    The burden of ischemic heart disease and the epidemiologic transition in the Eastern Mediterranean Region: 1990–2019 - 7 month(s) ago

    It has been estimated that in the next decade, IHD prevalence, DALYs and deaths will increase more significantly in EMR than in any other region of the world. This study aims to provide a comprehensive description of the trends in the burden of ischemic heart disease (IHD) across the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) from 1990 to 2019. Data on IHD prevalence, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), mortality, DALYs attributable to risk factors, healthcare access and quality index (HAQ), and universal health coverage (UHC) were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database for EMR countries. The data were stratified based on the social demographic index (SDI). Information on cardiac rehabilitation was obtained from publications by the International Council of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation (ICCPR), and additional country-specific data were obtained through advanced search methods. Age standardization was performed using the direct method, app

    Kenneth Croitoru and Williams Turpin on Dietary Patterns and Intestinal Inflammation - 9 month(s) ago

    Recent years have seen mounting interest in the impact of diet on the gut microbiome, gastrointestinal inflammation, and the development of inflammatory bowel diseases. To investigate the connection between diet and gut inflammation, the study group known as the Crohn’s and Colitis Canada Genetic, Environmental, Microbial Project Research Consortium recruited a large cohort of healthy first-degree relatives of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD).
