A corona-charged aerosol detector (CAD) was developed to improve the sensitivity, reproducibility and quantitativeness of detection as compared to evaporative light-scattering detector (ELSD) for liquid chromatography. Our laboratory used the corona CAD as a detector for supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and evaluated its performance compared to the ELSD by using a certified reference material of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and a well-defined equimass mixture of uniform PEG oligomers. The corona CAD was able to detect a 10 times more dilute solution of uniform oligomers compared to the ELSD. Although the original data of molecular mass by ELSD was 4.6% smaller than the certified value of PEG 1000, molecular mass distribution obtained by corona CAD was virtually almost the same as the certified value without any calibrations.

Despite the advancements and release of new therapeutics in the past few years, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have remained the number one cause of death worldwide. Genetic variation of a 9p21.3 genomic locus has been identified as the most significant and robust genetic CVD risk marker on the population level, with the strongest association with coronary artery disease (CAD) and other diseases, including diabetes and cancer.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) poses a substantial threat to global health, leading to significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. It has a significant genetic component that has been studied through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) over the past 17 years. These studies have made progress with larger sample sizes, diverse ancestral backgrounds, and the discovery of multiple genomic regions related to CAD risk.

Background: Patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and coronary artery disease (CAD) or heart failure (HF) are more likely to have poor outcomes. This study aimed to determine the characteristics and outcomes of COVID-19 patients with CAD/HF across various institutions in the Philippines.

Methods: We utilized the data from the Philippine CORONA Study and compared the outcomes of admitted COVID-19 patients with CAD/HF versus those without.
