TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the relationship between frequency of fruit and vegetable intake and CHD risk in two European populations with contrasting cardiovascular incidence rates; France and Northern Ireland, and conclude that frequency of citrus fruit, but not other fruits, intake is associated with lower rates of acute coronary events in both France and Ireland.

Almeida,L. Flicker,Nicole M. Warrington,Michael Marmot,Yoav Ben-Shlomo,Lyle J. Palmer,Lyle J. Palmer,Ian N. M. Day,Shah Ebrahim,George Davey Smith +22 more
TL;DR: The findings do not support a causal association between circulating CRP and CHD risk, but very large, extended, genetic association studies would be required to rule this out.
Journal ArticleDOI
Birthweight, adult risk factors and incident coronary heart disease: the Caerphilly Study.
TL;DR: A graded association between low birthweight and later CHD has been demonstrated in this cohort, and this inverse association cannot be explained by the measured social or behavioural variables, or by other risk factors operating in adult life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bilirubin and coronary heart disease risk in the Prospective Epidemiological Study of Myocardial Infarction (PRIME).
Judith A. Troughton,Jayne V. Woodside,Ian S. Young,Dominique Arveiler,Philippe Amouyel,Jean Ferrières,Pierre Ducimetière,Christopher Patterson,Frank Kee,John Yarnell,Alun Evans +10 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that bilirubin is a novel coronary heart disease risk marker in middle-aged men, with a U-shaped relationship observed between bilirUBin concentration and coronaryHeart disease risk.

TL;DR: A genome-wide association study (GWAS) and meta-analysis to identify genetic loci for activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and prothrombin time (PT) detected and supported by functional data and identified eight genetic locus that account for ∼29% of the variance in aPTT and two loci that accounts for ∼14% ofThe variance in PT.
