Endothelial dysfunction occurs after myocardial ischemia and reperfusion characterized by
a marked reduction in endothelium‐dependent relaxation (EDR) due to reduced release or …

Given the potentially large number of markers that may have been investigated, we carried
out a staged search strategy. First, we performed a general search to identify biomarkers that …

High blood pressure is a highly heritable and modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
We report the largest genetic association study of blood pressure traits (systolic, diastolic …

Background—Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous competitive inhibitor
of nitric oxide (NO) synthase. Because endothelial NO elaboration is impaired in …

We provide anatomic and functional evidence that nicotine induces angiogenesis. We also
show that nicotine accelerates the growth of tumor and atheroma in association with …

Background— An endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase, asymmetric dimethylarginine
(ADMA), is elevated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). This study explored the …

Background—Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) is an endogenous inhibitor of nitric
oxide synthase (NOS). Plasma levels of ADMA are elevated in individuals with …

Background Hyperhomocysteinemia is a putative risk factor for cardiovascular disease,
which also impairs endothelium-dependent vasodilatation. A number of other risk factors for …

We investigated type 2 diabetes (T2D) genetic susceptibility via multi-ancestry meta-analysis
of 228,499 cases and 1,178,783 controls in the Million Veteran Program (MVP), DIAMANTE…
