Cardiovascular disease is a circulatory system disease involving the heart and blood vessels, which is one of the main causes of human health loss and even life-threatening. Ca is an important signal molecule. Free calcium ions in the cytoplasm are involved in various physiological and biochemical reactions of cells. Ferroptosis is a programmed cell death driven by lipid peroxidation dependent on free ferrous ions. The essence of ferroptosis is the accumulation of lipid peroxide caused by the increase of intracellular ferrous ion content, which leads to the damage of the phospholipid membrane and eventually cell death. Studies have shown that calcium homeostasis and ferroptosis are involved in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases, but the relationship between them remains to be clarified. This article reviews the various pathways regulating calcium homeostasis in cells and the occurrence and development mechanism of ferroptosis, and discusses the relationship between the two in cardiovascular diseases, which is expected to provide novel and important strategies for alleviating and treating cardiovascular diseases.

Background: Hypertension is a major global health issue and a significant modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, contributing to a substantial socioeconomic burden due to its high prevalence. In China, particularly among populations living near desert regions, hypertension is even more prevalent due to unique environmental and lifestyle conditions, exacerbating the disease burden in these areas, underscoring the urgent need for effective early detection and intervention strategies.

Objective: This study aims to develop, calibrate, and prospectively validate a 2-year hypertension risk prediction model by using large-scale health examination data collected from populations residing in 4 regions surrounding the Taklamakan Desert of northwest China.

Calcinosis cutis, characterized by the pathological deposition of insoluble calcium salts in the skin, is associated with several disease entities, particularly autoimmune conditions such as scleroderma and dermatomyositis. Lesions of calcinosis are often painful, prone to ulceration, and significantly impair quality of life. Despite the clinical impact, no effective treatments have been established to date, making prevention of this condition a critical priority.

Purpose: To compare automated and semiautomated methods for the measurement of retinal microvascular biomarkers: the automated retinal vascular morphology (AutoMorph) algorithm and the Singapore "I" Vessel Assessment (SIVA) software.

Methods: Analysis of retinal fundus photographs centered on optic discs from the population-based Montrachet Study of adults aged 75 years and older. Comparison and agreement evaluation with intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) between SIVA and AutoMorph measures of the central retinal venular and arteriolar equivalent, arteriolar-venular ratio, and fractal dimension.

Unlabelled: Four-dimensional flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance (4D Flow cardiac MRI) is an advanced non-invasive imaging technology, and its derived kinetic energy (KE) blood flow parameters have been confirmed as a potential biomarkers for assessing ventricular hemodynamics. This review synthesizes details on the methodology, clinical significance, and current status of studies focused on quantifying KE parameters of the ventricle using 4D Flow cardiac MRI, providing an objective foundation for further exploration of the value of KE in cardiac diseases.

Study Type: retrospective.

Risk of Serious Bacterial and Non-Bacterial Infections in People With MASLD.

Liver Int

April 2025

Department of Pathophysiology and Transplantation, University of Milan, Milan, Italy.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease globally. MASLD is a multisystem disease where metabolic dysfunction plays a key role in the development of MASLD and its most relevant liver-related morbidities and extrahepatic complications, such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease and certain types of extrahepatic cancers. Among the least examined MASLD-related extrahepatic complications, an ever-increasing number of observational studies have reported a positive association between MASLD and the risk of serious bacterial infections (SBI) requiring hospital admission.
