PREDIABETES AND THE RISK FOR CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE

Prevention and Early Detection of Cancer: Introduction
Improved understanding of carcinogenesis has allowed cancer prevention and early detection (also known as cancer control) to expand beyond the identification and avoidance of<[r]

Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), such as abuse, household dysfunction, and neglect, have been shown to increase adults’ risk of developing chronic conditions and risk factors for chronic conditions, including cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Colorectal cancer is the 4th common cancer in China. Most colorectal cancers are due to modifiable lifestyle factors, but few studies have provided a systematic evidence-based assessment of the burden of colorectal cancer incidence and mortality attributable to the known risk factors in China.

The strengths of the current investigation include its relatively large population which allowed for precise
estimation of colorectal cancer risk associated with a history of colorectal and prostate cancer among immedi- ate family memb[r]

Universal screening of children for dyslipidemia and other cardiovascular risk factors has been recommended. Given the clustering of cardiovascular risk factors within families, one benefit of screening adolescents may be to identify “at-risk” families in which adult members might also be at elevate[r]

Cardiovascular disease and risk factors for it
CVD was defined as a verified medical history of coronary, cer- ebral or peripheral arterial disease. Coronary artery disease included a history of myocardial infarction, [r]

The prevalence of child and adolescent obesity and severe obesity continues to increase despite decades of policy and research aimed at prevention. Obesity strongly predicts cardiovascular and metabolic disease risk; both begin in childhood.

Colorectal cancer survivors are not only at risk for recurrent disease but also at increased risk of comorbidities such as other cancers, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension and functional decline. In this trial, we aim at investigating whether a diet in accordance with the Norwegian food[r]

Adolescents with overweight and obesity report various motivations for weight loss other than the desire for better health. However, there is little evidence regarding the main motivations for weight loss in adolescents. The present systematic review aimed to identify the motivations for weight loss[r]

Case reports, retrospective analyses, and observational studies have linked the use of cisplatin to increased risk of second cancers, especially life-threatening secondary leukemia. We therefore performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the risk of second cancers associated with re[r]

The disease rendered wide spread devastation in the Sub Region causing the death of several thousands of infected cases before it was subsequently brought under control, draining significant resources. This study reviewed existing literature using the PRISMA statement for reporting systematic review[r]

The volume-outcome relationship is supposed to be stronger in high risk, low volume procedures. The aim of this systematic review is to examine the available literature on the effects of hospital and surgeon volume, specialization and regionalization on the outcomes of the Norwood procedure.

Anterior cranial fossa (ACF) dural arteriovenous fistulae (DAVFs) are rare, and a systematic review of the literature is lacking. Such a review is necessary, however, so a systematic PubMed search of related studies was performed.

Network meta-analysis
Due to recent developments in meta-analytical methods a new procedure has become available to synthesize evi- dence from direct and indirect comparisons of interven- tions, which allows the assessment of the relative effectiveness [r]

The study focused on the impact of the short-term and long-term financial risk on systematic risks through analyzing 120 corporations listed in the international and emerging stock exchange markets of the United States, Germany, South Korea, and Egypt, (30 corporations from each country). The variab[r]

Multimodality treatment improves the chance of survival but increases the risk for long-term side effects in young cancer survivors, so-called” Adolescents and Young Adults“(AYAs). Compared to the general population AYAs have a 5 to 15-fold increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity. Thus, improving[r]

The treatment of aneurysms associated with moyamoya disease (MMD) is difficult for neurosurgeons, and little is known of strategy options. This report constitutes a comprehensive review of the literature.

Immediate intervention
HTH case-management intervention was based on the lat- est guidelines for the management of CHD risk factors, particularly those reflecting cholesterol management [22,23], hypertension [24], physical activity [25], diabetes [26], aspirin th[r]

such as heterocyclic amines (HA) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) which should be taken into account.
Processed meat intake
Most of the relatively few cohort studies showing results on processed meat intake and GC risk have found no association b[r]

: Kawasaki disease (KD) causes coronary artery lesions (CAL) and is the leading cause of acquired heart disease in children. The aim of this study is to evaluate the risk factors and set-up a scoring system for predicting CAL of KD.
