Methods for determining the metabolism of sugars and fats in an individual

Provided herein are methods for determining the metabolism of one or more sugars and / or fatty acids, and applications thereof. Such applications include determining the rate of glycogen synthesis and glycolysis, which are believed to be early markers for predicting elevated risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Other applications include methods for screening drugs that effect sugar and / or fatty acid metabolism. The methods are useful for at least partially characterizing drugs for desirable or undesirable (toxic) characteristics. Drugs that are at least partially characterized using the methods of the invention can then be further developed in pre-clinical testing and clinical trials. Such drugs may be found to be useful in treating obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other disorders of metabolism.

Blood pressure monitor and cardiovascular disease risk analyzing program

A blood pressure monitor associates information representing measuring time input from a clock with measured blood pressure values so as to store them in a memory. Blood pressure values measured in a morning time zone and blood pressure values measured in an evening time zone are grouped based on the time information associated with the blood pressure values so as to be stored in the memory. A data intra-group average calculating section calculates averages of the blood pressure values in the groups, and a risk calculating section calculates a risk value based on the calculated results of the data intra-group average calculating section.

Phosphorylcholine Conjugates and Corresponding Antibodies

IgG and IgM autoantibody levels against phosphorylcholine in subjects with hypertension (diastolic pressure>95 mmHg) were determined at baseline in order to determine the importance of antibodies for the development of atherosclerosis. The results show that increases in intima-media thickness (IMT) at a follow-up four years after baseline were significantly less prevalent in subjects having high IgM autoantibodies to phosphorylcholine. The presence or absence of IgM autoantibodies against phosphorylcholine is thus related to an increased or decreased risk of developing ischemic cardiovascular diseases. A method to determine IgM antibodies toward phosphorylcholine is proposed in this invention to identify subjects at risk of developing ischemic cardiovascular diseases. Animal experiments show that medium to high levels of IgM antibodies can be detected in plasma after active immunization with a keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH)-phosphorylcholine conjugate. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a phosphorylcholine conjugate (active immunization) or a monoclonal antibody with specificity to a phosphorylcholine conjugate (passive immunization) is proposed and the use of these compositions as active or passive immunogens in the treatment or prevention of atherosclerosis.

Large data cardiovascular disease risk monitoring system

The invention discloses a large data cardiovascular disease risk monitoring system. According to the system, personal information (including age, sex, blood pressure, height, weight, obesity index and the like) of health examinations, physical examinations and hospital treatment, and test data of blood routine, blood biochemistry and myocardial enzymes are used for monitoring the cardiovascular disease risk. The invention belongs to the application of large data in the field of health care, and further belongs to the crossing technical field of large data and health care. The invention aims at providing a simple, easy, practical and accurate cardiovascular risk monitoring system. The current monitoring of the cardiovascular disease risk is achieved mostly by enquiring a small sample amount of data collected by a questionnaire method such as disease history, family history and major risk factors for the cardiovascular disease and through the data of blood sugar collected by an instrument, total cholesterol and the like. The monitoring is controlled and managed by medical institutions and doctors so that users can not carry out the monitoring of the cardiovascular disease risk by themselves. Due to the fact that epidemiological features of a cardiovascular disease spectrum and risk factors in Chinese population are significantly different from the epidemiological features in western developed countries. The existing risk assessment tools in Europe and America are not suitable for the Chinese population. With the help of a large data value extraction technology, the large data cardiovascular disease risk monitoring system can monitor the cardiovascular disease risk for users and doctors and provide hope for human to monitor the cardiovascular disease risk by themselves and conquer the cardiovascular disease.
