Abstract

This study demonstrated an immediate and short-lasting endothelin-1 release in the circulation of patients with severe chronic congestive heart failure during isometric handgrip exercise, but not in normal subjects. Our data suggest that endothelin-1 levels may increase transiently during daily physical activity, thus contributing to progressive deterioration of left ventricular function.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
