Download or read book Diabetes the Kidney and Cardiovascular Risk written by George L. Bakris and published by Clinics: Internal Medicine. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People with diabetes are two to four times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease. Insulin resistance, which leads to diabetes in 1 in 4 people who have it, affects 60 million Americans and is also a cardiovascular disease risk factor. It is important for cardiologists to understand the reasons why diabetes and insulin resistance cause increased cardiovascular risk so they can help their patients control these risk factors.

Download or read book Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease Diabetes and Chronic Kidney Disease written by Katherine Faulks and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) account for around a quarter of the burden of disease in Australia, and just under two-thirds of all deaths. These three diseases often occur together and share risk factors, such as physical inactivity, overweight and obesity, and high blood pressure. This report includes information on the national prevalence of the main risk factors for CVD, CKD and diabetes as well as population initiatives and individual services that aim to prevent or control these risk factors. It shows the prevalence of some risk factors is increasing-notably obesity, which rose from 11% of adults in 1995 to 24% in 2007-08. This is the first report to present a systematic approach to monitor prevention in Australia, providing a baseline for future monitoring.

Download or read book Cardiovascular Risk Due to Diabetes Mellitus in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease Prospective Data from the German Chronic Kidney Disease Cohort written by Johannes Ruhe and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are well-known cardiovascular and mortality risk factors. To what extent they act in an additive manner and whether the etiology of CKD modifies the risk is uncertain. Methods The multicenter, prospective, observational German Chronic Kidney Disease study comprises 5217 participants (1868 with DM) with a baseline mean estimated glomerular filtration rate of 30-60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or proteinuria >0.5 g/day. We categorized patients whose CKD was caused by cardiovascular or metabolic diseases (CKDcvm) with and without DM, as opposed to genuine CKD (CKDgen) with and without DM. Recorded outcomes were first events of non-cardiovascular and cardiovascular death, 4-point major adverse cardiovascular events (4-point MACE) and hospitalization for heart failure (HHF). Results During the 6.5-year follow-up 603 (12%) non-cardiovascular and 209 (4%) cardiovascular deaths, 645 (12%) 4-point MACE, and 398 (8%) HHF were observed, most frequently in patients with DM having CKDcvm. DM increased the risk of non-cardiovascular [hazard ratio (HR) 1.92; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.59-2.32] and cardiovascular (HR 2.25; 95% CI 1.62-3.12) deaths, 4-point MACE (HR 1.93; 95% CI 1.62-2.31) and HHF (HR 1.87; 95% CI 1.48-2.36). Mortality risks were elevated by DM to a similar extent in CKDcvm and CKDgen, but for HHF in CKDcvm only (HR 2.07; 95% CI 1.55-2.77). In patients with DM, CKDcvm (versus CKDgen) only increased the risk for HHF (HR 1.93; 95% CI 1.15-3.22). Conclusions DM contributes to cardiovascular and mortality excess risk in patients with moderate to severe CKD in both, CKDcvm and CKDgen. Patients with DM and CKDcvm are particularly susceptible to HHF

Download or read book Cardiovascular Risk in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus written by Nicolae Hancu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of time has been spent trying to convince health care providers and policy makers of the enormous importance of macrovascular disease in persons with type 2 diabetes. In this volume, we present facts that dem onstrate how important it is to recognize macrovascular disease in these patients in daily practice. This volume has been compiled to help those already involved in dia betes care, to be more involved in cardiovascular risk control, a task that is not easily achieved. The area of cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes is heterogeneous. Trying to characterize it, we can only say: certainly we know more than we do, but for sure we do less than we could. Our challenge is to change this. Nicolae Htmcu Professor N. Hancu was born in Romania in 1940. He studied medicine at the Iuliu Hatieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Cluj-Napoca, and obtained his speciality in internal medicine in 1970, and in diabetes, nutrition and metabolic disease in 1986. He was appointed Professor and Head of the Department of Diabetes, Nutrition and Metabolic Diseases of the same university in 1993. He has been a full member of the Romanian Academy of Medical Sciences since 1995. Professor Hancu's major interest is related to clinical lipidology, visceral obesity, and cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes. He has published over 200 papers and 14 books in this area. He has been invited as Visiting Professor at many universities in Madrid, Valladolid, Barcelona, and Los Angeles.

Download or read book Diabetic Retinopathy and Cardiovascular Disease written by C. Sabanayagam and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2019-06-03 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), a common microvascular complication, has consistently been shown to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This book provides complete coverage of DR as a potential marker for CVD in those with diabetes. It succinctly reviews the epidemiological and pathogenic links of DR to various cardiovascular events including stroke, coronary artery disease, chronic kidney disease, heart failure, and mortality. Furthermore, it discusses the usefulness of DR in CVD risk prediction and cardiovascular safety of anti-VEGF therapy in diabetic patients. There are insights from contemporary diabetic trials that demonstrated the enhanced cardiovascular benefit of novel glucose lowering therapy. It also highlights the potential of novel retinal imaging to predict CVD and its risk factors using the state-of-the art artificial intelligence-based deep learning systems. This book will be an invaluable resource for specialists translating research findings into clinical care, including those in cardiology, endocrinology, ophthalmology, and general practitioners. IT will also be of interest to public health practitioners, researchers, graduate students, and biotech companies interested in developing retinal image-based diagnostic and prognostic tools.

Download or read book Diabetic Kidney Disease written by Takashi Wada and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-21 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the latest information on the clinical-pathological features of diabetic kidney disease. The data included is based on a cohort study of biopsy-proven diabetic nephropathy patients and nephrosclerosis patients, who were observed over a long term, and on the long-term registry for diabetic nephropathy (diabetic kidney disease) in Japan. It provides a clinical-pathological axis in clinical settings, including differential pathological/clinical diagnoses of CKD in diabetic patients (e.g. the presence of “classic” diabetic nephropathy and/or nephrosclerosis and/or other primary kidney diseases). The abundant biopsy specimens with long-term medical records provide a detailed pathological and clinical description. The book also includes urine-sample data for developing and validating possible candidates for novel biomarkers for diabetic kidney disease.Many countries, including Japan, have ageing populations, in which nephrosclerosis contributes to the progression of kidney lesions in patients with diabetic kidney disease. As such, a comparison of a diabetic nephropathy cohort with nephrosclerosis is indispensable to offer better treatments.This comprehensive and informative book is an indispensible reference resource for all physicians and researchers in the field of nephrology and diabetes.
