Cross-Sectoral Comparisons of Process Quality Indicators of Health Care Across Residential Regions Using Restricted Mean Survival Time.
Med Care

Institute of Clinical Biometrics, Center for Medical Data Science, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Practice guidelines recommend patient management based on scientific evidence. Quality indicators gauge adherence to such recommendations and assess health care quality. They are usually defined as adverse event rates, which may not fully capture guideline adherence over time.

Department of Ultrasound, Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital, Yantai, Shandong, China.
To investigate the correlation between fetoplacental circulation and maternal left ventricular myocardial work (MW) parameters in patients with preeclampsia (PE) and the prediction of fetal hypoxia. Seventy-eight PE patients (PE group) were assigned to intrauterine-hypoxia (27) and non-intrauterine-hypoxia (51) groups, and 45 healthy pregnant women were controls. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve evaluated the diagnostic efficacy of each parameter for fetal intrauterine hypoxia.

Department of Cardiology, CHU Montpellier, 34295 Montpellier, France.
Background: Recommended treatment after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) involves high-intensity statin therapy to achieve the low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) target of<1.4mmol/L (European guidelines), but many patients discontinue statins because of real or perceived side-effects. Whether body mass index (BMI) influences statin intolerance remains unclear.

Department of Cardiology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing 210029, China. Electronic address:
Background: Previous studies report that Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) may be associated with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM); However, the causal relationship remains to be elucidated. Here, we aimed to investigate the causal relationship between HT and NICM through Mendelian randomization (MR) and explore the potential mediating role of inflammatory cytokines within this association.
Methods: The bidirectional two-sample MR, multivariable MR and mediation MR analyses were conducted based on genome-wide association study summary datasets, and MR results were further supported by multiple sensitivity analysis methods.
Wearable devices, ischemic heart disease and cardiovascular outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

December 2024
Applied Health Sciences, School of Health Sciences, College of Medicine and Health, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom. Electronic address:
Objectives: To evaluate the impact of wearable devices when associated with usual care on the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with ischemic heart disease compared with usual care alone.
Methods: Randomised clinical trials with patients aged 18 years and above with ischemic heart disease, using wearable devices and assessing at least one of the primary outcomes (myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiovascular mortality, or major adverse cardiovascular events) or secondary outcomes (all-cause mortality, hospitalisation, all arrhythmias, heart failure, unstable angina or revascularisation procedures) were included. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CINHAL, INAHTA and the Web of Science Core Collection were searched in April 2024.
