Hypertension poses a major public health challenge due to its association with increased risk of heart disease, chronic kidney and death. The objective this study is evaluate the longitudinal between periodontitis hypertension. Using cohort design, 540 participants free diagnosed hypertension/prehypertension in San Juan Overweight Adults Longitudinal Study complete 3-year follow-up data were included. Periodontitis was classified according 2012 Centers for Disease Control Prevention/American...
Abstract Objectives Hypertension poses major public health challenge due to its association with increased risk of heart disease, chronic kidney and death. The objective this study is evaluate the longitudinal between periodontitis hypertension. Methods 540 participants free diagnosed hypertension/prehypertension in San Juan Overweight Adults Longitudinal Study (SOALS) complete 3-year follow-up data were included. Periodontitis was classified according 2012 CDC/AAP definition. Participants...
Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying the association of overall and central body fatness with poorer breast cancer outcomes remain unclear; altered gene and/or protein expression adipokines their respective receptors in tumor microenvironment may play a role. Methods In sample Black White women primary invasive cancer, we investigated associations mass index (BMI), waist circumference, hip waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), fat index, percent (log-transformed, n = 722)...
