Each year, the American Heart Association (AHA), in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, and other government agencies, brings together in a single document the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and the cardiovascular risk factors listed in the AHA’s My Life Check - Life’s Simple 7 (Figure1), which include core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure [BP], and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update represents …read more

Stroke and the neurovascular unit: glial cells, sex differences, and hypertension.
TL;DR: The impact of sex and hypertension as modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors and the underlying cellular mechanisms that may underlie heterogeneous stroke outcomes are explored.

Melissa Hausburg,Kaysie L. Banton,Phillip E. Roman,Fernando Salgado,Peter Baek,Michael J. Waxman,Allen Tanner,Jeffrey Yoder,David Bar-Or +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence suggests that propofol protects astrocytes from oxidative stress and stimulates astroglial-mediated protection of neurons in brain injury patients under sedation/anesthesia.

Hill,Mayank Goyal +19 more
TL;DR: Improved reperfusion grants patients with stroke additional QALYs and leads to long-term cost savings and should be assessed for safety and feasibility, even when initial reperfusions seems to be adequate.
Journal ArticleDOI
The subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator in review.
TL;DR: There is still a continued need to evaluate the efficacy of the S-ICD in broader patient populations including patients with several comorbidities and older patients so that more patients can be considered for this potentially lifesaving device.

Effects of inhaled air pollution on markers of integrity, inflammation, and microbiota profiles of the intestines in Apolipoprotein E knockout mice
Megan N. Fitch,Danielle Phillippi,Yan Zhang,Jo Ann Lucero,Ravi S. Pandey,June Liu,Jeremy Brower,Michael S. Allen,Matthew J. Campen,Jacob D. McDonald,Amie K. Lund +10 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest inhalation exposure to either MVE or WS result in alterations in components involved in mucosal integrity, and also microbiota profiles and diversity, which are associated with increased markers of an inflammatory response.

TL;DR: In those older than age 50, systolic blood pressure of greater than 140 mm Hg is a more important cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor than diastolic BP, and hypertension will be controlled only if patients are motivated to stay on their treatment plan.

TL;DR: It was agreed that there should not be an obligatory component, but that waist measurement would continue to be a useful preliminary screening tool, and a single set of cut points would be used for all components except waist circumference, for which further work is required.
