Journal ArticleDOI

The role of vascular biomarkers for primary and secondary prevention. A position paper from the European Society of Cardiology Working Group on peripheral circulation: Endorsed by the Association for Research into Arterial Structure and Physiology (ARTERY) Society.

TL;DR: The role of peripheral (i.e. not related to coronary circulation) noninvasive vascular biomarkers for primary and secondary cardiovascular disease prevention is scrutinized and it is still unclear whether a specific vascular biomarker is overly superior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stromelysin-1 and Interleukin-6 Gene Promoter Polymorphisms Are Determinants of Asymptomatic Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis

TL;DR: Genetic factors that predispose to reduced matrix remodeling and to increased inflammation combine to increase susceptibility for intima-media thickening in the carotid bifurcation, a predilection site for atherosclerosis.
Journal Article

Stromelysin-1 and interleukin-6 gene promoter polymorphisms are determinants of asymptomatic carotid artery atherosclerosis

TL;DR: The 5A/6A polymorphism independently explained 7% of the variance in carotid bifurcation intima-media thickness (IMT) by high-resolution ultrasonography.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breath Sensors for Health Monitoring

TL;DR: Key challenges that currently impede realization of breath sensors are described and strategies to overcome them are highlighted.
