Detection of serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol high levels in monks practicing Samatha and Vipassana meditation
ConclusionMeditating monks had a higher HDL cholesterol, lowest total cholesterol: HDL ratio and the other parameters tested had mean levels closer to the lower limit of the normal range, indicating a possible protective effect of meditation on cardiovascular diseases and stroke. These results may be related to the duration of practicing Samatha and Vipassana meditation but require confirmation using appropriate clinical trial.

Safety and Efficacy of the C-117 Formula for Vulnerable Carotid Artery Plaques (Spchim): A Randomized Double-Blind Controlled Pilot Study.
Conclusion: The C-117 formula may be antiatherosclerotic by strengthening statins to reduce the low-density lipoprotein levels and reducing the carotid plaque Crouse scores. Clinical trials with large sample sizes, long-term interventions, and follow-up are needed to investigate the efficacy of the C-117 formula.
Clinical Trials Registration: This trial is registered with clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT03072225 (registered retrospectively on 1st March 2017).

Weight-Loss Surgery Dramatically Lowers the Risk of Early Death, a New Study Finds
For decades, doctors have known that losing weight can significantly lower risk of heart disease and by extension, reduce the risk of dying from heart-related events such as stroke and heart attack. Studies have shown that both lifestyle changes including diet and exercise as well as medications and weight-loss surgery can improve heart disease risk factors such as obesity and diabetes, for example, but data supporting the benefits of any of these approaches in actually lowering rates of heart events such as heart attack and atrial fibrillation, or in reducing early deaths from heart disease, have been less robust. The dat...

Want To Live Longer? Study Suggests You Should Ditch Soda
This study, as well as other research on the connection between diet and sugary beverages and health risks, is observational and cannot show cause and effect. That’s a major limitation, researchers say, as it’s impossible to determine whether the association is due to a specific artificial sweetener, a type of beverage, obesity or another hidden health issue.
“The cause behind these associations isn’t clear,” said Bergquist. “Other potential biological causes could be attributed to experimental evidence linking consumption of artificial sweeteners to sugar cravings, appetite stimulation ...

Cardiometabolic disease costs associated with suboptimal diet in the United States: A cost analysis based on a microsimulation model
ConclusionsSuboptimal diet of 10 dietary factors accounts for 18.2% of all ischemic heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes costs in the US, highlighting that timely implementation of diet policies could address these health and economic burdens.

Cinnamon May Slow Progression To Type 2 Diabetes, Boston Study Finds
(CNN) — Cinnamon may improve blood sugar control in people with a condition known as prediabetes and may slow the progression to type 2 diabetes, according to a new pilot study of 51 people with elevated blood sugars.
“We are looking for safe, durable and cost-effective approaches to reduce the progression from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes,” said study author Dr. Giulio Romeo, a staff physician at Boston’s Joslin Diabetes Center and the division of endocrinology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The study published Tuesday in the Journal of the Endocrine Society.
“Our 12-week study sh...

Panaxatriol Saponins Promote M2 Polarization of BV2 Cells to Reduce Inflammation and Apoptosis after Glucose/Oxygen Deprivation by Activating STAT3
AbstractPanaxatriol saponins (PTS) have a long history in the treatment of stroke. In our previous experiments, PTS has been found to alleviate ischemic stroke and play a role through regulating the inflammatory response, but the specific mechanism of its regulation is still unclear. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Expressions of polarization-related proteins CD16, CD68, ARG1 and CD206; inflammatory factors interleukin-1 β (IL-1β); inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS); monocyte chemotactic protein 1(MCP-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2); apoptosis-related proteins pro-caspase3; bax; caspase3 and bcl-2; and ST...

Substitution of pure fruit juice for fruit and sugar-sweetened beverages and cardiometabolic risk in EPIC-NL: a prospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Substituting pure fruit juice for SSBs was associated with lower cardiometabolic risk, whereas substituting pure fruit juice for fruit was not associated with cardiometabolic risk.PMID:33641692 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980021000914

Major cardiovascular risk factor rates are high in the U.S. Hispanic/Latino population
(American Heart Association) While most Hispanic/Latino people in the U.S. were aware of their cardiovascular risk factors, less than half of the adults in a study of stroke survivors had healthy blood pressure and cholesterol, and about half had healthy blood sugar levels.Targeted prevention programs may help Hispanic/Latino people avoid a second stroke and other events, especially among older adults, women, the uninsured and those born or living in the U.S. for more than 10 years.

Effects of corticosteroids on new-onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Conclusion:
Our review suggests that the efficacy of corticosteroid might be beneficial to POAF development in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The strength of this association remains uncertain because of statistical and clinical heterogeneity among the included studies.

O-030 Super-selective middle meningeal artery embolization for chronic subdural hematoma using n-BCA with the sugar push technique: single center experience of 61 consecutive patients
ConclusionMMA embolization using diluted n-BCA with concomitant Dextrose 5% injection (Sugar-Rush) is associated with a high degree of distal penetration and complete branch occlusion and minimal risk of cranial nerve palsy or other thrombo-embolic complications. Clinical trials are warranted to compare long-term efficacy of this procedure with standard of care management.Disclosures S. Majidi: None. S. Matsoukas: None. R. De Leacy: None. P.

Correlation Between Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
CONCLUSION: CIMT is increased in NAFLD patients. Increase in CIMT is significantly correlated with increasing grades of NAFLD. Hence CIMT can be used as screening tests in NALFD patients to assess cardiovascular risks.PMID:35443534
