Causes of death in patients with atrial fibrillation in the UK: a nationwide electronic health record study.

Aims: Causes of death remain largely unexplored in the atrial fibrillation (AF) population. We aimed to (i) thoroughly assess causes of death in patients with AF, especially those associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD) and (ii) evaluate the potential association between AF and SCD.

Methods And Results: Linked primary and secondary care United Kingdom Clinical Practice Research Datalink dataset comprising 6 529 382 individuals aged ≥18.

Effects of aerobic training on brain architecture, hippocampal volume, cardiorespiratory parameters, and health-related quality of life among patients with schizophrenia: A systematic review.

Background: Schizophrenia is considered to be a condition that usually manifests at any age but commonly seen in young people and is associated with a genetic propensity in brain development.

Aim: The study explores the impact of aerobic training on brain architecture, hippocampal volume, cardiorespiratory parameters, and quality of life in young individuals with schizophrenia. The investigation focuses on the correlation between genetic predisposition, hippocampal atrophy, and diminished cardiorespiratory fitness, aiming to discern potential benefits of aerobic exercise on both physical and mental health outcomes.

Predictive analytics technique based on hybrid sampling to manage unbalanced data in smart cities.

A smart city is deemed smart enough because it has the capability to make decisions on its own. Artificial intelligence needs a lot of data from the physical world to make correct decisions. IoT sensor devices collect data from the surroundings, which is further used for predictive analytics.

Nationwide Cross-Sectional Analysis of Mortality Trends in Patients with Sarcoidosis and Non-Ischemic Cardiovascular Disease-The Impact of Gender, Ethnicity, Geographical Location, and COVID-19 Pandemic.

The epidemiological data regarding mortality rates of adults with sarcoidosis and non-ischemic cardiovascular disease (CVD) are limited. A retrospective observational analysis was conducted to identify trends and disparities related to sarcoidosis and non-ischemic cardiovascular disease mortality among the adult US population from 1999 to 2022. We used the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) WONDER database to extract death certificate data for the adult US population (≥25 years).
