Background: Lp(a; Lipoprotein[a]) is a predictor of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD); however, there are few algorithms incorporating Lp(a), especially from real-world settings. We developed an electronic health record (EHR)-based risk prediction algorithm including Lp(a).
Methods: Utilizing a large EHR database, we categorized Lp(a) cut points at 25, 50, and 75 mg/dL and constructed 10-year ASCVD risk prediction models incorporating Lp(a), with external validation in a pooled cohort of 4 US prospective studies.

Background: Abnormal thyroid hormone levels may occur in critical illness, which may have an interactive relationship with inflammatory reaction. At present, the relationship between triiodothyronine (T3)/thyroxine (T4) ratio and inflammatory indicators and all-cause mortality of stroke survivors is still unclear.
Methods: We obtained the relevant data of the respondents from 2007 to 2012 through the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database for statistical analysis.

Aims: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA), used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity, have been associated with off-target behavioural effects. We systematically assessed genetic variation in the GLP1R locus for impact on mental ill-health (MIH) and cardiometabolic phenotypes across diverse populations within UK Biobank.
Materials And Methods: All genetic variants with minor allele frequency >1% in the GLP1R locus were investigated for associations with MIH phenotypes and cardiometabolic phenotypes.

The ABILHAND is a widely used questionnaire assessing bimanual daily life activities in adults with stroke. A recently modified version tailored for the sub-Saharan African population (ABILHAND-Stroke Benin) has been created. This study aimed to investigate its test-retest reliability and responsiveness.

Background: Post-stroke depression (PSD) negatively impacts the physical and mental well-being of stroke survivors. However, data on the prevalence and risk factors of PSD in African countries such as Cameroon are limited.
Aim: This study aims to determine the prevalence and factors associated with PSD among stroke survivors at a hospital in Cameroon and inform clinical practice.
