Mashup Score: 1
In the present analysis of two observational population-based cohorts of middle-aged to older adults, the coronary artery calcium (CAC) score provided better discrimination for coronary heart disease risk prediction than did polygenic risk scores (PRS) in middle-aged and older adults. Risk discrimination is significantly improved when the CAC score is added to traditional risk factors, but not when PRS are added. An integrative approach involving a combination of the CAC score and PRS may improve risk

Mashup Score: 6Engineering blood and lymphatic microvascular networks - 16 hour(s) ago
The human vasculature plays a crucial role in the blood supply of nearly all organs as well as the drainage of the interstitial fluid. Consequently, if these physiological systems go awry, pathological changes might occur. Hence, the regeneration of existing vessels, as well as approaches to engineer artificial blood and lymphatic structures represent current challenges within the field of vascular research. In this review, we provide an overview of both the vascular blood circulation and the long-time neglected but equally important lymphatic system, with regard to their organotypic vasculature.

Mashup Score: 44GLP1RAs in Clinical Practice: Therapeutic Advances and Safety Perspectives - American College of Cardiology - 16 day(s) ago
Health care professionals should explore the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) for cardiovascular risk reduction and their broader impacts on cardiometabolic health beyond diabetes mellitus management, guided by the latest clinical trial findings and guidelines. Clinicians should be vigilant for gastrointestinal tract adverse effects in patients using GLP1RAs, advising gradual dose escalation and employing toolkits to improve tolerability. Glucagon-like peptide-1 is an incretin

Mashup Score: 88Who to Select For Treatment With Semaglutide: A Look at the SELECT Trial - American College of Cardiology - 27 day(s) ago
At the American Heart Association’s (AHA) Scientific Sessions 2023, the Semaglutide Effects on Cardiovascular Outcomes in People With Overweight or Obesity (SELECT) trial 1 was presented demonstrating that 2.4mg once weekly subcutaneous semaglutide in adults with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and body mass index ≥ 27 kg/m 2 but no diabetes mellitus (DM) resulted in 20% reduction in death from cardiovascular (CV) causes, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke over a mean

Mashup Score: 9
A groundbreaking new study found the presence of microplastics and nanoplastics in human arterial plaque. The presence of microplastics in plaque was associated with a 4.5 fold increase in risk of heart attack, stroke, and death.
