Inferior vena cava diameter in patients with chronic heart failure and chronic kidney disease: a retrospective study.
Eur J Med Res
January 2025
Medical Big Data Research Center, Medical Innovation Research Division, Chinese PLA General Hospital, 28 Fuxing RD., Beijing, 100853, China.
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) carries the highest population attributable risk for mortality among all comorbidities in chronic heart failure (CHF). No studies about the association between inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and all-cause mortality in patients with the comorbidity of CKD and CHF has been published.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 1327 patients with CHF and CKD were included.
Factors Associated With Prolonged Venous Transit in Large Vessel Occlusion Acute Ischemic Strokes.
J Neuroimaging
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Division of Neuroradiology, Johns Hopkins Medical Center, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Background And Purpose: Prolonged venous transit (PVT), derived from computed tomography perfusion (CTP) time-to-maximum (T) maps, reflects compromised venous outflow (VO) in acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO). Poor VO is associated with worse clinical outcomes, but pre-treatment markers predictive of PVT are not well described.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 189 patients with anterior circulation AIS-LVO who underwent baseline CT evaluation, including non-contrast CT, CT angiography, and CTP.
The correlation of shift work and CLOCK, BMAL1, and PER1 gene polymorphisms with hypertension in healthcare workers: A cross-sectional study.
Medicine (Baltimore)
November 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Wuhan Hanyang Hospital, Wuhan, Hubei, China.
This study aimed to investigate the polymorphisms of circadian clock genes and the association of shift work and gene polymorphisms with hypertension in healthcare workers. This study recruited 222 healthcare workers, of whom 76 had primary hypertension (Hyp group) and 146 served as controls (Control group). General information and working hours were collected through questionnaires.

Medicine (Baltimore)
November 2024
Department of Anesthesiology, The Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, China.
Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is an acute brain dysfunction that mainly occurs in elderly patients after surgery. Postoperative pain is an important factor in the occurrence of POD, and effective pain management can reduce the risk of POD. Our study aims is to investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block (FNB) on postoperative pain and the occurrence of POD after knee arthroplasty, and whether its mechanism is related to oxidative stress, inflammatory factors.

PLoS One
January 2025
Institute of Sport Sciences, Jerzy Kukuczka Academy of Physical Education in Katowice, Katowice, Poland.
Curcumin is known for its potential health benefits; however, the evidence remains inconclusive regarding its necessity as a supplement for athletes during the preparatory phase of training. This study aimed to assess the effect of 6-week curcumin supplementation at a dose of 2g/day on selected inflammatory markers, blood count, and brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) levels in middle-aged amateur long-distance runners during the preparatory period of a macrocycle. Thirty runners were randomly assigned to either a curcumin-supplemented group (CUR, n = 15) or a placebo group (PLA, n = 15).
