Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Angelique K Salloum"
- Angelique K Salloum's recent research primarily focuses on the genetic underpinnings of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes within the Lebanese population, utilizing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify specific genetic variants linked to conditions such as coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
- Her findings highlight the identification of novel susceptibility alleles for severe coronary artery stenosis and significant associations between low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and genetic risk factors, underscoring the importance of genetic influences on lipid profiles and cardiovascular health.
- Salloum's work also emphasizes the interconnections between various health conditions, such as gestational diabetes and macrosomia contributing to diabetes risk, and explores lifestyle factors like caffeine intake in relation to metabolic syndrome components, thereby advancing the understanding of multifactorial disease mechanisms in her population.
