In the present work, we introduce a novel technique to identify the infarct time from time-series meaurements of the cardiac troponin T (cTnT) into plasma. Although this information is extremely valuable from a clinical standpoint, it is not always possible to establish with certainty the exact infarct time. Here, we show how the infarct time can be reliably estimated from the cTnT release data in the first few hours after AMI, by using an optimization-based procedure and a model-based approach. To validate the present approach, we have used a clinical dataset of patients in whom the infarct has been induced and, therefore, the infarct time is certain.

Detecting Hemorrhagic Myocardial Infarction With 3.0-T CMR: Insights Into Spatial Manifestation, Time-Dependence, and Optimal Acquisitions.

Background: Hemorrhagic myocardial infarction (hMI) can rapidly diminish the benefits of reperfusion therapy and direct the heart toward chronic heart failure. T2∗ cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the reference standard for detecting hMI. However, the lack of clarity around the earliest time point for detection, time-dependent changes in hemorrhage volume, and the optimal methods for detection can limit the development of strategies to manage hMI.

Cardiogenic shock (CS) is associated with high mortality, particularly in women. With early intervention being a cornerstone of CS management, this study aims to explore whether sex differences exist in the utilization of critical interventions, timing of treatment, and in-hospital mortality for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and non-AMI-CS. For this retrospective cohort study, we queried the National Inpatient Sample (years 2016-2021) for CS-related hospitalizations.

Planetary Health Diet and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in the Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra (SUN) Cohort.

Nutrients

December 2024

Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, School of Medicine-Clínica Universidad de Navarra, University of Navarra, Irunlarrea 1, 31008 Pamplona, Spain.

Background/objectives: Noncommunicable diseases, particularly cardiovascular disease (CVD), represent a significant global public health challenge, with unhealthy diets as a major risk factor. This study investigates the association between adherence to the Planetary Health Diet proposed by the EAT-Lancet Commission and CVD risk.

Methods: Utilizing data from the Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra (SUN) cohort, which included 18,656 participants (mean age 38 years; 61% women), we assessed dietary intake using a validated food frequency questionnaire and the Planetary Health Diet Index to evaluate adherence (range 0-42).

Background: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a sudden and often reversible condition characterized by rapid kidney function reduction, posing significant risks to coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. This study focuses on developing accurate predictive models to improve the early detection and prognosis of AKI in CAD patients.

Methods: We used Electronic Health Records (EHRs) from a nationwide CAD registry including 54 429 patients.
