Postdischarge cancer and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Our understanding of the correlation between postdischarge cancer and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remains incomplete. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between postdischarge cancers and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 25% of CAD patients without prior cancer history who underwent coronary artery angiography between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2015, were randomly enrolled using SPSS 26.

Elabela alleviates cuproptosis and vascular calcification in vitaminD3- overloaded mice via regulation of the PPAR-γ /FDX1 signaling.

Background: Vascular calcification is a crucial pathophysiological process associated with age-related cardiovascular diseases. Elabela, a recently identified peptide, has emerged as a significant player in the regulation of cardiovascular function and homeostasis. However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of Elabela on age-related vascular calcification remain largely unexplored.

Intestinal microbiota by angiotensin receptor blocker therapy exerts protective effects against hypertensive damages.

Dysbiosis of the gut microbiota has been implicated in hypertension, and drug-host-microbiome interactions have drawn considerable attention. However, the influence of angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB)-shaped gut microbiota on the host is not fully understood. In this work, we assessed the alterations of blood pressure (BP), vasculatures, and intestines following ARB-modified gut microbiome treatment and evaluated the changes in the intestinal transcriptome and serum metabolome in hypertensive rats.

Hepatocyte growth factor enhances the ability of dental pulp stem cells to ameliorate atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-knockout mice.

Background: Atherosclerosis (AS), a chronic inflammatory disease of blood vessels, is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are capable of exerting immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects by secreting cytokines and exosomes and are widely used to treat autoimmune and inflammation-related diseases. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a key role in many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Inflammation-based different association between anatomical severity of coronary artery disease and lung cancer.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is associated with cancer. The role of inflammation in the association of CAD with cancer remains unclear. The study investigated whether inflammation could impact the relationship between CAD and lung cancer.

Comparative study of the performance of controlled release materials containing mesoporous MnOx in catalytic persulfate activation for the remediation of tetracycline contaminated groundwater.

Controlled release materials (CRMs) are an emerging oxidant delivery technique for in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) that solve the problems of contaminant rebound, backflow and wake during groundwater remediation. CRMs were fabricated using ordered mesoporous manganese oxide (O-MnOx) and sodium persulfate (NaSO) as active components, for the removal of antibiotic pollutants from groundwater. In both static and dynamic groundwater environments, persulfate can first be activated by O-MnOx within CRMs to form sulfate radicals and hydroxyl radicals, with these radicals subsequently dissolving out from the CRMs and degrading tetracycline (TC).
