Differential Cardiovascular Outcomes of Each Antihypertensive Drug Class in Patients With Hypertension and Breast Cancer Undergoing Doxorubicin-Containing Chemotherapy
CONCLUSION: RAS inhibitors are preferred for the treating hypertension and improving CV outcomes in patients with hypertension and breast cancer undergoing DOX-containing chemotherapy, particularly in patients with comorbid diabetes. However, CCBs are equivalent to RAS inhibitors and are more favorable than BBs and TDs in terms of improving CV outcomes.PMID:37704380 | DOI:10.4048/jbc.2023.26.e34

CIB2 Is a Novel Endogenous Repressor of Atrial Remodeling
CONCLUSIONS: Our data suggest that CIB2 represents a novel endogenous and atrial-enriched regulator that protects against atrial remodeling and AF under stress conditions. Therefore, CIB2 may represent a new potential target for treating AF.PMID:37128899 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062660

A New Study Shows How Seriously Air Pollution Can Affect Your Heartbeat
For China’s 1.4 billion people, the simple act of breathing has long been something of a risk. Living in the ninth-dirtiest country in the world in terms of air quality, China’s residents lose an average of 2.6 years of life per capita due to atmospheric pollution alone. The greatest risk, of course, is pulmonary, with air pollution leading to shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing, asthma episodes, and chest pain. But pollution affects the heart too; the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports that exposure to fine-particulate matter as well as to nitrogen oxides alone can lead to premature aging in bloo...

Association of Beta Blockers and Calcium Channel Blockers with Arrhythmia After Carotid Intervention
Postoperative arrhythmia has a reported incidence of 2% to 4%, which can increase patients ’ risk of developing stroke or myocardial infarction; however, insufficient data are available regarding the prognostic implications and management of arrhythmia after carotid intervention. The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with arrhythmia after carotid intervention usin g data collected as a part of the Society for Vascular Surgery Vascular Quality Initiative.

Unlucky numbers: Fighting murder convictions that rest on shoddy stats
LEIDEN, THE NETHERLANDS—
When a Dutch nurse named Lucia de Berk stood trial for serial murder in 2003, statistician Richard Gill was aware of the case. But he saw no reason to stick his nose into it.
De Berk was a pediatric nurse at Juliana Children’s Hospital in The Hague. In 2001, after a baby died while she was on duty, a colleague told superiors that De Berk had been present at a suspiciously high number of deaths and resuscitations. Hospital staff immediately informed the police. When investigators reexamined records from De Berk’s shifts, they found 10 suspicious incidents. Three other hospitals where D...

Comparison of Serum Selenium Levels Between Patients with Newly Diagnosed Atrial Fibrillation and Normal Controls
Biol Trace Elem Res. 2022 May 9. doi: 10.1007/s12011-022-03281-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained dysrhythmia in the elderly population. It is estimated to affect more than 30 million people worldwide. AF occurs when abnormal electrical impulses start to activate in the atria and override the heart's natural pacemaker, which can no longer control the heart's rhythm. Since atrial contractility is impaired in AF, blood flow in the atria becomes stasis over time and causes thrombus formation. This thrombus causes the risk of embolism and causes complications such as stroke. ...
