Relation of red cell distribution width with HAS-BLED score in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation
CONCLUSIONS: RDW value is associated with HAS-BLED value, and can be used as the independent predictive factor of high HAS-BLED scores.PMID:34164198 | PMC:PMC8182543 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-21-567

The role of biomarkers in the detection of the OSA syndrome. A narrative review of the literature
CONCLUSIONS: Our review of the literature did not actually identify an ideal biomarker even if promising research is ongoing.PMID:33958251 | DOI:10.1016/j.rmr.2021.04.005

Genetic analysis of obstructive sleep apnoea discovers a strong association with cardiometabolic health
There is currently limited understanding of the genetic aetiology of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). We aimed to identify genetic loci associated with OSA risk, and to test if OSA and its comorbidities share a common genetic background. We conducted the first large-scale genome-wide association study of OSA using the FinnGen study (217 955 individuals) with 16 761 OSA patients identified using nationwide health registries. We estimated 0.08 (95% CI 0.06–0.11) heritability and identified five loci associated with OSA (p<5.0x10–8): rs4837016 near GAPVD1 (GTPase activating protein and VPS9 domains 1), rs1092856...

Cutting the fat: advances and challenges in sleep apnoea genetics
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), characterised by recurrent upper airway obstruction, intermittent hypoxia and fragmented sleep, affects >15% of the adult population, with prevalence increasing markedly with advancing age and age-related cardiometabolic and pulmonary disorders [1]. Causal associations between OSA and hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, stroke and mortality are suggested by numerous large prospective studies [2], raising the possibility that effective treatment of OSA might provide a novel strategy for primary and secondary prevention of cardiometabolic dise...

Effect of Supervised Training Therapy on Pulmonary Arterial Compliance and Stroke Volume in Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Inoperable or Persistent Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that supervised exercise training may improve right ventricular function and PAC at the same time. Further prospective studies are needed to evaluate these findings.Respiration

Accelerated FEV1 decline and risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality in a primary care population of COPD patients
Accelerated lung function decline has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a general population, but little is known about this association in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We investigated the association between accelerated lung function decline and CVD outcomes and mortality in a primary care COPD population. COPD patients without a history of CVD were identified in the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD)-GOLD primary care dataset (n=36 382). Accelerated decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) was defined using the fastest quartile of the COPD popula...

Right ventricular pressure-volume loop shape and systolic pressure change in pulmonary hypertension
In conclusion, pressure-volume loop shape and RV systolic pressure differential predominately depend on afterload and PAH severity and reflect RV-arterial coupling in PAH.PMID:33655769 | DOI:10.1152/ajplung.00583.2020
