Acute effects of e-cigarette inhalation with or without nicotine on levels of microvesicles in the blood of human volunteers
Discussion: As little as 30 puffs of nicotine containing e-cigarette vapor cause increased levels of circulating MVs of endothelial and platelet origin, indicating possible vascular injury. This may lead to increased progression of atherosclerosis, the underlying cause of myocardial infarction and stroke.

Too Much Sleep Linked To Greater Risk Of Disease & Death, Study Finds
(CNN) — The recommended amount of sleep for adults is six to eight hours a night. Sleeping more than those hours is associated with an increased risk of death and cardiovascular diseases, says a global study published Wednesday in the European Heart Journal.
Looking at data from 21 countries, across seven regions, the research team found that people sleeping more than the recommended upper limit of eight hours increased their risk of major cardiovascular events, like stroke or heart failure, as well as death by up to 41%.
But a possible reason for this could be that people have underlying conditions causing them to s...

Mental Health, Sleep Deprivation and Career Stress in EMS and Fire
The human brain is a marvelous, yet complicated system. Researchers spend entire careers studying what makes the brain act or react to certain experiences. A mental health issue stemming from life’s experiences has culturally been seen as a sign of weakness, but actually is part of a very complex architecture that’s unique from person to person.
In order to gain an understanding of how stress plays a role in the lives of first responders, we need to start answering some hard questions: What leads to burn-out? What’s associated with PTSD? How is lack of sleep affecting the mental health states of first responders? The...

Clinical, radiological, and histological characteristics of Chinese type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic scleredema: an observational study
ConclusionOur reports suggest that DS is relatively rare in Chinese patients with diabetes. DS occurs both in middle-aged and elderly patients (male predominantly), overweight or obese, having long-term poorly controlled type 2 diabetes, and presenting a high incidence of microvascular complications, hypertension, neuropathy, and ischemic cerebral stroke. High LDL-C level, nicotine abuse, and alcohol abuse may be risk factors. MRI could be preferable to assess the severity of DS non-invasively.

PERSPECTIVES Small Heat Shock Proteins, Amyloid Fibrils, and Nicotine Stimulate a Common Immune Suppressive Pathway with Implications for Future Therapies
The α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) is central to the anti-inflammatory function of the vagus nerve in a physiological mechanism termed the inflammatory reflex. Studies on the inflammatory reflex have been instrumental for the current development of the field of bioelectronic medicine. An independent investigation of the biological role of αB-crystallin (HspB5), the most abundant gene transcript present in active multiple sclerosis lesions in human brains, also led to α7nAChR. Induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in HspB5–/– mice results in greater p...

Efficacy of smoking cessation with varenicline plus counselling for e-cigarettes users (VAREVAPE): A protocol for a randomized controlled trial.
Abstract
Tobacco smoking is a global pandemic that poses substantial health burdens and costs. With nearly six million deaths annually, smoking is the single most important cause of avoidable premature mortality in the world, mainly from lung cancer, coronary heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and stroke. Smoking is a very difficult addiction to break, even for those with a strong desire to quit. Electronic cigarettes are an attractive long-term alternative source of nicotine to conventional cigarettes because of their many similarities with smoking. Electronic cigarette users report buying them ...
