Cardiovascular Diseases and Decline in Cognitive Function in an Elderly Community Population
Objective: To investigate cognitive performance and 4-year change in cognitive function in relation to different clinical manifestations of atherosclerotic disease in an elderly community population. Methods: The Edinburgh Artery Study is a population cohort study of men and women who were recruited to a baseline survey in 1987 and 1988. From the time of study entry, the participants have been invited to two follow-up clinical examinations and co…
Personality and Social Predictors of Atherosclerotic Progression
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine whether personality traits and social factors predict the progression of peripheral atherosclerosis. Progression was assessed using the objective, noninvasive ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI). METHODS: In the Edinburgh Artery Study, 1592 men and women were randomly sampled from the general population, and their ABPI was measured at baseline and at the end of a 5-year follow-up period. A low AB…
Physical activity and risk of peripheral arterial disease in the general population
STUDY OBJECTIVE--To determine associations between physical activity at age 35-45 years with peripheral arterial disease and cardiovascular risk factors at age 55-74 years. DESIGN--Cross sectional survey of the general population--Edinburgh Artery Study. The presence of peripheral arterial disease was determined using the WHO/Rose questionnaire on intermittent claudication, and the ankle brachial pressure index at rest and during reactive hyperae…
Maxcy-Rosenau-Last Public Health and Preventive Medicine
This is stirring stuff, riding on the swell of the "new NHS".In the third section, however, David Morell conducts a scholarly and scathing dissection of the recent changes in GP contracts, leading directly into Denis Pereira Gray's well considered case for much increased academic support for general practice.David Jewell, Tom O'Dowd and A D Wilson, and Richard Baker outline the enormous benefits which would arise from increased support-new and mo…
