Aspirin use for the primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) has been questioned for having limited benefit in individuals with diabetes,1 neutral outcomes in individuals at low risk,2 and increased bleeding risk and mortality in healthy older individuals.3,4 Given the lack of specific updated evidence, we aimed to investigate whether aspirin use alongside guideline-directed… Continue reading Analysis of Aspirin Use and Cardiovascular Events and Mortality Among Adults With Hypertension and Controlled Systolic Blood Pressure

Avocado Consumption and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in US Adults
AbstractBackgroundEpidemiologic studies on the relationship between avocado intake and long‐term cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk are lacking. Methods and ResultsThis study included 68 786 women from the NHS (Nurses’ Health Study) and 41 701 men from the HPFS (Health Professionals Follow‐up Study; 1986–2016) who were free of cancer, coronary heart disease, and stroke at baseline. Diet… Continue reading Avocado Consumption and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in US Adults
Reduction of dietary sodium to less than 100 mmol in heart failure (SODIUM-HF): an international, open-label, randomised, controlled trial
BackgroundDietary restriction of sodium has been suggested to prevent fluid overload and adverse outcomes for patients with heart failure. We designed the Study of Dietary Intervention under 100 mmol in Heart Failure (SODIUM-HF) to test whether or not a reduction in dietary sodium reduces the incidence of future clinical events. MethodsSODIUM-HF is an international, open-label,… Continue reading Reduction of dietary sodium to less than 100 mmol in heart failure (SODIUM-HF): an international, open-label, randomised, controlled trial
Noninvasive Voice Biomarker Is Associated With Incident Coronary Artery Disease Events at Follow-up
AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate the association between a preidentified voice biomarker and incident coronary artery disease (CAD) events. MethodsPatients referred for clinically indicated coronary angiography underwent a total of three 30-second voice recordings using the Vocalis Health smartphone application between January 1, 2015, and February 28, 2017. A pre-established voice biomarker was derived from each individual recording,… Continue reading Noninvasive Voice Biomarker Is Associated With Incident Coronary Artery Disease Events at Follow-up
Abstract 10712: Observational Findings of PULS Cardiac Test Findings for Inflammatory Markers in Patients Receiving mRNA Vaccines
This clinic has been using the PULS Cardiac Test (Predictive Health Diagnostics Co., Irvine, CA) a clinically utilized measurement of multiple protein biomarkers, which generates a score predicting the 5 yr risk (percentage chance) of a new Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) called the PULS Score. The score is based on changes from the norm of… Continue reading Abstract 10712: Observational Findings of PULS Cardiac Test Findings for Inflammatory Markers in Patients Receiving mRNA Vaccines
A Comparative Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccines Based on over 580,000 Cases from the Vaccination Adverse Event Reporting System
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic is being battled via the largest vaccination campaign in history, with more than eight billion doses administered thus far. Therefore, discussions about potentially adverse reactions, and broader safety concerns, are critical. The U.S. Vaccination Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) has recorded vaccination side effects for over 30 years. About 580,000 events… Continue reading A Comparative Analysis of COVID-19 Vaccines Based on over 580,000 Cases from the Vaccination Adverse Event Reporting System
The Association of Consumption Time for Food With Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality Among Diabetic Patients
AimsThis study aims to investigate whether food intake time across 3 meals is associated with long-term survival among the people with diabetes. Materials and MethodsThis study included 4642 diabetic patients participating in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2003 to 2014. Food consumed across a day including the forenoon, afternoon, and evening was… Continue reading The Association of Consumption Time for Food With Cardiovascular Disease and All-Cause Mortality Among Diabetic Patients
1186-021 / 21 – REGULAR COFFEE INTAKE IS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPROVED MORTALITY IN PREVALENT CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
Historically physicians recommend avoiding coffee in patients with arrhythmia and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, data is lacking on safety of coffee in those with prevalent arrhythmia/CVD. We sought to investigate the associations between coffee and mortality/arrhythmia outcomes in prevalent conditionsMethods: The UK Biobank consists of 502543 people followed over > 10years. Self-reported coffee intake was divided… Continue reading 1186-021 / 21 – REGULAR COFFEE INTAKE IS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPROVED MORTALITY IN PREVALENT CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
1052-05 – GROUND, INSTANT, OR DECAFFEINATED COFFEE? IMPACT OF DIFFERENT COFFEE SUBTYPES ON INCIDENT ARRHYTHMIA, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND MORTALITY
Background: Population studies report health benefits from coffee intake. Coffee has up to 100 biologic compounds with caffeine most well known. The effects of coffee subtypes on cardiovascular(CV) outcomes is unclear. We aim to evaluate the associations between coffee subtypes and incident arrhythmia, CV disease (CVD), and total/ CV mortalityMethods: Participant responses to coffee amount and type(ground,… Continue reading 1052-05 – GROUND, INSTANT, OR DECAFFEINATED COFFEE? IMPACT OF DIFFERENT COFFEE SUBTYPES ON INCIDENT ARRHYTHMIA, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE AND MORTALITY
