Aim: to study associations of polymorphic genetic variants of inflammatory response, endothelial function, lipid metabolism, and blood coagulation with impaired renal function in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Material And Methods: We enrolled in the study 171 patients admitted to the Kemerovo Cardiology Dispensary within 24 hours after onset of STEMI. All patients underwent genotype identification of 25 polymorphic variants of 18 major candidate genes for cardiovascular disease. Genotyping was performed with DNA chip SINKAR-1 (Institute of Medical Genetics and LLC "Genomic Diagnosis"). Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated using serum creatinine level measured at admission.
Results: Comparison of allelic and genotype frequencies of the studied polymorphisms revealed that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene rs4291 was associated with decreased GFR: odds ratio (OR) for carriers of rare TT genotype was 2.31 [1.01-5.25], =0.043. Analysis of genotype combinations of ACE rs4343 polymorphism and hepatic lipase gene (LIPC) rs1800588 showed that AA genotype of rs4343 polymorphism in combination with CC genotype of rs1800588 polymorphism was associated with lowest risk of renal dysfunction, whereas GG and AG genotypes of ACE rs4343 in combination with TT and CT genotypes of LIPC rs1800588.

Objectives: To explore American Muslims' perceptions and experiences regarding hospice care within the United States.
Methods: A qualitative descriptive study of 11 participants, including one patient and ten family caregivers. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using a framework approach to identify key themes related to perceptions, ethical concerns, and experiences with hospice care.

This study expanded on the existing literature by examining the unique associations between maternal religious socialization, as a form of cultural socialization, along with civic socialization practices, and Muslim American emerging adults' civic engagement. In addition, the mediating role of Muslim American emerging adults' religious identity in the association between maternal socialization practices and their civic attitudes and behaviors were assessed. Participants included 329 self-identified Muslim American emerging adults (Mage = 21.

Evoked potential metrics extracted from an EEG exam can provide novel sources of information regarding brain function. While the P300 occurring around 300 ms post-stimulus has been extensively investigated in relation to mild cognitive impairment (MCI), with decreased amplitude and increased latency, the P200 response has not, particularly in an oddball-stimulus paradigm. This study compares the auditory P200 amplitudes between MCI (28 patients aged 74(8)) and non-MCI, (35 aged 72(4)).

Background: Temperature increases in the context of climate change affect numerous mental health outcomes. One such relevant outcome is involuntary admissions as these often relate to severe (life)threatening psychiatric conditions. Due to a shortage of studies into this topic, relationships between mean ambient temperature and involuntary admissions have remained largely elusive.

Objective: Approximately 20% of familial cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are caused by mutations in the gene encoding superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1). Epidemiological data have identified traumatic brain injury (TBI) as an exogenous risk factor for ALS; however, the mechanisms by which TBI may worsen SOD1 ALS remain largely undefined.
Methods: We sought to determine whether repetitive TBI (rTBI) accelerates disease onset and progression in the transgenic SOD1 mouse ALS model, and whether loss of the primary regulator of axonal degeneration sterile alpha and TIR motif containing 1 (Sarm1) mitigates the histological and behavioral pathophysiology.
