Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed data from over 10,000 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) from 2010 to 2017 to explore the impact of reduced kidney function (eGFR) on treatment and mortality rates.
  • It found that lower eGFR levels were strongly linked to a decrease in invasive treatments like coronary angiography; patients with eGFR <30 were significantly less likely to receive these procedures compared to those with higher eGFR.
  • Additionally, there was a clear connection between lower eGFR and higher 30-day mortality rates, indicating that kidney function plays a critical role in treatment outcomes for ACS patients.

Demographic processes that ensure the recovery and resilience of marine populations are critical as climate change sends an increasing proportion on a trajectory of decline. Yet for some populations, recovery potential remains high. We conducted annual monitoring over 9 years (2012-2020) to assess the recovery of coral populations belonging to the genus Pocillopora.

Background: Cardiac troponin is commonly raised in patients presenting with malignancy. The prognostic significance of raised troponin in these patients is unclear.

Objectives: We sought to investigate the relation between troponin and mortality in a large, well characterised cohort of patients with a routinely measured troponin and a primary diagnosis of malignancy.
