Urinary element profiles and associations with cardiometabolic diseases: A cross-sectional study across ten areas in China
CONCLUSION: In China, the urinary levels of several toxic metals were significantly associated with the consumption of specific food groups and the risk of cardiometabolic diseases including diabetes and stroke.PMID:34896320 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2021.112535

Lower Serum Potassium Levels at Admission are Associated with the Risk of Recurrent Stroke in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack
Conclusions: Lower serum potassium level was independently associated with elevated risk of recurrent stroke in patients with AIS or TIA. The finding suggested that monitoring serum potassium may help physicians to identify patients at high risk of recurrent stroke and to stratify risk for optimal management.Cerebrovasc Dis

Iptakalim improves cerebral microcirculation in mice after ischemic stroke by inhibiting pericyte contraction
In this study we investigated the impacts of iptakalim on pericytes contraction in stroke. Mice were subjected to cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), then administered iptakalim (10 mg/kg, ip). We showed that iptakalim administration significantly promoted recovery of cerebral blood flow after cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Furthermore, we found that iptakalim significantly inhibited pericytes contraction, decreased the number of obstructed capillaries, and improved cerebral microcirculation. Using a collagen gel contraction assay, we demonstrated that cultured pericytes subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) cons...

Salt Substitute Cut Disease and Death Rates in Large Trial
A randomized trial recently reported in the New England Journal of Medicine focused on an important question for older adults with high blood pressure or a previous stroke: Can switching from regular salt to a 75% sodium chloride and 25% potassium chloride substitute help protect against stroke, major cardiovascular events, or death?

Molecules, Vol. 26, Pages 6124: A Novel Phenylpyrrolidine Derivative: Synthesis and Effect on Cognitive Functions in Rats with Experimental Ishemic Stroke
Vladimir P. Chekhonin Sophia S. Borisevich Maxim A. Gureev Anastasia D. Shagina Nina M. Kiseleva Vadim V. Negrebetsky Yuri I. Baukov We performed an in silico, in vitro, and in vivo assessment of a potassium 2-[2-(2-oxo-4-phenylpyrrolidin-1-yl) acetamido]ethanesulfonate (compound 1) as a potential prodrug for cognitive function improvement in ischemic brain injury. Using in silico methods, we predicted the pharmacological efficacy and possible safety in rat models. In addition, in silico data showed neuroprotective features of compound 1, which were further supported by in vitro experiments in a glutamate e...

Perioperative Risk Factors of Atrial Fibrillation Post CABG Surgeries, a Retrospective Non-Randomized Study
ConclusionThe current study found that low ejection fraction, dilated left atrium, hypertension, smoking, old age, male gender, prolonged bypass time, prolonged cross clamping time, renal impairment, previous myocardial infarction, ungrafted dominant right coronary artery, low temperatures on bypass, early ischemic changes postoperative, hypokalemia, use of adrenaline and nor adrenaline, all of these factors were a significant predictors for development of atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery.

Predictors of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Prospective Cohort Study
ConclusionThere are a wide range of significant epidemiological, clinical, and operative predictors for the development of post-CABG AF including older age, female gender, large LA diameter, higher CHA2DS2-VASc score, valve replacement and postoperative inotropic support. Nevertheless, further large-scale studies are still needed to confirm our findings.

Loop Diuretics Inhibit Ischemia-Induced Intracellular Ca2+ Overload in Neurons via the Inhibition of Voltage-Gated Ca2+ and Na+ Channels
One consequence of ischemic stroke is disruption of intracellular ionic homeostasis. Intracellular overload of both Na+ and Ca2+ has been linked to neuronal death in this pathophysiological state. The etiology of ionic imbalances resulting from stroke-induced ischemia and acidosis includes the dysregulation of multiple plasma membrane transport proteins, such as increased activity of sodium-potassium-chloride cotransporter-1 (NKCC-1). Experiments using NKCC1 antagonists, bumetanide (BMN) and ethacrynic acid (EA), were carried out to determine if inhibition of this cotransporter affects Na+ and Ca2+ overload observed follow...
