Clustering populations by health and social care with multiple long-term conditions: a cohort study - the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA)
CONCLUSION: This study identified MLTC clusters by social care need with the highest primary care demand. Targeting clinical practice to prevent MLTC progression for these groups may lessen future pressures on primary care demand.PMID:37479312 | DOI:10.3399/bjgp23X734337

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.

Incidence of Stroke in People With Diabetes Compared to Those Without Diabetes: A Systematic Review
Conclusion The considerable differences between results can partly be explained by differences in study designs, statistical methods, definitions of stroke, and methods used to identify patients with diabetes. The lack of evidence arising from these differences ought to be rectified by new studies.

Heat Stroke Isn ’t Just a Short-Term Danger
With each summer of increased extreme heat, more people worldwide face the risks associated with heat exposure. Last year, Europe saw a record number of heat-related deaths, and even regions more used to dealing with hot weather, like South Asia, are seeing high temperatures start earlier and earlier in the season. Heat stroke—the most dangerous form of heat-related illness—is a growing threat and creates a public health quandary since there’s still no available treatment other than simply cooling victims down. What’s more, early research seems to suggest heat stroke could lead to further health con...

Major adverse cardiovascular events in patients treated with oral Janus kinase inhibitors for atopic dermatitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Our review highlighted rare cases of MACE among JAK inhibitors users for AD. Janus kinase inhibitors may have little to no effect on the occurrence of MACEs in patients with AD compared to comparators but the evidence is very uncertain. Real-life, long-term, population-level safety studies are needed.PMID:37410552 | DOI:10.1093/bjd/ljad229

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

Is exercise actually good for the brain?
There are plenty of reasons to get off your duff and exercise—but is improving your brain one of them? The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention touts exercise as a way to “ boost brain health , ” while the World Health Organization suggests that about 2 hours of moderate activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week can help improve thinking and memory skills . But new research reveals a more complex picture. One recent review of the literature suggests the studies tying exercise to brain health may have important limitations , including small sample sizes. Othe...

Supermarket trolley sensors could help to identify risk of stroke, say scientists
Study with 2,155 participants at Sainsbury ’s stores leads to atrial fibrillation diagnosis for 39 people unaware they had conditionSupermarket trolleys may be known for their wonky wheels and rusty frames, but researchers say the carts could be used to save lives by helping to identify people at risk of stroke through sensors in their handles.According to the British Heart Foundation, one in 45 people in the UK are living with atrial fibrillation (AF), which causes an abnormal heart rhythm and can increase the risk of stroke. While people may be unaware they have the condition, early detection and diagnosis is important...
