Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetes in Hispanic American youth: prevalence, incidence, demographics, and clinical characteristics: the SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth Study.
Jean M. Lawrence,Elizabeth J. Mayer-Davis,Kristi Reynolds,Jennifer Beyer,David J. Pettitt,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Santica M. Marcovina,Giuseppina Imperatore,Richard F. Hamman +8 more
TL;DR: Factors such as poor glycemic control, elevated lipids, and a high prevalence of overweight and obesity may put Hispanic youth with type 1 and type 2 diabetes at risk for future diabetes-related complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the Associations of Apolipoprotein B and Non-High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol With Other Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With the Metabolic Syndrome in the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study
TL;DR: APoB is a better candidate risk parameter than NHDLC for identifying a subgroup of individuals with or without MetS with elevated cardiovascular risk, and is more closely associated with central adiposity, insulin resistance, thrombosis, and inflammation than N HDLC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronary artery calcification in type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance: the framingham offspring study.
James B. Meigs,Martin G. Larson,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Daniel Levy,Melvin E. Clouse,David M. Nathan,Peter W.F. Wilson,Christopher J. O'Donnell +7 more
TL;DR: In age- and sex-adjusted models, subjects with insulin resistance were more likely to have subclinical atherosclerosis than those without insulin resistance, but further risk factor adjustment weakened this association.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antecedent blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular disease: the Framingham Heart Study .
Ramachandran S. Vasan,Joseph M. Massaro,Peter W.F. Wilson,Sudha Seshadri,Philip A. Wolf,Daniel Levy,Ralph B. D'Agostino +6 more
TL;DR: Antecedent BP is an important determinant of future risk of CVD events above and beyond current BP, and use of long-term average BP may improve the prognostic utility of conventional CVD risk prediction that is based on current BP.
Journal ArticleDOI
An International Model to Predict Recurrent Cardiovascular Disease
Peter W.F. Wilson,Ralph B. D'Agostino,Deepak L. Bhatt,Kim A. Eagle,Michael J. Pencina,Sidney C. Smith,Mark J. Alberts,Jean Dallongeville,Shinya Goto,Alan T. Hirsch,Chiau Suong Liau,E. Magnus Ohman,Joachim Röther,Christopher M. Reid,Jean-Louis Mas,Ph. Gabriel Steg +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, a developmental prediction model was estimated from 33,419 randomly selected participants (2394 cardiovascular events with 1029 cardiovascular deaths) from the pool of 49,689.
