Introduction: Polyphenols have been suggested as being able to modulate the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects are unclear and the literature lacks consistency and reproducibility, with in vitro...

Studies investigating atherothrombotic risk in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in particular platelet function and carotid intima-media wall thickness (cIMT), have been confounded by not adequately accounting for obesity. Liraglutide is... Read More about GLP-1R, a novel receptor in platelets; and the use of liraglutide in the treatment of obesity in women with PCOS.

Effect of non-esterified fatty acids on insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk in polycystic ovary syndrome (2013)
Thesis
Aye, M. M. (2013). Effect of non-esterified fatty acids on insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk in polycystic ovary syndrome. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4215486

Introduction: Insulin resistance (IR) and obesity coexist in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and contribute to increased risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. An intrinsic insulin signalling defect is present in skeletal muscle of PCOS and it...

The effects of polyphenol rich chocolate on cardiovascular risk and glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus (2013)
Thesis
Mellor, D. D. (2013). The effects of polyphenol rich chocolate on cardiovascular risk and glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214543

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterised by increased rates of morbidity and mortality, much of which is related to cardiovascular disease. T2DM is considered to be a non-communicable disease, with its cause and aetiology linked...

An evaluation of factors that affect glycaemic control and its measurements in diabetes mellitus (2010)
Thesis
Ng, J. M. (2010). An evaluation of factors that affect glycaemic control and its measurements in diabetes mellitus. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4210961

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex and challenging disorder for the health care provider. Delayed detection and poor glycaemic control are both associated with a significant increase in the risk of patient morbidity and mortality. With almost 1 in 2...
