Background: Workplace health screening rarely includes measures of cardiorespiratory fitness, despite it being a greater predictor of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality than other routinely measured risk factors. This study aimed to determine the comparative acceptability of using a novel seismocardiography device to measure cardiorespiratory fitness via VO max during a workplace health check.
Methods: Participants were invited to participate in workplace health screening sessions where VO max was assessed by both seismocardiography at rest and sub-maximal exercise testing, in order for acceptability of both to be compared across multiple domains.

Background: Alirocumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 used for the reduction of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in high-risk patients not reaching their LDL-C target. Recently, a 2-mL prefilled autoinjector has been developed to support the monthly 300-mg dosing regimen with a single-injection administration.
Methods And Objectives: Monthly application of 300 mg AlirRocumab (Praluent) using the 2-mL SYDNEY Device (MARS) is a non-interventional, open, prospective, multi-center cohort study conducted in Germany between 2021 and 2023 with an observational period of 12 weeks.
