Objective: The pathogenic mechanism of depression involves chronic inflammation, which can be affected by sedentary behavior. This study aimed to determine whether sedentary behavior modified the association between depression and risk of death in the hypertensive population.
Methods: Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007-2018) was analyzed.
Background: Depression and cardiovascular health (CVH) are interconnected, and both are independently associated with mortality. However, the joint effects of depressive symptoms and CVH on mortality remain unclear.
Methods: By utilizing the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2007-2018, we included 18,679 adults aged ≥20 years without cardiovascular diseases (CVD).
Background: Patients with acute heart failure (HF) are at high risk of 30-day readmission. Little is known about the characteristics and associated factors of 30-day readmissions among patients with acute HF in China.
Methods: We enrolled consecutive patients hospitalized for acute HF and discharged from 52 hospitals in China from August 2016 to May 2018.
Background: Poor cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) health is associated with premature mortality and excess morbidity in the United States. Adverse social conditions have a prominent impact on cardiometabolic diseases during the life course. We aim to examine the association between social risk profile (SRP) and CKM multimorbidity among US adults.

Study Design: This was a longitudinal study.
Methods: The sample comprised 3043 participants aged 45-59 years from the China Longitudinal Study of Health and Retirement 2011-2018.
Background: We aimed to develop and validate a model to predict 1-year mortality risk among patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF), build a risk score and interpret its application in clinical decision making.
Methods: By using data from China Patient-Centred Evaluative Assessment of Cardiac Events Prospective Heart Failure Study, which prospectively enrolled patients hospitalized for AHF in 52 hospitals across 20 provinces, we used multivariate Cox proportional hazard model to develop and validate a model to predict 1-year mortality.
Results: There were 4,875 patients included in the study, 857 (17.

Aims: We aim to examine the association between long-term cumulative health status and subsequent mortality among patients with acute heart failure (HF).
Methods And Results: Based on a national prospective cohort study of patients hospitalized for HF, we measured health status by Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ)-12 at four time points, i.e.
Objective: This study examined the association between physical activity patterns and abdominal and general adiposity.
Methods: Data were extracted among 20- to 59-year-old participants in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2011 to 2018. Abdominal and general adiposity was assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and anthropometric measures.
Background: To examine the associations between cumulative depressive symptoms and subsequent mortality among patients hospitalized for acute hear failure (AHF).
Methods: By using data from a prospective cohort study of patients with HF, depressive symptoms were measured by using Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2) at admission, 1-and 12-month after discharge. Cumulative depressive symptoms were interpreted by cumulative PHQ-2 score and cumulative times of depressive symptoms.
Background: To examine the association between cumulative cognitive function and subsequent mortality among patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF).
Methods: Based on a prospective cohort of patients hospitalized for AHF, cognitive function was measured using Mini-Cog test at admission, 1- and 12-month following discharge. Cumulative cognitive function was interpreted by cumulative Mini-Cog score and cumulative times of cognitive impairment.
Importance: Sparse data exist regarding how clinician-assigned New York Heart Association (NYHA) class compares with heart failure (HF)-specific Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) in acute HF.
Objective: To compare concordance between NYHA class and KCCQ overall summary score (KCCQ-OS) in acute HF and investigate associations of changes in NYHA class and KCCQ-OS with long-term outcomes.
Design, Setting, And Participants: In this cohort study, patients with HF were enrolled from 52 hospitals in China between August 2016 and May 2018.
Background Improving health status is one of the major goals in the management of heart failure (HF). However, little is known about the long-term individual trajectories of health status in patients with acute HF after discharge. Methods and Results We enrolled 2328 patients hospitalized for HF from 51 hospitals prospectively and measured their health status via the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12 at admission and 1, 6, and 12 months after discharge, respectively.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAims: This study aimed to evaluate the cumulative high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTNT) from admission to 12 months after discharge and its association with mortality after 12 months among patients with acute heart failure (HF).
Methods: We used data from the China Patient-Centered Evaluative Assessment of Cardiac Events Prospective Heart Failure Study (China PEACE 5p-HF Study), which enrolled patients hospitalized primarily for HF from 52 hospitals between 2016 and 2018. We included patients who survived within 12 months and had hs-cTNT data at admission (within 48 h of admission) and 1 and 12 months after discharge.
Objective: To estimate the global burden of type 2 diabetes in adolescents and young adults (aged 15-39 years) from 1990 to 2019.
Design: Systematic analysis.
Data Source: Global Burden of Disease Study 2019.
Evidence regarding the effect of isomaltulose on glycemic and insulinemic responses is still conflicting, which limits isomaltulose's application in glycemic management. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively evaluate its effectiveness and evidence quality. We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) prior to October 2021.
