Objectives To evaluate the impact of dietary sodium and potassium (Na–K) ratio on mortality from total subtypes stroke, cardiovascular disease (CVD) all causes, using 24-year follow-up data a representative sample Japanese population. Setting Prospective cohort study. Participants In 1980 National Cardiovascular Survey, participants were followed for 24 years (NIPPON DATA80, Integrated Project Observation Non-communicable Disease And its Trends in Aged). Men women aged 30–79 without...
Abstract Background The impact of triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a surrogate marker for insulin resistance, on the risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) in general populations remains controversial. We aimed to comprehensively study relationship between TyG index with incident CVD events population Shanghai. Methods A total 42,651 participants without previous history from Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank (SSACB) were included. SSACB was community-based natural cohort using...
The association between insulin resistance (IR) and coronary artery calcification (CAC) has been uncertain after adjustment for metabolic syndrome components. We aimed to evaluate whether IR is associated with CAC prevalence or progression independently of components.We conducted a population-based study in random sample Japanese men aged 40 79 years determined using the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR). associations HOMA-IR other diabetic parameters per 1-SD increase were evaluated...
Smoking is an overwhelming, but preventable, risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), although smoking prevalence remains high in developed and developing countries East Asia.In a population-based sample of 1019 Japanese men aged 40 to 79 years, without CVD, we examined cross-sectional associations status, cumulative pack-years, daily consumption, time since cessation, with subclinical atherosclerosis at 4 anatomically distinct vascular beds, including coronary artery calcification,...
Abstract Background Studies on the effect of sleep duration cardiovascular health have contradictory findings. Underlying issues may led to inconsistent results and warrant consideration. We aim assess relationship night with incident disease (CVD) in a general population, taking into consideration underlying chronic diseases. Methods Data from Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort Biobank median follow-up 5.1 years was used, including 33,883 adults aged 20–74 old. Incident CVD cases were reported...
Intimate partner violence (IPV), including physical, sexual, and emotional violence, constitutes a critical public health problem, particularly in low- middle-income countries. While climate change could escalate violent events, data quantifying its possible association with IPV are scant.
Abstract Purpose There is no consensus on the standard approach for trans-sphincteric perianal fistulas (TPAF) in elderly population. The most commonly used sphincter-saving procedures are ligation of inter-sphincteric fistula tract (LIFT) and mucosal advancement flap (MAF). We aimed to evaluate incidence risk factors recurrence incontinence patients with TPAF using both approaches. Methods This retrospective study included 257 who underwent LIFT (136 patients) or MAF (121 de novo...
The incidence of coronary heart disease in the United States has declined, and prevalences several risk factors have become comparable to those Japan. Therefore, burden atherosclerosis may be closer among younger persons 2 countries. We aimed compare atherosclerosis, measured with artery calcium scores, between men countries by age group (45–54, 55–64, or 65–74 years). used community-based samples Caucasian (2000–2002; n = 1,067) Japanese Japan (2006–2008; 832) aged 45–74 years, stratifying...
Equol, a metabolite of the dietary isoflavone daidzein, is produced by action gut bacteria in some individuals who are termed as equol-producers. It proposed to have stronger atheroprotective properties than isoflavones. We examined cross-sectional association isoflavones and equol-producer status with coronary artery calcification (CAC), biomarker atherosclerosis, among men Japan. A population-based sample 272 Japanese aged 40-49 years recruited from 2004 2007 was for serum isoflavones,...
Objective: The mechanism by which higher blood pressure (BP) variability causes cardiovascular events remains unclear. Experimental results indicate that alterations in vessel wall tension related to BP may initiate atherosclerosis through oscillatory shear stress. We examined associations of home with subclinical at four anatomically distinct vascular beds. Methods: In a cross-sectional population-based study 1033 Japanese (mean age, 64.0 years; men, 88.7%) without known disease, we defined...
Recently, high-density lipoprotein particles (HDL-P) have been found to be more strongly inversely associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) risk than their counterpart, HDL cholesterol (HDL-C). Given that lifestyle is among the first targets in CAD prevention, we compared associations of HDL-P and HDL-C selected factors. Methods Results: We examined 789 Japanese participants INTERLIPID Study: men (n=386) women (n=403) aged 40-59 years 1996-1998. Participants treated for dyslipidemias...
Aim: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a simple and valid clinical method for assessing arterial stiffness. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) an intermediate stage in the process leading to overt cardiovascular disease (CVD) established determinant of coronary disease. This study aimed examine association between PWV CAC population-based sample Japanese men.Methods: cross-sectional 986 randomly selected men aged 40-79 years from Shiga, Japan. CVD-free participants were examined 2006 2008....
Calcification in the coronary and aortic arteries has been linked to cardiovascular morbidity mortality. The pathophysiological influence of artery calcification (AAC) differs from that (CAC). We aimed compare relationships between CAC AAC disease (CVD) risk factors.We examined a random sample 1035 Japanese men aged 40-79 years. were measured by computed tomography scored according Agatston method. Using logistic regression, we calculated odds ratio (OR) as being highest quintile (Q5) score...
Cognitive dysfunction has been recognized as a diabetes-related complication. Whether hyperglycemia or elevated fasting glucose are associated with cognitive decline remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the relationship between levels and function in diabetic non-diabetic individuals.Participants were Japanese (n = 191) 616) men, aged 46-81 years, from 2010-2014. Blood samples taken after 12 h fast. The Ability Screening Instrument (CASI), maximum score of 100, was used for...
