Adrenocortical, Autonomic, and Inflammatory Causes of the Metabolic Syndrome Nested Case-Control Study

TL;DR: This case-control study provides the first evidence that chronic stress may be a cause of MS and reversibility and power of psychosocial and behavioral factors to explain the neuroendocrine adaptations that accompany MS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 with cognitive symptoms of depression: 12-year follow-up of the Whitehall II study.

Blood viscosity and risk of cardiovascular events: the Edinburgh Artery Study

TL;DR: The relationships of whole blood viscosity and its major determinants to incident cardiovascular events were at least as strong as those of conventional risk factors (smoking habit, diastolic blood pressure, and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol).
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between smoking and cardiovascular risk factors in the development of peripheral arterial disease and coronary artery disease: Edinburgh Artery Study.

TL;DR: The combined effect of smoking on the cardiovascular risk factors studied may explain part of its influence on peripheral and coronary arterial disease, but the majority of the effect appears to be due to other mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
