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.

Inflammation and immunomodulatory therapies influence the relationship between ATP-binding cassette A1 membrane transporter-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity and coronary atherosclerosis in rheumatoid arthritis
CONCLUSION: ABCA1-CEC associated with decreased atherosclerosis in patients with below-median baseline and time-averaged CRP and bDMARD use. Conversely, ABCA1-CEC associated with increased plaque in those with higher CRP, corticosteroid users, methotrexate nonusers, and bDMARD nonusers. While in well-treated and controlled disease ABCA1-CEC appears atheroprotective, in uncontrolled RA its action may be masked or fail to counteract the inflammation-driven proatherogenic state.PMID:37520890 | PMC:PMC10371792 | DOI:10.1016/j.jtauto.2023.100209

Risk factors for cardiovascular disease in primary Sj ögren’s syndrome (pSS): a 20-year follow-up study
ConclusionsExtraglandular involvement was associated with a higher prevalence of arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, and coronary artery disease. Anti-Ro/SSA and anti-La/SSB seropositivity was associated with a higher prevalence of cardiac rhythm abnormalities, hyperuricemia, venous thrombosis, coronary artery disease, and cerebrovascular disease. Raised inflammatory markers, disease activity measured by ESSDAI, extraglandular involvement, serologic markers including hypergammaglobulinemia and low C3, and treatment with corticosteroids were associated with a higher risk for cardiovascular comorbidities.Key ...

Systemic lupus erythematosus associated with development of macrophage activation syndrome and disseminated aspergillosis
CONCLUSIONS: Four features of this case merit discussion, including the: 1) infrequent association of SLE with MAS; 2) short interval between SLE diagnosis and critical illness; 3) manifestation of fungal tracheobronchitis with airway obstruction; and 4) lack of response to antifungal treatment while receiving ECMO.PMID:37349668 | DOI:10.1007/s12630-023-02506-2

What to Know About High Triglycerides
Discussions about heart health often center around blood pressure and cholesterol, with factors like poor sleep, smoking, family history of heart disease, and chronic stress thrown in. However, there’s one variable that doesn’t get covered as often, even though it can be an important indicator of cardiovascular risk: triglycerides. “We don’t really talk about triglycerides very much, especially compared to cholesterol, but they’re actually an essential part of understanding heart health,” says Dr. Adriana Quinones-Camacho, a cardiologist at NYU Langone Health in New York. “For some...

ATP-binding cassette G1 membrane transporter-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity influences coronary atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk in Rheumatoid Arthritis
CONCLUSION: ABCG1-CEC inversely associated with plaque burden and vulnerability, and plaque progression conditionally on cumulative inflammation and corticosteroid dose. ABCG1-CEC inversely associated with events specifically in patients with noncalcified plaques, lower inflammation and in prednisone users.PMID:36996698 | DOI:10.1016/j.jaut.2023.103029

Giant Cell Arteritis Presenting with Mania, Psychosis, and Cognitive Dysfunction: A Case Report
CONCLUSION: Corticosteroids led to a temporary exacerbation of manic symptoms, which improved after 3 to 4 weeks of continuous treatment, indicating that the symptoms were most likely associated with GCA. The patient manifested with clinical features and a clinical course that has, to our knowledge, not been described or published before. Therefore, GCA may be an underdiagnosed disease in psychiatric populations and should be considered in case of atypical, new-onset psychiatric disorders in the elderly.PMID:36819979 | PMC:PMC9938786 | DOI:10.1155/2023/7989712
