Age-related macular degeneration and cardiovascular disease in US population: an observational study
CONCLUSIONS: Within this study, preventing the development of AMD might cut down the incidence of several CVDs, in particular, significantly lowering the stroke risk. These findings indicate that interventions to prevent AMD may also help to prevent CVDs. In general, late AMD has a more severe impact on the risk of CVDs compared with early AMD. These results could help clinical ophthalmology and cardiovascular medicine in their clinical education and interventions.PMID:38126346 | DOI:10.1080/00015385.2023.2295103 (Source: Acta Cardiologica)

Left atrial strain in patients after arterial switch operation for transposition of the great arteries
CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that in TGA patients after ASO repair LA strain is impaired and correlates with LA size and LV function. However, impaired LA strain wasn't associated with the standard CPET parameters. As such, clinical significance needs to be further unravelled.PMID:38126324 | DOI:10.1080/00015385.2023.2296261 (Source: Acta Cardiologica)

Development and validation of a risk prediction model for postoperative gastrointestinal complications in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery
CONCLUSIONS: This study developed a reliable prediction model of GICs after aortic arch surgery. This prediction model had been well verified in our research centre, and further external verification was required before it can be recommended for clinical application.PMID:38095548 | DOI:10.1080/00015385.2023.2289716 (Source: Acta Cardiologica)

The association of < em > Sort1 < /em > expression with LDL subfraction and inflammation in patients with coronary artery disease
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings reveal that the high Sort1 gene expression has a prominent linear relationship with both the atherogenic LDL phenotype and proinflammation, thereby might contribute to the occurrence of CAD.PMID:38095557 | DOI:10.1080/00015385.2023.2285534 (Source: Acta Cardiologica)
