Background And Objective: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), one of the chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), is defined as a cardiac and vascular disorder that includes coronary heart disease, heart failure, peripheral arterial disease, cerebrovascular disease (stroke), congenital heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, and elevated blood pressure (hypertension). Having CVD increases the mortality rate. Emotional stress, an indirect indicator associated with CVD, can often manifest through facial expressions.

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally, with a poor prognosis primarily due to late diagnosis and limited treatment options. This research highlights the critical demand for advanced prognostic tools by creating a model centered on aging-related genes (ARGs) to improve prediction and treatment strategies for lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). By leveraging datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), we developed a prognostic model that integrates 14 ARGs using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) alongside Cox regression analyses.

: Foot and ankle injuries are one of the leading orthopedic causes of emergency department (ED) admissions. The purpose of this study was to analyze, through 5 years of data collection, differences in number and type of admissions, as well as the severity of foot and ankle trauma to the ED in the pre-pandemic period, during the COVID-19 emergency, and in the post-pandemic period. This study aims to assess epidemiological and clinical data.

This document determines the causes of mortality (2008-2022) and calculate per capita health expenditure (2013-2021) in octogenarians, nonagenarians and centenarians in the Colombian population, considering year, gender and age group. For this nationwide retrospective descriptive observational study, epidemiological regions, urban/rural areas and morbidities were also studied. A mean of 75,552 deaths was observed from 2008 to 2022.

Outpatient care following nonhospitalized traumatic brain injury (TBI) is variable, and often sparse. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's 2022 report on highlighted the need to improve the consistency and quality of TBI care in the community. In response, the present study aimed to identify existing evidence-based guidance and specific clinical actions over the days to months following nonhospitalized TBI that should be prioritized for implementation in primary care.
