Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCardiac Patients’ Causal Attributions for Coronary Heart DiseaseLeila Gholizadeh, Yenna Salamonson, Mehrdad Heydari, Patricia M. DavidsonAccurate casual attributions for CHD have been associated with more congruent risk reduction behaviours and improved health outcomes. This article aimed to assess causal attributions for Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) of Middle Eastern women diagnosed with heart disease using different risk targets and compare these attributions with participants’ actual. Using a survey methodology, 121 female patients in cardiac units of … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2013 · 6,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleTotal Level of Serum Homocysteine in Males and Females with Coronary Heart Disease of Different Age GroupsFaisal I. Mohammad, Sally Awawdeh, Akram Saleh, Nabil A. BashirProblem statement: Elevated plasma total homocysteine concentration is a risk factor of cardiovascular disease. Total homocysteine level is a strong predictor of mortality in-patient with an angiographically confirmed Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), so we want to know at what age in males and females elevated homocysteine will be significantly elevated and this will help for better management and prognosis by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,540 accessesView PDFCite
