Influence of continuous positive airway pressure treatment on auditory event-related potentials p300
Acta Clin Croat. 2022 Nov;61(3):373-378. doi: 10.20471/acc.2022.61.03.01.ABSTRACTObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by obstructions of the upper airway during sleep, resulting in repetitive breathing pauses accompanied by oxygen desaturation and arousal from sleep. OSA can be successfully treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), weight loss, positional therapy, oral appliances, hypoglossal nerve stimulation, and surgical procedures. It has been observed that untreated OSA is related to chronic disorders including hypertension, arrhythmias, congestive heart fail...

Discharge prescription patterns for antiplatelet and statin therapy following carotid endarterectomy: an analysis of the vascular quality initiative
Conclusions Although statin use has substantially improved following CEA, more than half of individuals not on a statin preprocedure remained this way at discharge. In addition, DAPT at discharge was frequent, a quarter of whom were on SAPT preprocedure. Further efforts are needed to improve rates of new statin prescriptions, ensure appropriate APT intensity at discharge and determine how different discharge APT regimens impact outcomes.

Non-occupational physical activity and risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer and mortality outcomes: a dose-response meta-analysis of large prospective studies
Conclusions Inverse non-linear dose–response associations suggest substantial protection against a range of chronic disease outcomes from small increases in non-occupational physical activity in inactive adults. PROSPERO registration number CRD42018095481.

First-line diuretics versus other classes of antihypertensive drugs for hypertension
CONCLUSIONS: When used as first-line agents for the treatment of hypertension, thiazides and thiazide-like drugs likely do not change total mortality and likely decrease some morbidity outcomes such as cardiovascular events and withdrawals due to adverse effects, when compared to beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, and alpha-blockers.PMID:37439548 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD008161.pub3

Low-Dose Combination Pills for Management of Hypertension
Hypertension (HTN) is the most common modifiable chronic disease that significantly increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.1 Antihypertensive treatment reduces incidence of coronary heart disease and stroke and prolongs life.1 Improving blood pressure (BP) control is a key strategy to decrease the burden of cardiovascular disease. Despite availability of very effective BP-lowering therapy, HTN remains uncontrolled in nearly 50% of American adults.2 In the majority of patients, a single-agent drug therapy is not sufficient for adequate reduction of BP, and more than half of patients need at least 2 antihypertensiv...

The efficacy of dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) diet on lipid profile: A systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical controlled trials
CONCLUSION: Findings of this meta-analysis showed that following the DASH diet had beneficial effects on serum triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, however, it had no effect on serum total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Based on these results, the DASH diet can be considered a strategy for the prevention and complementary management of dyslipidemia.PMID:37415367 | DOI:10.2174/0929867331666230706102406

Mode of transport, genetic susceptibility, and incidence of coronary heart disease
CONCLUSION: Exclusive use of cars was associated with a relatively higher risk of CHD across all strata of genetic susceptibility. Using alternatives to the car should be encouraged for prevention of CHD for the general population including individuals at high genetic risk.PMID:37403110 | DOI:10.1186/s12966-023-01484-4
