Cardiometabolic diseases are a group of metabolic dysfunctions mainly characterized by insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and central adiposity that are major contributors to increased risk of acute vascular events such as myocardial infarction, heart failure and stroke. Cardiometabolic Diseases: Molecular Basis, Early Detection of Risks, and Management provides detailed information on all aspects of metabolic dysfunctions and associated risks for cardiometabolic diseases, including a thoughtful discussion of cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the progression of metabolic risks, the approaches for the early detection and robust management of metabolic risks.Written by a team of expert contributors, this book is useful reading for researchers and clinicians interested on recent advances in etiology of cardiometabolic diseases, the latest noninvasive approaches for diagnosis, risk assessment tools, therapeutic strategies, and also aspects of prevention of cardiometabolic diseases.- Covers all aspects of cardiometabolic diseases, from cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the development of metabolic risks to clinical practice- Provides established guidelines that facilitate effective management of the independent risk factors that promote vascular diseases- Discusses the use of diagnostic tools to empower patients to self-monitor the progress or regress of modifiable risks
