TL;DR: Genome-wide association studies have identified 11 common variants convincingly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), a modest number considering the apparent heritability of CAD(8) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors assessed the association between long-term exposure to multiple air pollens and the incidence of cerebrovascular events, and found that exposure to air pollution was associated with increased risk of stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurements of carotid intima-media thickness and of interadventitia common carotid diameter improve prediction of cardiovascular events: results of the IMPROVE (Carotid Intima Media Thickness [IMT] and IMT-Progression as Predictors of Vascular Events in a High Risk European Population) study.

TL;DR: A risk stratification strategy based on C-IMT and ICCAD as an adjunct to FRFs is a rational approach to prevention of cardiovascular disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Circulating Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) Predicts Future Risk of Cardiovascular Events Independently of Established Risk Factors.
Karin Leander,Anders Mälarstig,Ferdinand M. van't Hooft,Craig L. Hyde,Mai-Lis Hellénius,Jason S. Troutt,Robert J. Konrad,John Öhrvik,Anders Hamsten,Ulf de Faire +9 more
TL;DR: Serum PCSK9 concentration is associated with future risk of CVD even after adjustments for established CVD risk factors, and further studies are needed to confirm this observation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low levels of IgM antibodies to phosphorylcholine predict cardiovascular disease in 60-year old men: effects on uptake of oxidized LDL in macrophages as a potential mechanism.
Ulf de Faire,Ulf de Faire,Jun Su,Xiang Hua,Anna G. Frostegård,Mats Halldin,Mai-Lis Hellénius,Max Wikström,Ingrid Dahlbom,Hans Grönlund,Johan Frostegård +10 more
TL;DR: Low IgM anti-PC could be a novel risk marker for CVD among men and one possible mechanism could be inhibition of uptake of oxLDL in macrophages.
