Examining the Role of Cardiovascular Markers in the Association Between BMI and Osteoarthritis
Carotid intima-media thickness and diastolic blood pressure were found to have minimal involvement in the mediation of the association between BMI and osteoarthritis.
Severe Renal Arteriosclerosis in Lupus Nephritis Predicts ASCVD
Severe renal arteriosclerosis in diagnostic lupus nephritis biopsies is associated with 9-fold higher odds of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Results of this study contradict the currently held paradigm of stenosis-related CVD risk.
Elevated VCAM-1 Levels Associated With Long-Term Risk of Heart Failure
VCAM-1 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but what is the association of VCAM-1 with development of clinically overt heart failure (HF) across ejection fraction categories?
Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaque Characteristics for Coronary Artery Disease Prognosis
The presence of calcified coronary atherosclerotic plaque morphology was found to predict all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among patients with coronary artery disease.
Periodontal Pathogens Linked to Atherosclerosis in RA
For patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), immunoreactivity against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans serotype b (anti-Aa) and Aa leukotoxin A (anti-LtxA) is associated with atherosclerosis.
