The cardiovascular implication of single nucleotide polymorphisms of chromosome 9p21 locus among Arab population
( Medknow Publications , 2015 , Article)Background: Based on several reports including genome-wide association studies, genetic variability has been linked with higher (nearly half) susceptibility toward coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to evaluate the ... -

Coronary artery disease (CAD) risk factor analysis in an age-stratified hospital population with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)ObjectivesPatients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at higher risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) particularly at a younger age. We sought to determine the effect of risk factors on the prevalence of CAD in ... -
Diagnosing coronary artery disease by sound analysis from coronary stenosis induced turbulent blood flow: diagnostic performance in patients with stable angina pectoris
( Springer Netherlands / Society for Cardiovascular Imaging , 2016 , Article)Optimizing risk assessment may reduce use of advanced diagnostic testing in patients with symptoms suggestive of stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Detection of diastolic murmurs from post-stenotic coronary turbulence ... -
Does Opium Consumption Have Shared Impact on Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer?
( Academy of Medical Sciences of I.R. Iran , 2022 , Article)Although atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and cancer are seemingly different types of disease, they have multiple shared underlying mechanisms and lifestyle-related risk factors like smoking, unhealthy diet, ... -
Genome-wide polygenic score, clinical risk factors, and long-term trajectories of coronary artery disease
( American Heart Association , 2020 , Article)OBJECTIVE: To determine the relationship of a genome-wide polygenic score for coronary artery disease (GPSCAD) with lifetime trajectories of CAD risk, directly compare its predictive capacity to traditional risk factors, ... -
Total and high molecular weight adiponectin in patients with coronary artery disease
( Wolters Kluwer Health , 2009 , Article)BACKGROUND: Serum adiponectin inversely correlates with the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD). OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical significance of measuring high molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin in addition to ...
