UNLABELLED: Women with myocardial ischemia without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) often have microvascular coronary dysfunction (MCD). Traditional cardiac risk factors (RFs) contribute modestly to MCD detected by invasive coronary reactivity testing (CRT). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is...

In vivo insulin sensitivity can be assessed using "open loop" clamp or "closed loop" methods. Open loop clamp methods are static, and fix plasma glucose independently from plasma insulin. Closed loop methods are dynamic, and assess glucose disposal in...

Identifying association under a previous linkage peak on chromosome 16 for body mass index using cross-sectional and longitudinal data of the Framingham Heart Study.

BACKGROUND: Higher muscle mass is associated with better outcomes and longevity in patients with chronic disease states. Imaging studies such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) are among the gold standard methods for assessing body fat and lean body mass...

Weight loss and diabetes are new risk factors for the development of invasive aspergillosis infection in non-immunocompromized humans.

Clinical practice (London, England)

PMID: 29670744
Clin Pract (Lond). 2017;14(5):296-301. doi: 10.4172/clinical-practice.1000125.

Well-established risk factors for aspergillosis include HIV, cancer, recent corticosteroid (prednisone) therapy, chemotherapy, or thoracic surgery. Non-established risk factors may include weight loss and a history of diabetes. Twenty-three patients without the classical risk factors for IA were identified...
