Abstract:
The association between cardiovascular reactivity and the metabolic syndrome, as well as individual metabolic syndrome criterion variables, was investigated in adolescents. Cardiovascular reactivity has been examined as a risk marker or factor in the pathogenesis of hypertension or cardiovascular disease, but few studies have looked at its relationship with the metabolic syndrome. Blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) cardiovascular reactivity to three tasks, evaluated speaking, mirror star tracing, and cold pressor, were assessed in 148 adolescents.

Abstract:
The metabolic syndrome is a cluster of disorders (obesity, dyslipidaemia, hyperinsulinaemia and hypertension) which individually or collectively lead to an increase in the risk of cardiovascular disease. Over the years it has been associated with endothelial dysfunction, raised markers of chronic inflammation, insulin resistance and clotting dysregulation. Studies have shown that the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome in adults over the age of 20 years to be 24%, with approximately 12 million adults within the United Kingdom fulfilling the criteria for diagnosis.

This surge of overweight and obese individuals has driven a dramatic increase in people afflicted with metabolic disorders.

We searched five engines until November 2018 for studies evaluating the effects of PE/E on metabolic and biochemical outcomes after delivery. PE was defined as presence of hypertension and proteinuria at >20 weeks of pregnancy; controls did not have PE/E. Primary outcomes were blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI), metabolic syndrome (MetS), blood lipids and glucose levels. Random effects

Embora a literatura tenha sugerido que o nível de ácido úrico (AU) está associado com hipertensão arterial (HAS) e a síndrome metabólica( SM), esta relação ainda permanece incerta. O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar em uma população brasileira não-hospitalar, a associação entre o AU, a HAS, a SM e variáveis de risco cardiovascular. Este é um estudo transversal realizado em 1005 indivíduos de ambos os gêneros com idade variando entre 20 a 96 anos, que se submeteram a uma avaliação clínica rotineira, onde a pressão arterial (PA), o índice de massa corporal( IMC), a circunferência abdominal( C

Abstract:
A obesidade abdominal já se aproxima de proporções epidêmicas em todo mundo. Estudos sugerem que o acúmulo de gordura intra-abdominal ou visceral (GV) está associado aos fatores de risco (FR) cardiometabólicos. A avaliação da GV é limitada pela falta de métodos confiáveis e de baixo custo. Nosso objetivo foi avaliar a GV medida pela ultrassonografia (US), sua relação com as medidas antropométricas, perfil metabólico e o risco cardiovascular (RCV), e seu papel no diagnóstico da síndrome metabólica (SM). Foram selecionados 148 participantes do projeto Atividade Física na Vila, sendo 113 mulheres

Abstract:
O aumento excessivo de peso corporal acompanhado do acúmulo de gordura visceral eleva o risco de morbidade por hipertensão, diabetes mellitus tipo 2 e doença cardiovascular (DCV). O estresse oxidativo e a inflamação desempenham papel etiológico nestas comorbidades. Neste contexto, os microRNA (miRNA) atuam na regulação pós-transcricional no intuito de manter a homeostase celular sob condições de estresse fisiológico. A expressão de miRNA pode ser modulada por nutrientes e compostos bioativos provenientes da alimentação, atuando sobre processos inflamatórios, reduzindo o risco e/ou atenuando a

Em 2013, a população idosa mundial era de 841 milhões e espera-se que aumente mais de três vezes até 2050. Neste sentido, a expectativa de vida das mulheres tem sido maior do que a dos homens. Apesar das doenças cardiovasculares (DCV) se desenvolverem mais tarde nas mulheres do que nos homens ela ainda é a principal causa de morte em mulheres. Adicionalmente, o aumento do consumo calórico, especialmente carboidratos refinados e frutose, tem sido correlacionado com o aumento de síndrome metabólica (SM).
