Diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic insults.
Authors: Diener HC, Wachter R Abstract In cases of stroke a distinction is made between a transient ischemic attack (TIA), a manifest ischemic infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Cerebral ischemia can be caused by large vessel disease, small vessel disease, embolic causes, rare causes or stroke of unknown etiology. Acute diagnostic tests include a neurological examination, computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with angiography, electrocardiography (ECG), and laboratory tests. The basic treatment of patients with TIA or acute ischemic infarction is performed in the stroke unit and include...

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

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 ...
