Association Between Calcium Supplementation and the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease and Stroke: A  Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Some observational studies and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) have reported an association between calcium supplementation and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous meta-analyses on the topic, based on data from RCTs and observational studies, have contradictory findings. This meta-analysis was conducted to determine the difference in associated risks of calcium supplementation with cardiovascular disease and stroke in RCTs.

Refining the Detection of Systemic Congestion in Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation: Echocardiography May Be  the Key
A growing number of studies have shown the independent prognostic value of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and the direct link between TR severity and adverse outcomes.1-4 However, TR not only affects prognosis but has also a negative impact on quality of life,5-7 decreasing functional capacity and increasing systemic congestion.7,8 The systolic blood backflow through the incompetent tricuspid valve reduces the forward stroke volume and cardiac output of the right ventricle (RV). Therefore, as TR worsens, pulmonary perfusion decreases, as does the venous return of oxygenated blood from the pulmonary circulation into the left ...

Study protocol for development and validation of a single tool to assess risks of stroke, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction and dementia: DemNCD-Risk
Introduction Current efforts to reduce dementia focus on prevention and risk reduction by targeting modifiable risk factors. As dementia and cardiometabolic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) share risk factors, a single risk-estimating tool for dementia and multiple NCDs could be cost-effective and facilitate concurrent assessments as compared with a conventional single approach. The aim of this study is to develop and validate a new risk tool that estimates an individual’s risk of developing dementia and other NCDs including diabetes mellitus, stroke and myocardial infarction. Once validated, it could be used by the ...

The TICE Pathway: Mechanisms and Potential Clinical Applications
This article focuses on the research progress of the TICE pathway in the last few years, including the discovery process of the TICE pathway, its molecular mechanism, and potential clinical applications.Recent FindingsCholesterol homeostasis is vital for cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and neurodegenerative diseases. Beyond the cholesterol excretion via hepatobiliary pathway, TICE contributes significantly to reverse cholesterol transport ex vivo and in vivo. Nuclear receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate cholesterol metabolism. The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and liver X receptor (LXR) activate...

The effects of cycling on walking outcomes in adults with stroke: a systematic review
CONCLUSION: Considerable heterogeneity was observed across cycling protocols with respect to intensity, frequency, exercise duration and protocol duration. However, none of the studies reported declines in walking outcomes and improvements were measured in the absence of task-specific gait training. Cycling interventions employing moderate- to high-intensity aerobic training and 24 sessions or more may be optimal in improving gait velocity and walking capacity.PMID:37732513 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2023.2259167
