Targeted Plasma Proteomics to Predict the Development of Carotid Plaques
CONCLUSIONS: A new set of circulating proteins have been identified that may be considered as markers of preclinical atherosclerosis development. The difference of the protein identified to predict SCA versus IMT progression may reflect different etiological factors.PMID:35775410 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.122.038887

Lifestyle modification and cognitive function among individuals with resistant hypertension: cognitive outcomes from the TRIUMPH trial
Background: Resistant hypertension is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline, stroke, and dementia. Lifestyle modification has been suggested to improve cognitive function through its salutary effects on vascular function. Methods: Participants included 140 patients with resistant hypertension participating in the TRIUMPH trial. Participants were randomized to a cardiac rehabilitation-based lifestyle program (C-LIFE) or a standardized education and physician advice condition (SEPA). Participants completed a 45-min cognitive test battery consisting of tests of Executive Functioning and Learning, Memo...

Effectiveness and Safety of Rivaroxaban versus Warfarin Among Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Patients with Obesity and Polypharmacy
ConclusionsIn this real-world study of NVAF patients with obesity, rivaroxaban was associated with lower risks of stroke and systemic embolism and similar risk of major bleeding versus warfarin across polypharmacy categories.

Comparing the Clinical Outcomes Observed with Rivaroxaban Versus Warfarin for the Management of Obese Patients with Non-valvular Atrial Fibrillation: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionBased on this analysis, rivaroxaban seemed to be a better option in comparison to warfarin, due to its association with significantly lower risks of stroke and bleeding outcomes in obese patients with non-valvular AF. However, this hypothesis should further be confirmed in larger clinical trials.

Sex Difference in the Associations among Obesity-Related Indices with Incident Hypertension in a Large Taiwanese Population Follow-Up Study
In conclusion, the studied obesity-related indices were found to be predictors of incident hypertension, and there were differences in the associations between the male and female participants. Our findings may imply that reducing body weight may be associated with a lower risk of developing hypertension.PMID:35743756 | DOI:10.3390/jpm12060972

Association of carbohydrate and saturated fat intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality in Australian women
Conclusions In middle-aged Australian women, moderate carbohydrate intake (41.0%–44.3% of TEI) was associated with the lowest risk of CVD, without an effect on total mortality. Increasing saturated fat intake was not associated with CVD or mortality and instead correlated with lower rates of diabetes, hypertension and obesity.

Potential association between bacterial infections and ischemic stroke based on fifty case-control studies: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: In this meta-analysis, a significant relationship was observed between infection by three bacteria such as C. pneumoniae, H. pylori, and M. tuberculosis with the occurrence of ischemic stroke. Furthermore, due to the similarity between TLRVYK domain in β2-glycoprotein-I and TLRVYK peptide in various of microorganisms, produced antibodies against pathogens interact with β2-glycoprotein-I, hence the cross-reaction phenomenon increases the positive relationship between infectious diseases and ischemic stroke.PMID:35592534 | PMC:PMC9112101 | DOI:10.1016/j.nmni.2022.100980

Obesity paradox and cardiovascular diseases
Curr Cardiol Rev. 2022 May 14. doi: 10.2174/1573403X18666220514150051. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe present review summaries data describing the relationship between obesity and cardiovascular outcomes. Links between obesity and chronic coronary syndromes, acute coronary syndromes, coronary revascularization, ischemic stroke, heart failure, hypertension and atrial fibrillation were evaluated. Data from epidemiological studies, prospective studies with lifestyle modification or medical therapy, and results of the meta-analysis were evaluated. The majority of publications report the presence of an 'obesity paradox'. Acc...

Multimorbidity, guideline ‐directed medical therapies, and associated outcomes among hospitalized heart failure patients
ConclusionsComorbidity clusters were prevalent and associated with poorer outcomes. GDMT remained beneficial regardless of the comorbidity burden but tended to weaken with increasing comorbidity burden. Further research is required to optimize medical care in these patients.

Pyruvate Kinase M2: a novel regulator of adipogenesis
FASEB J. 2022 May;36 Suppl 1. doi: 10.1096/fasebj.2022.36.S1.L7944.ABSTRACTObesity is the cornerstone of many other conditions, with far-reaching impacts on numerous body systems and quality of life. Obesity is closely and likely causally associated with metabolic syndrome and consequent atherosclerosis, heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes as well as diseases such as cancer and osteoarthritis. Recent studies suggest exploring the possibility of activating brown adipose tissue as a potential anti-obesity strategy. However, understanding the mechanisms underlying the processes of brown adipogenesis and browning is fou...

Clinical Significance of Peptidase M20 Domain Containing 1 Ii Patients with Carotid Atherosclerosis
CONCLUSION: PM20D1 was decreased in carotid atherosclerosis patients and was associated with severity, plaque stability, and levels of C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor, homocysteine, triglyceride, total cholesterol and low-density leptin cholesterol in carotid atherosclerosis patients.PMID:35544855 | DOI:10.36660/abc.20210799

Polycystic ovary syndrome: a "risk-enhancing" factor for cardiovascular disease
Fertil Steril. 2022 May;117(5):924-935. doi: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2022.03.009.ABSTRACTPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age and is hallmarked by hyperandrogenism, oligo-ovulation, and polycystic ovarian morphology. Polycystic ovary syndrome, particularly the hyperandrogenism phenotype, is associated with several cardiometabolic abnormalities, including obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, and prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Many, but not all, studies have suggested that PCOS is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), includi...
