Objective: The aim of this study was to expound the dietary effects of different proportions of carbohydrate and fat on hypertension in the Chinese population.

Methods: We used data derived from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) from 1991 to 2011. In total, 10 459 Chinese participants aged over 12 years were included in the final analysis. A multivariable Cox regression was used to calculate the hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of hypertension in each group, and the medium proportion of carbohydrate and fat (MPCF) diet intake group was used as the reference.

Results: Compared with the participants who consumed an MPCF diet, the individuals who consumed a high-carbohydrate and low-fat (HCLF) diet had a higher risk of developing hypertension (hazard ratio: 1.295, 95% CI: 1.167-1.436), especially the individuals who were young (hazard ratio: 1.422, 95% CI: 1.106-1.828), were living in rural areas (hazard ratio: 1.373, 95% CI: 1.206-1.565) and consumed alcohol (hazard ratio: 1.363, 95% CI: 1.153-1.611). In addition, a low-carbohydrate and high-fat (LCHF) diet was not associated with hypertension (hazard ratio: 0.861, 95% CI: 0.694-1.068). Moreover, these associations were observed at the majority energy intake level.

Conclusion: An HCLF diet was significantly associated with an increased risk of hypertension.

Risk Factors for Infection-Attributable Mortality in Patients With Bacteremia: A Competing Risk Analysis.

Open Forum Infect Dis

January 2025

Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Background: Identifying risk factors for mortality in patients with bacteremia (SAB) is crucial due to its high fatality. However, data on risk factors for infection-attributable deaths considering competing risk events such as non-infection-attributable deaths remain limited. We performed a competing risk analysis to elucidate risk factors associated with 30-day infection-attributable mortality in a large cohort of patients with SAB.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the "obesity paradox," focusing on overweight and obese patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease.
  • Over a follow-up period averaging about 65 months, results showed that 17.4% of patients experienced adverse cardiovascular events, with a notable J-shaped relationship indicating that those classified as overweight (BMI 25.0-29.9 kg/m) had lower risks of total and major cardiovascular events.
  • The findings suggest that overweight individuals may have better cardiovascular outcomes post-PCI compared to those with a normal BMI.

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risks of stroke and mortality. It remains unclear whether rhythm control reduces the risk of stroke in patients with AF concomitant with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).

Methods: We identified AF patients with HCM who were ≥ 18 years old in the Taiwan National Health Insurance Database.

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype of breast cancer, with the worst prognosis among all subtypes. The impact of distinct cell subpopulations within the tumor microenvironment (TME) on TNBC patient prognosis has yet to be clarified.

Methods: Utilizing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) integrated with bulk RNA sequencing (bulk RNA-seq), we applied Cox regression models to compute hazard ratios, and cross-validated prognostic scoring using a GLMNET-based Cox model.

Background: The occurrence of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) seemed to be associated with better outcomes in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) patients. However, research focusing on the impact of the single-organ irAE (uni-irAE) or multi-organ irAEs (multi-irAEs) on the AGC outcome is relatively limited. In this study, we investigated individually the impact of the different irAEs on AGC survival as well as the co-occurrence patterns of multi-irAEs.
