Learn more »An international multicenter case-control cohort study suggested that high density 1K plaque (the volume of plaque with more than 1000 Hounsfield unit) detected by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is associated with lower risk of future occurrence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The study included 189 patients who experienced vs […]
A US prospective cohort study suggested that unhealthy low-carbohydrate-diet and low-fat-diet scores were associated with higher total mortality, whereas healthy low-carbohydrate-diet and low-fat-diet scores were associated with lower total mortality. The study included 37 233 adults 20 years or older (mean age 49.7; 52.6% female) with 24-hour dietary recall data […]
Sex-specific analyses of longitudinal BP measures in US cohort studies indicate that blood pressure (BP) measures progress more rapidly in women than in men, beginning early in life. The analyses included 32 833 participants (54% female) spanning ages 5 to 98 years from 1971 to 2014 in 4 community-based US cohort […]
A Canadian cohort study revealed that overweight and obese significantly influences blood levels of common laboratory markers, most notably liver enzymes, lipids/lipoproteins, inflammatory markers and uric acid, in children and adolescents. The study included 1,332 healthy subjects ages 5.1-19.0 years with body mass index (BMI) ranging from 13.4-65.0 kg/m2. Levels […]
A Chinese prospective cohort study concluded that long sleep duration, long midday napping, and poor sleep quality were independently and jointly associated with higher risks of incident stroke. Persistently long sleep duration or switch from average to long sleep duration increased the risk of stroke. The study included 31,750 retirees […]
A meta-analysis suggested that use of beta-blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) in patients receiving cancer treatment linked to less heart damage. For every ten patients treated with the drugs, one case of cardiotoxicity could be avoided. The meta-analysis included 9 randomized controlled trials […]
An US 2nd phase randomized clinical trial revealed that maintenance of antidepressant medication treatment was associated with a reduced risk of depressive recurrence, but previous treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) was not. The study included a total of 292 adult outpatients (171 women; mean age, 45.1 years) with chronic […]
A multinational risk-evaluation and risk-modelling study suggests that non-HDL cholesterol concentrations in blood are strongly associated with long-term risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD), and highlights the potential benefit of early lipid-lowering strategies. The study identified 398 846 individuals in 38 cohorts (48·7% women; median age 51·0 years, without prevalent CVD […]
Dr. Bermanand Dr. Boguskisummarized the risk factors for falls in the elderly and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Risk factors for falls include lower body weakness; past history of a fall; difficulties with walking and balance; use of medicines, such as tranquilizers, sedatives, or antidepressants and medicines affect balance; vision problems; […]
An international randomized trial revealed that an initial invasive approach compared to optimal medical therapy (OMT) in stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) patients with moderate-severe ischemia did not reduce risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) end points at a median of 3.3 years. The trial enrolled 5179 SIHD patients with moderate-severe ischemia […]
