Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Stroke: A Mendelian Randomization Study
CONCLUSION: This study suggested that the potential causal effect of NAFLD on ischemic stroke may be confined to the LAA and SVO subtypes.PMID:35147274 | DOI:10.1111/ene.15277

NAFLD increases Risk of Carotid Atherosclerosis and Ischemic Stroke. An Updated Meta-Analysis with 135,602 Individuals
CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis shows that a stepwise increment of steatosis of NAFLD can significantly increase the odds of carotid atherosclerosis and stroke development in NAFLD. More than a third suffer from carotid atherosclerosis and routine assessment of carotid atherosclerosis is quintessential in NAFLD.PMID:35232007 | DOI:10.3350/cmh.2021.0406

Correlation Between Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
CONCLUSION: CIMT is increased in NAFLD patients. Increase in CIMT is significantly correlated with increasing grades of NAFLD. Hence CIMT can be used as screening tests in NALFD patients to assess cardiovascular risks.PMID:35443534

Reply Effects of Habitual Coffee Consumption on Vascular Function
We thank Dr. Siasos and colleagues for pointing out that habitual coffee consumption has been associated with improved endothelial function in elderly inhabitants of Ikaria Island (1). The improvement in endothelial function may in part account for the associations of moderate coffee intake (about 2 to 4 cups daily) with lower risks for coronary heart disease and stroke (2). Indeed, even in the setting of endothelium damage, coffee has the ability to prevent arterial thrombus formation, a benefit that is independent of its caffeine content (3). Recent studies also indicate that moderate daily coffee intake may confer pro...

Added Sugars and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Children: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association.
CONCLUSIONS: Associations between added sugars and increased cardiovascular disease risk factors among US children are present at levels far below current consumption levels. Strong evidence supports the association of added sugars with increased cardiovascular disease risk in children through increased energy intake, increased adiposity, and dyslipidemia. The committee found that it is reasonable to recommend that children consume ≤25 g (100 cal or ≈6 teaspoons) of added sugars per day and to avoid added sugars for children <2 years of age. Although added sugars most likely can be safely consumed in low amounts as ...

The impact of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease fibrosis score on cardiac prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure
AbstractLiver abnormalities have a strong impact on clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF), and are known as cardio-hepatic syndrome. The non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) fibrosis score (NFS) has been developed to identify liver fibrosis in patients with NAFLD. It remains to be determined whether NFS is associated with cardiovascular prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). We calculated NFS in 516 patients with CHF admitted to our hospital. The clinical endpoints were deaths due to progressive HF, myocardial infarction, stroke, and sudden cardiac death, and rehospitalization for wors...

New antihyperglycaemic agents and cardiovascular disease: let's be optimistic
Purpose of review Cardiovascular disease (CVD) substantially increases mortality in diabetes mellitus. This narrative review highlights recent research on the putative associations between dipeptyl peptidase 4 inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) and several cardiovascular risk factors. Recent findings New antihyperglycaemic agents favourably modulate several CVD risk factors, including fasting and postprandial plasma glucose levels, body weight, blood pressure, lipids, microalbuminuria, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, serum uric a...

Fatty liver index and development of cardiovascular disease in Koreans without pre-existing myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke: a large population-based study
Despite the known association between non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD), whether NAFLD predicts future CVD events, especially CVD mortality, remains uncertain. We evalu...

HIIT for post-COVID patients within cardiac rehabilitation: Response to letter to the editor
We thank Li and colleagues for their comments regarding our recent research into the benefits of incorporating high-intensity interval training (HIIT) into cardiac rehabilitation for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) [1]. In recent years, HIIT has proven popular in the general community and has been studied across a wide array of cardiovascular (CV)-related disorders, such as hypertension [2,3], stroke [4,5], type II diabetes [6] and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [7]. This is due to compounding, compelling evidence of the efficacy of HIIT on CV outcomes such as reduced blood pressure, lowered body fat, improv...

The Cardiovascular and Metabolic Effects of Chronic Hypoxia in Animal Models: A Mini-Review
Front Physiol. 2022 Mar 31;13:873522. doi: 10.3389/fphys.2022.873522. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTAnimal models are useful to understand the myriad physiological effects of hypoxia. Such models attempt to recapitulate the hypoxemia of human disease in various ways. In this mini-review, we consider the various animal models which have been deployed to understand the effects of chronic hypoxia on pulmonary and systemic blood pressure, glucose and lipid metabolism, atherosclerosis, and stroke. Chronic sustained hypoxia (CSH)-a model of chronic lung or heart diseases in which hypoxemia may be longstanding and persistent, or of hi...
