Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Patients with cardiovascular risk factors who fast Ramadan
Stable clinical and biochemical parameters before Ramadan fasting
 Biological: biochemical parameters

patients will be collected for analysis of blood standard examinations such as blood glucose, electrolytes (potassium, sodium, magnesium calcium), renal function and also the blood count, platelet aggregation.

All these tests should be practice before, during and after Ramadan fasting for comparison.
