Unlabelled: Los Movimientos Periódicos de las Piernas durante el Sueño (PLMS), diagnosticados por polisomnografía, se caracterizan por movimientos estereotipados de las piernas que aparecen de forma repetitiva durante la noche. Cada PLMS se asocia a un microdespertar e incrementos de la frecuencia cardiaca, presión arterial y actividad simpática.
Objetivos: Analizar asociación entre el índice patológico de PLMS y la PA de 24 horas, en pacientes normotensos. Evaluar la asociación entre índice patológico de PLMS, con alteraciones en la velocidad de onda de pulso y frecuencia cardíaca.
MÉtodos: Estudio observacional de casos y controles. Se estudiaron 19 sujetos normotensos mediante Polisomnografía Nocturna y Monitoreo Ambulatorio de la Presión Arterial. Se determinaron las variables: Edad, sexo, peso, índice de masa corporal. La presión arterial y frecuencia cardíaca de 24 hs, diurna y nocturna se evaluaron con monitoreo ambulatorio de presión arterial de 24 h. Se excluyeron pacientes con índice de apneas/hipopneas ≥ 5 e/h. Se describieron las variables y compararon sujetos con y sin PLMS, considerando significativo una p<0,05, además análisis de correlación.
Resultados: Se estudiaron a 11 pacientes con PLMS patológico y 7 controles (Índice PLMS 35,6±15 versus 7,9±5 respectivamente). Los pacientes con PLMS fueron más jóvenes 57 ±14 versus 64±6; p=0,284 años. La presión arterial de 24 h, fue menor en el grupo PLMS que en los controles (sistólica 114,2±11 versus 123±11; p=0,095; y diastólica 65,7±5 versus 74,4±11, p=0,027).
ConclusiÓn: Encontramos una relación estadísticamente significativa, inversa, no esperada, al correlacionar los movimientos periódicos de piernas durante el sueño, de grado patológico, con la presión arterial sistólica y media de 24 h, la presión arterial sistólica diurna y nocturna, y la presión arterial media nocturna, como así también hallazgos similares en la presión de pulso de 24 horas y la presión de pulso diurna y nocturna que fueron inferiores al grupo control. No encontramos cambios en la frecuencia cardíaca.

Globally, the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasing, accounting for a third of all deaths worldwide including myocardial infarctions (MIs) which represent the most severe clinical manifestation of CAD and are among the most dangerous coronary events. Therefore, this study aims to assess the knowledge of symptoms and risk factors of MIs, as well as attitudes and beliefs regarding MIs and confidence in recognizing CAD symptoms in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional study was conducted among individuals living in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia between November 2023 and April 2024 to assess their knowledge and beliefs about CAD and MIs.

Intraluminal prosthetic graft thrombus (IPT) has been described in case of endovascular aortic pathology repair. This study aimed to assess hemodynamic indicators associated with various anatomical morphologies following endovascular aortic repair (EVAR), aiming to offer further references for the choice of clinical therapy. Six model models (normal, iliac compression, aortic compression, aortoiliac compression, iliac distortion, and long-leg stent) were established based on common anatomical morphologies following EVAR.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a serious medical condition that causes a failure in the right heart. Two-pore channel 2 (TPC2) is upregulated in PAH, but its roles in PAH remain largely unknown. Our investigation aims at the mechanisms by which TPC2 regulates PAH development.

Introduction: Obesity is an independent risk factor for postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. POAF in patients with severe obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 35 kg/m) is less studied. Whether waist circumference (WC) improves prediction of POAF independently of BMI among patients with severe obesity remains unknown.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) has been recognized as a chronic progressive inflammatory disorder, and Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an independent risk factor for the pathogenesis of CHD. Recent research has underscored the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) as a potent prognostic indicator for individuals suffering from acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to delve into the relationship between SII and the degree of coronary atherosclerotic stenosis in non-acute myocardial infarction patients with or without DM.
