COVID-19 Can Cause New Cholesterol Problems. What to Know
Not long after the start of the global coronavirus pandemic, it was apparent that many people infected with SARS-CoV-2 were developing persistent and, in some cases, debilitating health problems. Now known widely as post-Covid syndrome or Long COVID, the most common symptoms of this condition are fatigue, attention problems, headaches, muscle or joint pain, and weakness. But those are just the start. Medical researchers have also linked SARS-CoV-2 to lingering complications in multiple organs and systems, and some recent work has found that new-onset cholesterol problems may be an under-recognized but common complication o...

Development and validation of explainable machine-learning models for carotid atherosclerosis early screening
CONCLUSIONS: The ML models developed could provide good performance for CAS identification using routine health check-up indicators and could hopefully be applied in scenarios without ethnic and geographic heterogeneity for CAS prevention.PMID:37246225 | DOI:10.1186/s12967-023-04093-8

Design and Rationale of the Home Blood Pressure Telemonitoring Linked with Community Health Workers to Improve Blood Pressure (LINKED-BP) Program
This study is part of the American Heart Association RESTORE (AddREssing Social Determinants TO pRevent hypErtension) Network. This study aims to examine the effect of the LINKED-BP Program on BP reduction and to evaluate the reach, adoption, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness of the intervention.METHODS: Using a hybrid type I effectiveness-implementation design, 600 adults who have elevated BP or untreated stage 1 hypertension without diabetes, chronic kidney disease, history of cardiovascular disease (stroke or coronary heart disease) and age < 65 years will be recruited from 20 primary care practices including co...

Distinguishing intracranial diabetes-related atherosclerotic plaques : A high-resolution MRI-based radiomics study
Introduction: Diabetes markedly affects the formation and development of intracranial atherosclerosis. The study was aimed at evaluating whether radiomics features can help distinguish plaques primarily associated with diabetes. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed patients who were admitted to our center because of acute ischemic stroke due to intracranial atherosclerosis between 2016 and 2022. Clinical data, blood biomarkers, conventional plaque features and plaque radiomics features were collected for all patients. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were determined from logistic regress...

Inflammation May Be the Culprit Behind Our Deadliest Diseases
In the early days of my medical residency, I met a man whom we’ll call Jason. He arrived to our emergency room on a holiday, nonchalant yet amiable, and complained of mild chest pain. Jason was tall and trim, with a strong South Boston accent and fingertips still faintly stained from his last home-improvement project. He was only 45 years old, but he looked much younger. He didn’t smoke, barely drank alcohol, and his cholesterol levels had always been normal. No one in his family had a history of heart disease. He asked us if we could work quickly—he wanted to be home for dinner with his daughters. [time-...

Cardiac transplant and exercise cardiac rehabilitation
AbstractCardiac transplantation is the final therapeutic option for patients with end-stage heart failure. Most patients experience a favorable functional ability post-transplant. However, episodes of acute rejection, and multiple comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease and cardiac allograft vasculopathy are common. The number of transplants has increased steadily over the past two decades with 3,817 operations performed in the United States in 2021. Patients have abnormal exercise physiologic responses related to surgical cardiac denervation, diastolic dysfunction, and the legacy of r...

Machine learning for the prediction of all-cause mortality in patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury during hospitalization
ConclusionsAfter selecting 15 crucial variables, a machine learning-based model for predicting the mortality of S-AKI patients was successfully established and the CatBoost model demonstrated best predictive performance.

Risk factor identification and prediction models for prolonged length of stay in hospital after acute ischemic stroke using artificial neural networks
ConclusionThe artificial neural network model achieved adequate discriminative power for predicting prolonged length of stay after acute ischemic stroke and identified crucial factors associated with a prolonged hospital stay. The proposed model can assist in clinically assessing the risk of prolonged hospitalization, informing decision-making, and developing individualized medical care plans for patients with acute ischemic stroke.
