In 134 patients with stable coronary artery disease, high-risk plaque features at CT and physiologic stenosis were found to act in a synergistic fashion to predict adverse outcomes.

Background: Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is a common intervention for anemia in preterm infants; however, its association with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) remains debated. While biological mechanisms suggest potential harm, the clinical impact of transfusion frequency on BPD incidence and severity remains unclear.
Objective: To investigate whether RBC transfusion frequency is independently associated with the risk and severity of BPD in preterm infants born before 32 weeks of gestation.

The Grams model, designed to predict adverse event risks in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, was evaluated in a Chinese cohort of 1,333 patients with eGFR below 30 mL/min/1.73 m. The model demonstrated moderate to good discrimination across outcomes, performing well in predicting kidney replacement therapy (KRT) but overestimating the risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality.

Rationale And Objectives: The prognostic implications of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) are imperative to provide proper management of coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aimed to quantify the long-term prognostic value of MPI under routine clinical conditions.
Materials And Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study evaluated all-cause mortality and cause-specific survival according to MPI findings in patients with suspected or known CAD who underwent diagnostic evaluation or assessment of myocardial ischemia and viability in a tertiary referral cardiovascular center.

Background: Statin therapy lowers the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among people with HIV (PWH). Residual risk pathways contributing to excess MACE beyond low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) are not well understood. Our objective was to evaluate the association of statin responsive and other inflammatory and metabolic pathways to MACE in the Randomized Trial to Prevent Vascular Events in HIV (REPRIEVE).

Importance: Exposure to inflammation from chorioamnionitis places the fetus at higher risk of premature birth and may increase the risk of neurodevelopmental impairments, though the evidence for the latter is mixed.
Objective: To evaluate whether moderate to severe histologic chorioamnionitis (HCA) is directly associated with adverse motor performance, independent of the indirect mediating effects of premature birth.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This prospective, population-based cohort study recruited participants between September 16, 2016, and November 19, 2019, from referral and nonreferral neonatal intensive care units of 5 southwestern Ohio hospitals.
