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...
The impact of the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has many facets. This ecological study analysed age-standardized incidence rates by economic level in Barcelona. We evaluated confirmed cases COVID-19 Barcelona (Spain) between 26 February 2020 and 19 April 2020. Districts were classified according to most recent (2017) mean income data. reference for estimating cumulative was 2018 European population. association rate district estimated with Spearman rho. lower income, higher (Spearman...
To assess whether statin treatment is associated with a reduction in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality old very adults without diabetes.Retrospective cohort study.Database of the Catalan primary care system (SIDIAP), Spain, 2006-15.46 864 people aged 75 years or more clinically recognised CVD. Participants were stratified by presence type 2 diabetes mellitus as non-users new users.Incidences CVD all cause compared using Cox proportional hazards modelling, adjusted...
High prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors has been observed in Spain along with low incidence acute myocardial infarction. Our objective was to determine the trends factor between 1995 and 2005 35-74-year-old population Gerona, Spain.Comparison cross-sectional studies were conducted random samples 1995, 2000, at Spain.An electrocardiogram obtained, standardized measurements body mass index, lipid profile, systolic diastolic blood pressure, glycaemia, energy expenditure physical...
Evidence is lacking about the effectiveness of risk reduction interventions in patients with asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease. This study aimed to assess whether statin therapy was associated a major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and mortality this population. Data were obtained from 2006 through 2013 Catalan primary care system's clinical records database (SIDIAP). Patients age 35 85 years an ankle-brachial index ≤0.95 without clinically recognized disease (CVD) included....
Education and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are inversely associated but the mediating factors have not been totally elucidated. Our aim was to analyze role of modifiable risk factors. Cohort study using REGICOR population cohorts. Participants without previous CVD were included (n = 9226). Marginal structural models used association between education incidence at 6 years follow-up. Mediation by (diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, smoking, body mass index, physical activity) assessed...
Background Within the framework of multi-centre AIRGENE project we studied association Mediterranean diet on plasma levels various inflammatory markers, in myocardial infarction (MI) survivors from six geographic areas Europe. Methods From 2003 to 2004, 1003 patients were repeatedly clinically examined. On every clinical visit (on average 5.8 times), blood EDTA-plasma samples collected. High sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6 and fibrinogen concentrations measured based...
Objective To examine the association between chronic immune-mediated diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus or following inflammatory diagnoses groups: bowel diseases, polyarthropathies, connective tissue disorders and spondylopathies) 6-year coronary artery disease, stroke, cardiovascular disease incidence overall mortality; to estimate population attributable fractions for all four end-points each disease. Methods Cohort study of individuals aged 35–85 years, with no...
