Nitrate-nitrite-nitrosamines exposure and the risk of type 1 diabetes: A review of current data.
(2016-Oct)
The potential toxic effects of nitrate-nitrite-nitrosamine on pancreatic β cell have remained a controversial issue over the past two decades. In this study, we reviewed epidemiological studies investigated the associations ...
Trend of cardiovascular risk factors in the older Iranian population: 2002-2014.
(2017-Aug)
Current study aimed to investigate the sex-stratified secular trend of cardiovascular disease risk factors among an older population in Iran during a median follow-up period of 8.76 years.
Obesity Paradox and Recurrent Coronary Heart Disease in a Population-Based Study: Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study.
(2016-Apr)
Although current data shows a positive association between obesity and development of coronary heart disease (CHD) in general population, there is limited data on the important protective role of central or general obesity ...
Sex-specific incidence rates and risk factors of premature cardiovascular disease. A long term follow up of the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study.
(2017-Jan)
To investigate the risk factors for premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) and to quantify their population attributable fractions (PAFs) among an Iranian population during a median follow-up of 12years.
The hypertriglyceridemic waist and waist-to-height ratio phenotypes and chronic kidney disease: Cross-sectional and prospective investigations.
We investigated the association between two hypertriglyceridemic waist (HW) and waist-to height ratio (HWHtR) phenotypes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) using cross sectional and prospective analysis.
The association between changes in blood pressure components and incident cardiovascular diseases.
(2017-Dec)
To determine the association of changes in blood pressure (BP) components between baseline examination (1999-2001) and a second visit (2002-2005) with incident cardiovascular diseases (CVD).
Classification-based data mining for identification of risk patterns associated with hypertension in Middle Eastern population: A 12-year longitudinal study.
(2016-Aug)
Hypertension is a critical public health concern worldwide. Identification of risk factors using traditional multivariable models has been a field of active research. The present study was undertaken to identify risk ...
Exploring risk patterns for incident ischemic stroke during more than a decade of follow-up: A survival tree analysis.
(2017-Aug)
The burden of stroke is increasing in low to middle income countries. Identifying risk patterns for ischemic stroke (IS) can help develop individualized preventive measures for at risk populations.
A new look at risk patterns related to coronary heart disease incidence using survival tree analysis: 12 Years Longitudinal Study.
(2017-Jun)
We identified risk patterns associated with incident coronary heart disease (CHD) using survival tree, and compared performance of survival tree versus Cox proportional hazards (Cox PH) in a cohort of Iranian adults. Data ...
Sex-specific clustering of metabolic risk factors and their association with incident cardiovascular diseases: A population-based prospective study.
(2017-Aug)
We identified distinct patterns of metabolic risk factors (MRF), and examined their association with subsequent cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.
