Background: Although the benefits of automatic external defibrillators are undeniable, their effectiveness could be dramatically improved. One of the key issues is the disparity between the locations of automatic external defibrillators and sudden cardiac arrests (SCAs).
Methods And Results: From emergency medical services and other Parisian agencies, data on all SCAs occurring in public places in Paris, France, were prospectively collected between 2000 and 2010 and recorded using 2020 grid areas.

Background: The life expectancy of patients undergoing a Fontan procedure is unknown.
Methods And Results: Follow-up of all 1006 survivors of the 1089 patients who underwent a Fontan procedure in Australia and New Zealand was obtained from a binational population-based registry including all pediatric and adult cardiac centers. There were 203 atriopulmonary connections (AP; 1975-1995), 271 lateral tunnels (1988-2006), and 532 extracardiac conduits (1997-2010).

Observational studies and nonrandomized trials support an association between periodontal disease and atherosclerotic vascular disease. Both diseases occur frequently in Aboriginal Australians. We hypothesized that nonsurgical periodontal therapy would improve measures of arterial function and structure that are subclinical indicators of atherosclerotic vascular disease.

Objective: There is some evidence that people born with high birth weight may be at increased risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. Details of the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We sought to determine whether people born large for gestational age have poor arterial health, increased adiposity, and a poor cardiovascular risk factor profile.

The skeleton is a major site of breast cancer metastases. High bone turnover increases risk of disease progression and death. However, there is no direct evidence that high bone turnover is causally associated with the establishment and progression of metastases.

Current therapies for arthritis are unsatisfactory and cause serious side effects and morbidity. It has been postulated that opioid drugs may block inflammatory mediators and attenuate the joint damage in adjuvant arthritis. However, the importance of opioid receptor subtypes involved in inflammation remains to be determined because data are conflicting in this regard.
