OBJECTIVE Diabetes is a common cause of shortened life expectancy. We aimed to assess the association between diabetes and cause-specific death. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS used pooled analysis individual data from 12 Spanish population cohorts with 10-year follow-up. Participants had no previous history cardiovascular diseases were 35–79 years old. status was self-reported or defined as glycemia >125 mg/dL at baseline. Vital causes death ascertained by medical records review linkage...

<b>Background:</b> To assess the reliability and accuracy of Framingham coronary heart disease (CHD) risk function adapted by Registre Gironí del Cor (REGICOR) investigators in Spain. <b>Methods:</b> A 5-year follow-up study was completed 5732 participants aged 35–74 years. The adaptation consisted using average population factor prevalence cumulative incidence observed Spain instead those from a Cox proportional hazards model. Reliability estimating were tested with area under curve...

Traffic noise has been associated with prevalence of hypertension, but reports are inconsistent for blood pressure (BP). To ascertain effects and to disentangle them from those suspected be traffic-related air pollution, it may essential estimate people's exposure indoors in bedrooms.We analyzed associations between long-term indoor traffic bedrooms prevalent hypertension systolic (SBP) diastolic (DBP) BP, considering outdoor nitrogen dioxide (NO2).We evaluated 1,926 cohort participants at...

Abstract The protective effect of phenolic compounds from an olive oil extract, and oils with (extra‐virgin) without (refined) components, on low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation was investigated. When added to isolated LDL, phenolics [0.025–0.3 mg/L caffeic acid equivalents (CAE)] increased the lag time conjugated diene formation after copper‐mediated LDL in a concentration‐dependent manner. Concentrations greater than 20 inhibited thiobarbituric‐acid reactive substances AAPH‐initiated...
