The global impact of non-communicable diseases on macro-economic productivity: a systematic review
Abstract Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have large economic impact at multiple levels. To systematically review the literature investigating the economic impact of NCDs [including coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), cancer (lung, colon, cervical and breast), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD)] on macro-economic productivity. Systematic search, up to November 6th 2014, of medical databases (Medline, Embase and Google Scholar) without language restrictions. To identify additional publications, we searched the reference lists of retriev...

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Cancer Patients: Prevalence and Outcomes in the United States.
CONCLUSION: Among those undergoing CABG, the prevalence of comorbid cancer has steadily increased. Outside of major bleeding, these patients appear to share similar outcomes to those without cancer indicating that CABG utilization should be not be declined in cancer patients when otherwise indicated. Further research into the factors underlying the decision to pursue CABG in specific cancer sub-groups is needed. PMID: 32861331 [PubMed - in process]

Cancers, Vol. 13, Pages 6203: Acute and Long-Term Outcomes of ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Cancer Patients, a & lsquo;Real World & rsquo; Analysis with 175,000 Patients
Conclusion: In this large “real world” data, prognosis after STEMI in cancer patients was markedly reduced but differed widely between cancer types. Of note, no withholding of interventional treatments in cancer patients could be observed.

Age and Life-Sustaining Treatment Preferences in Parkinson Disease
Conclusions Advancing age in PD may correlate with paradoxically more aggressive goals as it relates to life-sustaining treatment preferences including cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This may reflect a response to heightened concern among older adults with PD about the potential for compromised autonomy in the setting of aging.

Total, red and processed meat consumption and human health: an umbrella review of observational studies
Int J Food Sci Nutr. 2022 Mar 15:1-12. doi: 10.1080/09637486.2022.2050996. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMeat consumption has represented an important evolutionary step for humans. However, modern patterns of consumption, including excess intake, type of meat and cooking method have been the focus of attention as a potential cause of rise in non-communicable diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between total, red and processed meat with health outcomes and to assess the level of evidence by performing a systematic search of meta-analyses of prospective cohort studies. Convincing evidence of th...

PARP14 regulates EP4 receptor expression in human colon cancer HCA-7  cells
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2022 Jul 19;623:133-139. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2022.07.055. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTE type prostanoid 4 (EP4) receptors and their signaling pathways have been implicated in the development and malignant transformation of colorectal cancer. We herein demonstrated that the mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of histone deacetylase (HDAC)1 and HDAC2 by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 14 (PARP14) may be required to induce the expression of EP4 receptors. The suppression of PARP14 activity by siRNA and/or its inhibitors reduced the mRNA expression of EP4 receptors. Thus, the expression of their proteins to approx...
