The western diet and lifestyle and diseases of civilization

Abstract: Correspondence: Pedro Carrera-Bastos R. Gorgel do Amaral, No. 5, 1 e; Lisbon 1250-119, Portugal Tel +351 967 088 799 email pedro.carrera_bastos@med.lu.se Abstract: It is increasingly recognized that certain fundamental changes in diet and lifestyle that occurred after the Neolithic Revolution, and especially after the Industrial Revolution and the Modern Age, are too recent, on an evolutionary time scale, for the human genome to have completely adapted. This mismatch between our ancient physiology and the western diet and lifestyle underlies many so-called diseases of civilization, including coronary heart disease, obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, epithelial cell cancers, autoimmune disease, and osteoporosis, which are rare or virtually absent in hunter–gatherers and other non-westernized populations. It is therefore proposed that the adoption of diet and lifestyle that mimic the beneficial characteristics of the preagricultural environment is an effective strategy to reduce the risk of chronic degenerative diseases.

Central aortic blood pressure and augmentation index: comparison between Vasotens ® and SphygmoCor ® technology

Abstract: Correspondence: Anatoliy N Rogoza Cardiology Research Complex, 3rd Cherpkovskaya str, 15a 121552, Moscow, Russian Federation Tel +7 4991490806 Fax +7 8312961415 Email rogoza@24h-monitoring.com Introduction: The aim of this study is the comparison of Vasotens technology as used in a device with an oscillometric method of blood pressure measurement (BPLab, Petr Telegin Ltd, Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Federation) against the validated tonometric system (SphygmoCor, AtCor Medical Pty Ltd, West Ryde, Australia). Methods: The examinations were carried out in two medical centers. Exclusion criteria included atrial fibrillation, severe cardiac anomalies, heart failure, arrhythmia, decompensated diabetes, the presence of an artificial pacemaker, pregnancy, and BMI . 30. Overall, 160 patients and healthy volunteers were examined. Central aortic systolic blood pressure (aSBP) and augmentation index (aAIx) were obtained by means of applanation tonometry and the oscillometric method was compared. Results: aSBP and aAIx measured using the BPLab device equates significantly with the same parameters measured by SphygmoCor. Conclusion: This finding allows the recommendation of Vasotens technology, which can be used with the 24-hour BPLab monitoring system for wide clinical use.

Clinical utility of low-density lipoprotein particle measurement in management of cardiovascular disease: a case report

Abstract: Correspondence: Tara Dall Advanced Lipidology, 524 Milwaukee Street #180, Delafield, WI 53018, USA Tel +1 262 646 3223 Fax +1 262 646 3443 email taradall@advlip.com Abstract: Despite adequate screening and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering therapy, it has been recognized that many patients with low or moderate LDL-C levels experience cardiovascular events. Furthermore, many patients with cardiovascular disease and relatively normal levels of LDL-C have increased levels of low-density lipoprotein particles (LDL-P). The purpose of this case report is to illustrate the importance of LDL-P in the surprising presentation of vascular disease in a woman who had a high concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). By utilizing lipoprotein information, patients can be appropriately selected to receive suitable medication, leading to better health outcomes.
