Food Intake Patterns May Explain the High Prevalence of Cardiovascular Risk Factors among Iranian Women
TL;DR: Eating patterns of this Middle Eastern population might explain the higher prevalence of some cardiovascular risk factors in this region, however, these findings need to be confirmed in other Middle Eastern countries.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Evidence still exists that high intensity exercise may not be as effective as low intensity exercise in reducing elevated blood pressures, and Ambulatory technology may allow advances in individualising a more effective exercise prescription for low-responder and non-responders.

TL;DR: Ex + WL is an effective treatment for hyperinsulinemia and lowering of diastolic BP in patients with the syndrome X, and results suggest that the effects of a 6-month intervention involving either aerobic exercise training alone or exercise combined with a structured weight loss program on CHD risk factors associated with syndrome X are evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aldosterone as a mediator of progressive renal disease: Pathogenetic and clinical implications
TL;DR: Experimental evidence shows that selective blockade of aldosterone, independent of renin-angiotensin blockade, reduces proteinuria and nephrosclerosis in the spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone rat model and reducesproteinuria and glomerulos sclerosis in the subtotally nephrectomized rat model.
