation to renal dysfunction

   Author : Ping-Hsun Wu; Östen Ljunggren; Bengt Fellström; Torbjörn Linde; Jonas Spaak; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; biomarkers; bone markers; cardiovascular markers; proteomics; vascular event; mortality; renal function; hemodialysis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

   Abstract : Biomarkers can help physicians identify subjects with an increased cardiovascular risk. Apart from the clinical factors, some biomarkers have been recognized as important predictors and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in renal disease. READ MORE

6. 4. Diabetes Mellitus and Cardiovascular Risk : epidemiology, etiology and intervention

   Author : Aslak Rautio; Kurt Boman; Anna Norhammar; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : Diabetes; Cardiovascular risk; epidemiology; myocardial infarction; stroke; fibrinolysis; insulin treatment; Diabetes; kardiovaskulär risk; epidemilogi; hjärtinfarkt; stroke; fibrinolys; insulinbehandling; cardiovascular disease; hjärt- och kärlforskning;

   Abstract : Background: The Framingham Study from 1988 showed a heavy impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the risk and prognosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Several other studies have confirmed that DM is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD) and that patients with DM have a poor prognosis. READ MORE

7. 5. Cardiovascular disease and diabetes or renal insufficiency : the risk of ischemic stroke and risk factor intervention

   Author : Stina Jakobsson; Thomas Mooe; Fredrik Björklund; Joep Perk; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiovascular disease; secondary prevention; diabetes mellitus; chronic kidney disease; acute coronary syndrome; stroke; randomized control trial; cardiovascular disease; hjärt- och kärlforskning;

   Abstract : BackgroundIn patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), established cardiovascular disease (CVD) is associated with an increased risk of recurrent events and poor outcome. Ischemic stroke after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a devastating event that carries high risks of decreased patient independence and death. READ MORE
