AI Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how different types of fruit consumption relate to all-cause mortality in patients with dyslipidemia, which is a condition involving abnormal lipid levels in the blood, and finds that increased fruit intake could have significant health benefits.
- - An analysis of 2,184 dyslipidemia patients revealed that those who consumed apples or bananas 3-4 times a week had a notable reduction in the 10-year risk of mortality, with a combination of both fruits showing the greatest protective effect.
- - The findings suggest that regularly eating apples and bananas can improve long-term survival rates in individuals with dyslipidemia, indicating that fruit consumption is an important factor in managing this condition.
Article Abstract
Background: Consuming fruit provides health benefits. Reportedly, increased fruit consumption reduces the risks of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. However, existing studies have not clarified the effect of fruit consumption on mortality risk in patients with dyslipidemia. This study aimed to assess the correlation between the consumption of different types of fruits and all-cause mortality in patients with dyslipidemia.
Methods: A total of 2,184 patients with dyslipidemia were included in this study, and trends in the correlation between the frequency of consumption of different types of fruits and the 10-year all-cause mortality risk in patients with dyslipidemia were analyzed by smoothed curve fitting, Cox regression, and Kaplan-Meier curve analysis. Subgroup analysis and interaction test were applied to analyze the stability of the effect of apple consumption on 10-year all-cause mortality in patients with dyslipidemia.
Results: Smoothed curve fitting and Cox regression analyses revealed a significant reduction in the 10-year all-cause mortality risk in patients with dyslipidemia who consumed apples 3-4 times/week (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.61, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.43-0.87, = 0.007) and in those who consumed bananas 3-4 times/week (HR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.52-0.98, = 0.039), with a more pronounced effect in patients who consumed both apples and bananas (HR = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.30-0.99, = 0.045). Other fruits did not exhibit similar effects.
Conclusion: Consuming apples or bananas 3-4 times/week significantly improved the 10-year survival rate in patients with dyslipidemia, and the effect was even more profound in patients who consumed both fruits.

Vascular Surgery Unit, S. Chiara Hospital, APSS Trento, Trento, Italy.
This case report presents the use of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in a 68-year-old woman with disabling bilateral claudication owing to a heavily calcified subocclusive stenosis of the infrarenal aorta. The patient had a history of tobacco use, dyslipidemia, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, with absent femoral pulses and severe arterial calcification. A 12-mm Shockwave L6 lithotripsy catheter was employed to treat the aortic lesion, resulting in a significant decrease in the aortic pressure gradient without the need for stenting.

Background: Aspirin treatment is recommended as a secondary prevention strategy and could be a potential primary prevention strategy for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, aspirin resistance is notably common among diabetic patients, compromising the efficacy of aspirin treatment. Hence, our study sought to assess the clinical predictors of aspirin resistance (AR) in T2DM patients.
