Landmesser, U. & Harrison, D.G. Oxidant stress as a marker for cardiovascular events Ox marks the spot.
Many studies have shown high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to be a leading marker for cardiovascular disease.
de Zeeuw, D., Parving, H. H. & Henning, R. H. Microalbuminuria as an early marker for cardiovascular disease.
In this review, the multiple roles of resistin as screening, diagnostic, and prognostic marker for cardiovascular disease are discussed.
CRP is not only a strong marker for cardiovascular morbidity but a modulator that suppresses local and systemic thromboregulatory pathways.
Inflammation is intimately involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and is accurately measured by high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), a sensitive marker for cardiovascular disease.
However, included studies usually considered changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure as a marker for cardiovascular responses.
Study leader Muhammad Amer, an assistant professor in the Division of General Internal Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, says his findings show that increasing levels of vitamin D in the blood are linked with lower levels of a popular marker for cardiovascular inflammation: c-reactive protein, also known as CRP.
Further, a recent study in the American Journal of Physiology suggests that lack of flexibility might even be linked to a known marker for cardiovascular disease and the risk for heart attack and stroke: arterial stiffness.
In the United States, Selvin et al. [7] found individuals with A1C values of 6% or higher were at higher risk of developing diabetes and that A1C was a marker for cardiovascular disease.
While the "good" HDL was significantly lowered (Figure 3b, left panel), the concentration of VLDL, a risk marker for cardiovascular diseases [18], [19], was significantly increased (Figure 3b, right panel).
