Early-Term Results of Rapid-Deployment Aortic Valve Replacement versus Standard Bioprosthesis Implantation Combined with Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
CONCLUSION: RDAVR combined with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) can be performed extremely safely. Cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass times can be significantly reduced with rapid deployment aortic valve system in the scenario of combined CABG. RDAVR resulted in lower gradients than CSAVR in patients implanted with prostheses of the same size.PMID:35151232 | DOI:10.1055/s-0042-1742686

Varenicline improves cognitive impairment in a mouse model of mPFC ischemia: The possible roles of inflammation, apoptosis, and synaptic factors
This study aimed to examine the effects of varenicline as α7 and α4β2 nicotine acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) agonist, on cognitive impairment, inflammation, apoptosis, and synaptic dysfunction in mPFC ischemia. Mice were divided to three groups of control, sham, or photothrombotic mPFC ischemia model. The control and sham groups received 2 ml/kg of normal saline for a 14-day period. As well, the animals in the ischemia groups received normal saline (2 ml/kg) or varenicline at 0.1, 1, and 3 mg/kg doses for a 14-day period. Anxiety-like behaviors were then assessed by open field (OFT) and elevated plus-maze (EPM) tests...

Ditching cigarettes for smokeless tobacco can help cut cardiovascular risks, study finds
Regular smokers are at heightened risk of developing cardiovascular disease, but crushing the butts in favor of a “smokeless” alternative like chewing tobacco, snuff or tobacco lozenges may go a long way toward bringing the danger down to a more normal level, a new UCLA-led study shows.The findings also indicate that the primary culprit in smokers ’ increased risk is not nicotine but other chemicals found in tobacco smoke. Both cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products contain large quantities of nicotine.The study,published today in the journal Nicotine and Tobacco Research, involved a team of researchers from UCLA...

Anxiety, Depression, Psychological Symptoms, Negative Effects, and Other Symptoms of Nicotine Withdrawal
This case occurred in a 33-year-old man who has been smoking for 19 years. He had a pattern of consuming 14 cigarettes per day with 30 mg of nicotine intake and high tar levels. The level of tolerance for consumption of nicotine and tar per day is 10 to 15 mg. High cigarette consumption correlates with high nicotine consumption as well. Excessive nicotine consumption over a long period can lead to lung cancer, stroke, heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and psychological disorders.

Assessing the Health and Economic Impact of a Potential Menthol Cigarette Ban in New York City: a Modeling Study
AbstractMenthol in cigarettes increases nicotine dependence and decreases the chances of successful smoking cessation. In New York City (NYC), nearly half of current smokers usually smoke menthol cigarettes. Female and non-Latino Black individuals were more likely to smoke menthol-flavored cigarettes compared to males and other races and ethnicities. Although the US Food and Drug Administration recently announced that it will ban menthol cigarettes, it is unclear how the policy would affect population health and health disparities in NYC. To inform potential policymaking, we used a microsimulation model of cardiovascular d...
