Polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and angiotesinogen (AGT) genes and their associations with blood pressure and carotid artery intima media thickness among healthy Finnish young adults--the Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study.
Md. Shaheenul Islam,Terho Lehtimäki,Markus Juonala,Mika Kähönen,Nina Hutri-Kähönen,Katariina Kainulainen,Helena E. Miettinen,Leena Taittonen,Kimmo Kontula,Jorma Viikari,Olli T. Raitakari +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that ACE I/D and AGT m235t polymorphisms are not associated with carotid IMT in healthy young Finnish adults.
Levels of asymmetrical dimethylarginine are predictive of brachial artery flow-mediated dilation 6 years later
Hannu Päivä,M. Kahonen,Terho Lehtimäki,G. Alfthan,Jorma Viikari,Reijo Laaksonen,N. Hutri-Kähönen,Tomi Laitinen,L. Taittonen,Olli T. Raitakari,Markus Juonala +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated whether plasma ADMA levels are predictive of brachial artery endothelial function in a prospective setting, and they found that baseline ADMA had a significant inverse association with FMD measured 6 years later (β±SE: -1.89±0.69%, P=0.006).
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations between connexin37 gene polymorphism and markers of subclinical atherosclerosis : The Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns study
Auni Collings,Md. Shaheenul Islam,Markus Juonala,Riikka Rontu,Mika Kähönen,Nina Hutri-Kähönen,Tomi Laitinen,Jukka Marniemi,Jorma Viikari,Olli T. Raitakari,Terho Lehtimäki +10 more
TL;DR: The connexin37 C1019T polymorphism is not related with markers of subclinical atherosclerosis in young adults and no significant association between the cx37 polymorphism and carotid IMT, CAC or brachial artery FMD was found.
Journal ArticleDOI
IL‐18 gene polymorphism, cardiovascular mortality and coronary artery disease
Jussi Hernesniemi,Kaisa Anttila,Tuomo Nieminen,Mika Kähönen,Nina Mononen,Kjell Nikus,Väinö Turjanmaa,Jari Viik,Rami Lehtinen,Terho Lehtimäki +9 more
TL;DR: Eur J Clin Invest 2010; 40 (11): 994–1001.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endoglin, VEGF, and its receptors in predicting metastases in endometrial carcinoma.
Sami Kristian Saarelainen,Synnöve Staff,Nina Peltonen,Terho Lehtimäki,Jorma Isola,Paula Kujala,Maarit Vuento,Johanna Mäenpää +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that preoperative serum VEGF concentration correlates with the presence of metastases in endometrioid endometrial carcinoma, and the immunohistochemical expression of angiogenic markers was not associated with any of the clinicopathological features of the tumors.
