In recent years, a growing body of research has demonstrated that an individual's fitness
level is a strong and independent marker of risk for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. In …

The EUROASPIRE audits of risk factor control have indicated that, even in those with
established coronary heart disease, risk factor control remains poor. We therefore analysed …

Clinical predictors of long-term outcomes in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) treated
with endovascular therapy (EVT) remain unclear. In this study, clinical predictors of long …

Treating cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, including dyslipidemia, is important in
HIV care. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) target achievement is a readily …

Background We investigated the association of process of care measures with adverse limb
and systemic events in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Methods We …

The various risk factors for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) are almost identical to those for
atherosclerosis and include abnormal levels of lipids or lipoproteins. Lipid peroxidation …

Objectives Previous studies have demonstrated gaps in achievement of low-density
lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) goals among patients at very high cardiovascular risk. We …

BACKGROUND: LDL-cholesterol therapeutic objectives attainment under lipid lowering
therapy remains inadequate. The correlates of LDL-cholesterol therapeutic objective …

Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is associated with increased mortality. Lower
extremity (LE) revascularization improves symptoms, but less is known about long‐term …

Background The SUrvey of Risk Factors (SURF) indicated poor control of risk factors in
subjects with established coronary heart disease (CHD). The present study aimed to …
