2. The Anaortic Technique with Bilateral Internal Thoracic Artery Grafting - Filling the Gap in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Abstract Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has consolidated its role as the most effective procedure for treating patients with advanced atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, reducing the long-term risk of myocardial infarction and death compared to other therapies and relieving angina. Despite the recognized benefits afforded by surgical myocardial

3. The impact of visceral fat and levels of vitamin D on coronary artery calcification
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: To evaluated calcification of the coronary arteries and its association with visceral fat and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) serum levels. METHODS: A cross sectional study involving 140 individuals without any previous diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. A biochemical analysis of vitamin D serum levels was carried out, as well as compute

4. The rs10455872-G allele of the LPA gene is associated with high lipoprotein(a) levels and increased aortic valve calcium in a Mexican adult population
Abstract Polymorphisms in the LPA gene have been associated with aortic valve calcification (AVC). There are wide differences in the allelic frequencies, Lp(a) levels, and the association with AVC among ethnic groups. The aim of this study was to determine the association of the LPA gene polymorphisms with Lp(a) levels and risk of developing AVC, in Mexican-

5. The Relationship Between Mitral Annular Calcification, Metabolic Syndrome and Thromboembolic Risk
Abstract Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined as an association between diabetes, hypertension, obesity and dyslipidemia and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is associated with several cardiovascular disorders, including coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure, ischemic st

6. Red wine consumption, coronary calcification, and long-term clinical evolution
Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is associated with atherosclerotic complications. However, elevated CAC may not always imply a worse prognosis. Herein, we report the clinical evolution of long-term red wine (RW) drinkers in relation to CAC. We followed 200 healthy male habitual RW drinkers and compared them to 154 abstainers for a period of 5.5 years. Th

7. Avaliação da relação entre metabolismo mineral e doença arterial coronariana em pacientes com função renal preservada / Evaluation of the relationship between mineral metabolism and coronary artery disease in patients with preserved renal function
INTRODUÇÃO: Os níveis séricos de fósforo (P) têm sido associados a doenças cardiovasculares e mortalidade em pacientes com doença renal crônica e na população geral. Estudos in vitro demonstram que altas concentrações de fósforo extracellular são capazes de induzir calcificação vascular e disfunção endotelial. O Fibroblast Growth Factor 23

8. Coronary artery calcification is associated with insulin resistance index in patients with type 1 diabetes
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the risk factors associated with the presence of coronary artery calcification (CAC) in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). A cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 consecutive T1D patients without coronary artery disease, with at least 5 years of diabetes and absence of end-stage renal disease. Mean ag

10. Vascular calcifications seen on mammography: an independent factor indicating coronary artery disease
PURPOSE: Establish a relationship between vascular calcifications seen via mammography and coronary artery disease, estimate the risk ratios, and investigate the interrelationships between vascular calcification and other risk factors for coronary artery disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a case-control study consisting of 40 women with coronary artery

11. Relação entre doenças periodontais e aterosclerose subclínica em indivíduos com hipercolesterolemia familiar / Association between periodontitis and subclinical atherosclerosis in familial hypercholesterolemia individuals
Introduction: Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease with consequent destruction of teeth supporting tissues. It has multifactorial etiology, and its main cause is accumulation of periodontal pathogens on the dental surface. Periodontitis has been associated with the advance of atherosclerosis. Familial hypercholesterolemia patients display premature devel

12. Premature coronary artery calcification is associated with disease duration and bone mineral density in young female systemic lupus erythematosus / Calcificação prematura de artérias coronárias no lúpus eritematoso sistêmico: associação com duração de doença e densidade mineral óssea
Objetivo: Avaliar a relevância de fatores de risco tradicionais para doença cardiovascular (FRC), fatores relacionados ao lúpus e densidade mineral óssea (DMO) na calcificação prematura de artérias coronárias (CAC) em mulheres jovens com lúpus eritematoso sistêmico (LES). Métodos: Noventa e quatro pacientes lúpicas do sexo feminino com duração
