Overview

Cardiovascular disease risk refers to the likelihood of developing disorders of the heart and blood vessels, estimated from the combined contribution of modifiable and non-modifiable factors including hypertension, dyslipidaemia, diabetes, smoking, obesity, physical inactivity, and genetic predisposition. Risk stratification uses validated tools such as the Framingham risk score together with biomarkers, imaging measures, and increasingly genetic and computational analyses, supporting prevention and early intervention. Research relevant to this area examines racial and ethnic differences in Framingham risk score within an NHANES cohort, the association of vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms with dyslipidaemia in coronary artery disease, and bioinformatic analysis of coronary-disease-associated SNPs and genes implicated in atherosclerosis. Allied work addresses the mediating role of depressive symptoms in the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and health conservation in diabetic elderly people, hypertension in women, the management of metabolic syndrome with antioxidant micronutrients, and polymorphisms linked to coronary heart disease risk. These studies integrate clinical epidemiology, genetics, bioinformatics, and preventive cardiology to clarify how risk factors and their molecular correlates contribute to cardiovascular disease. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research on cardiovascular risk, its genetic and metabolic determinants, and its intersection with diabetes.
