Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death in renal transplant recipients. Traditional risk factors like hypertension, dyslipidaemia and diabetes mellitus are common, but cannot completely account for the high prevalence of CVD in this population. The aim of the present study was to assess whether post-transplant glucose intolerance, defined as post-transplant diabetes mellitus, impaired glucose tolerance, or impaired fasting glucose, is associated with metabolic disturbances known to increase risk of cardiovascular disease, similar to what has been observed in the general population. One hundred and seventy-three consecutive patients were prospectively examined 10 weeks after transplantation. An oral glucose tolerance test was completed in 167 patients. Questionnaires, medical records, and the results of various blood tests were used to evaluate a number of known cardiovascular risk factors in all patients. Glucose intolerance was present in about one-half the recipients and was associated with age, a positive family history of ischaemic heart disease, acute rejection, higher levels of serum triglycerides, apolipoprotein B and 2-h insulin, and lower levels of serum HDL cholesterol. After adjustment for age and se...Continue Reading

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.

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.
