Study protocol for development and validation of a single tool to assess risks of stroke, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction and dementia: DemNCD-Risk
Introduction Current efforts to reduce dementia focus on prevention and risk reduction by targeting modifiable risk factors. As dementia and cardiometabolic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) share risk factors, a single risk-estimating tool for dementia and multiple NCDs could be cost-effective and facilitate concurrent assessments as compared with a conventional single approach. The aim of this study is to develop and validate a new risk tool that estimates an individual’s risk of developing dementia and other NCDs including diabetes mellitus, stroke and myocardial infarction. Once validated, it could be used by the ...

How to improve the description of superior mesenteric artery occlusions in acute mesenteric ischemia: A new computed tomography anatomic segmentation
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an intestinal vascular emergency and one of the most severe ischemic syndromes. For stroke or myocardial infarction, arterial segmentations were proposed as early as 1938 and 1975, respectively. These segmentations - used on a daily basis - made it possible to harmonize practices and standardize neurovascular and coronary studies. There is no such standardization in AMI, but the vital and functional prognostic challenge is of the same order. In addition, the lack of a standardized description of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) lesions limits the interpretation and comparability of the studies.

How To Avoid China ’ s Medicine Monopoly
I want to share a shocking statistic with you… Around 80% of all the pharmaceuticals sold in America — both prescription and over-the-counter — are manufactured in China. I’m talking about drugs for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, blood pressure and blood thinners, diuretics, aspirin, antibiotics, and a big chunk of the world’s insulin and diabetes drugs — just to name a few.1 We don’t even make penicillin anymore. The last penicillin plant in the U.S. closed its doors in 2004. Americans who rely on medicine are now almost entirely at the mercy of a country whose relations with the U.S. have become more ...

Atherosclerosis as a Risk Factor for IBD: A Population-Based Case-Control Study
CONCLUSIONS: A history of an atherosclerotic-related condition is associated with increased odds of developing IBD, particularly among older adults. Future studies should investigate whether drugs targeting atherosclerotic-related inflammation may prevent IBD in higher-risk individuals.PMID:37721310 | DOI:10.14309/ajg.0000000000002502

Understanding the Link Between Adult Asthma and Coronary Artery Disease: A Narrative Review
Cureus. 2023 Aug 17;15(8):e43621. doi: 10.7759/cureus.43621. eCollection 2023 Aug.ABSTRACTAsthma is a common pathology worldwide that occurs due to chronic inflammation of the respiratory airways. Persistent pulmonary inflammation leads to low-grade systemic inflammation, influencing blood vessels and triggering coronary artery disease (CAD) events. This review's objectives include discussing the susceptible population for CAD, the mechanism underlying CAD creation in asthma patients, the characteristics of asthma, and the influence of anti-asthmatic medications on CAD development. Adult-onset asthma is strongly linked to ...

Steady solution and its stability of a mathematical model of diabetic atherosclerosis
J Biol Dyn. 2023 Dec;17(1):2257734. doi: 10.1080/17513758.2023.2257734.ABSTRACTAtherosclerosis is a leading cause of death worldwide. Making matters worse, nearly 463 million people have diabetes, which increases atherosclerosis-related inflammation. Diabetic patients are twice as likely to have a heart attack or stroke. In this paper, we consider a simplified mathematical model for diabetic atherosclerosis involving LDL, HDL, glucose, insulin, free radicals (ROS), β cells, macrophages and foam cells, which satisfy a system of partial differential equations with a free boundary, the interface between the blood flow and th...

Cardiovascular disease and risk factors in adults with diabetes mellitus in Hungary: a population-based study
The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of CVD in individuals with DM and to investigate the association between potential risk factors and the presence of CVD among individuals with DM in a population-based sample.MethodsThe study was based on data from three waves of the European Health Interview Surveys (EHIS) conducted in Hungary in 2009, 2014, and 2019.ResultsThe prevalence of CVD among patients with DM decreased during the study period and that socioeconomic factors, cardiometabolic risk factors including high blood pressure and high cholesterol, and depression are major contributors to CVD burden ...

Retrospective cohort study investigating synergism of air pollution and corticosteroid exposure in promoting cardiovascular and thromboembolic events in older adults
Conclusion PM2.5 and systemic corticosteroid use were independently associated with increases in CTE hospitalisations. We also found evidence of significant additive interactions between the two exposures for HF and MI/ACSs suggesting synergy between these two exposures.
