550 Capstone Cases (co CAPSTONE CASE B: CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE By Steven T. Fleming Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in most developed countries. The Framingham study and many others have contributed to a rich literature linking a number of risk factors, such as obesity, high cholesterol, and smoking, to this disease. "Each year the American Heart Association (AHA), in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, and...

Title: Multifactorial intervention with nurse practitioners does not change cardiovascular outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease. Strict implementation of guidelines directed at multiple targets reduces vascular risk in diabetic patients. Whether this also applies to patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is uncertain. To evaluate this, the MASTERPLAN Study randomized 788 patients with CKD (estimated GFR 20–70ml/min) to receive additional intensive nurse practitioner support (the intervention group) or nephrologist care (the control group). The primary end point was a...

United States, and causes more serious long-term disabilities than
any other disease. Older people are at higher risk. You can take
steps to lower your chance of having a stroke.
