Objective: To determine the relationship between insulin resistance (IR) and atheroma burden in Pakistanis.
Methods: A prospective case-control study of 400 patients selected for the presence/absence of angiographic disease. Coronary atheroma burden was quantified and IR and cardiovascular risk factors were measured.
Background: Metabolic syndrome (M-IRS) is common in Asians. This study investigated the relationship of two definitions of M-IRS to atherosclerosis in Indian Asians with suspected coronary arterial disease (CAD).
Methods: 400 patients with chest pain selected for the presence or absence of angiographic disease were recruited from a tertiary referral centre in Pakistan into a prospective case-control study.
Background: Erectile dysfunction is related to endothelial function. Cardiovascular risk factors determine endothelial function. Sildenafil is effective in treatment of erectile dysfunction but shows variable results.

Subjects: Four hundred individuals with chest pain; 200 with angiographic disease matched with 200 without occlusive disease.
Design: A prospective case-control study.
Background: Erectile dysfunction is related to penile arterial endothelial nitric oxide production. Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and E-selectin are often considered plasma markers of endothelial function.
Objective: This study investigated the relationship between these plasma markers and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with erectile dysfunction.
