Associations of baseline and changes in the triglyceride glucose-weight adjusted waist index and cardiovascular disease risk: evidence from middle-aged and older individuals.

Background: Existing researches have predominantly focused on the implications of dynamic alterations in the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and traditional obesity measures for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, the application of the weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), which incorporates the dynamically changing body composition factors of weight and waist circumference, alongside the TyG index for predicting CVD risk, remains unexplored. This study explores the relationships between baseline TyG-WWI index and its dynamic changes with CVD risk.

Associations between nine dietary minerals intake and all-cause mortality in individuals with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Background: Varied intake of dietary minerals critically affects cardiovascular health. This study examines the associations of nine dietary minerals intake with all-cause mortality in atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVDs).

Methods: This study analyzed 4,125 individuals with ASCVD from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, employing Kaplan-Meier survival analyses, weighted Cox models, and restricted cubic splines to assess linear and nonlinear relationships between dietary minerals intake and all-cause mortality.

Immuno-inflammatory pathogenesis in ischemic heart disease: perception and knowledge for neutrophil recruitment.

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) can trigger responses from the innate immune system, provoke aseptic inflammatory processes, and result in the recruitment and accumulation of neutrophils. Excessive recruitment of neutrophils is a potential driver of persistent cardiac inflammation. Once recruited, neutrophils are capable of secreting a plethora of inflammatory and chemotactic agents that intensify the inflammatory cascade.

The analysis encompassed 507 records, revealing an overall upward trend in annual publication volume.

Qi-Po-Sheng-Mai granule ameliorates Ach-CaCl -induced atrial fibrillation by regulating calcium homeostasis in cardiomyocytes.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the most common arrhythmias encountered in clinical settings. Currently, the pathophysiology of AF remains unclear, which severely limits the effectiveness and safety of medical therapies. The Chinese herbal formula Qi-Po-Sheng-Mai Granule (QPSM) has been widely used in China to treat AF.

Bibliometric and visual analysis of cardiovascular diseases and COVID-19 research.

Background: The global community has been affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which emerged in December 2019. Since then, many studies have been conducted on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and COVID-19. The aim of this study was to perform a bibliometric and visual analysis of the published relationship between CVDs and COVID-19.

Role of resveratrol in inhibiting pathological cardiac remodeling.

Cardiovascular disease is a group of diseases with high mortality in clinic, including hypertension, coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathy, heart valve disease, heart failure, to name a few. In the development of cardiovascular diseases, pathological cardiac remodeling is the most common cardiac pathological change, which often becomes a domino to accelerate the deterioration of the disease. Therefore, inhibiting pathological cardiac remodeling may delay the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases and provide patients with greater long-term benefits.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Phytoestrogen Protects Against Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury: Pre-Clinical Evidence From Small Animal Studies.

Phytoestrogens are a class of natural compounds that have structural similarities to estrogens. They have been identified to confer potent cardioprotective effects in experimental myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) animal models. We aimed to investigate the effect of PE on MIRI and its intrinsic mechanisms.

Psycho-Cardiological Disease: A Bibliometric Review From 2001 to 2021.

The aim of this study was to gain insight into the progress and dynamics of psycho-cardiological disease research and track its hot spots. We have analyzed psycho-cardiological disease-related literature extracted from the Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection from 2001 to 2021 with the help of Cite Space. As a result, we have included 5,032 records.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction From 2000 to 2021.

Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous disease, which is becoming a worldwide menace. By retrieving the relevant literature of HFpEF from 2000 to 2021, qualitative and quantitative evaluations are carried out to visualize the scientific achievements in this field. The data were from the Web of Science Core Collection database.

Knowledge domain and emerging trends in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy: a scientometric review based on CiteSpace analysis.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is often acute with a high mortality rate and is subject to relapse. Meanwhile, its complex pathogenesis has attracted increasing attention. To learn more about TTC, CiteSpace V.

Knowledge Domain and Emerging Trends of Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonists in Cardiovascular Research: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) are more likely to have cardiovascular disease (CVD). Glucose-lowering drugs with cardiovascular benefits represented by Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) were discovered and gained more and more attention. Data from 1985 to the 2021 were downloaded in the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database.

Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Analysis on Molecular Mechanism of Qingzi Zhitong Decoction in the Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a disease with complex pathological mechanisms. We explored the potential molecular mechanisms behind the therapeutic functions of Qingzi Zhitong decoction (QZZTD) in the treatment of UC by network pharmacology and molecular docking. QZZTD is a formula of Chinese traditional medicine consisting of 10 herbs.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Familial Hypercholesterolemia From 2011 to 2021.

Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH), an autosomal dominant genetic disease, is increasingly emerging as a global threat.

Relationships Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Cardiovascular Disease: A Bibliometric Analysis (2010-2021).

BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disease that can lead to intermittent hypoxia, increased sympathetic overdrive, and excessive oxidative stress, and eventually lead to cardiovascular/cerebrovascular diseases and metabolic disorders. The prevalence of OSA is reported to be higher in people with certain cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Therefore, the relationship between OSA and CVD has been gradually favored by researchers.

Use of Network Pharmacology to Explore the Mechanism of Gegen ( Radix) in the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Associated with Hyperlipidemia.

Rapid increases in metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hyperlipidemia, are becoming a substantial challenge to worldwide public health. Traditional Chinese medicine has a long history and abundant experience in the treatment of diabetes and hyperlipidemia, and Radix (known as Gegen in Chinese) is one of the most prevalent Chinese herbs applied to treat these diseases. The underlying mechanism by which Gegen simultaneously treats diabetes and hyperlipidemia, however, has not been clearly elucidated to date.
