Article Abstract

While heart rate variability (HRV) is an established marker of cardiovascular health, the extent to which continuously measured HRV changes over time and the relationship between these changes and clinical outcomes are less clear. We performed a health system analysis of 225 patients implanted with a cardiac defibrillator or cardiac resynchronization device (CRT) with continuous HRV recording capabilities. We found that continuously measured HRV changed modestly over 2 years. Low baseline HRV, which is associated with low parasympathetic tone and/or increases in sympathetic tone, pertains a worse clinical prognosis as reflected by a significant association with all-cause hospitalization. Observed changes in HRV over 6-months of follow-up were not associated with subsequent outcomes.

Importance: The cardiovascular benefits of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) may vary by body mass index (BMI), but evidence on BMI-specific outcomes remains limited.

Objective: To investigate the associations of GLP-1 RA use with cardiovascular and kidney outcomes across BMI categories in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective cohort study used the Chang Gung Research Database, a clinical dataset covering multiple hospitals in Taiwan.

The explanation for how acutely stressful experiences could result in proximal health outcomes has been lacking in occupational health research. Although scholars have argued that individual personality and affect could worsen health behaviors, we believe that these qualities also could intensify the experience of acute stressors, potentially explaining why acutely stress encounters result in poor health outcomes for some people, but not others. Our study examines three individual differences - worry, negative affect, and positive affect - that are relevant to differential stress anticipation, reactivity, and recovery.

Objective: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) cause significant perinatal morbidity. We developed a nomogram predicting preterm delivery risk using pre-delivery 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and clinical factors.

Methods: HDP patients undergoing ABPM within 1 month pre-delivery were enrolled.

Background: Sodium homeostasis is crucial for physiological balance, yet the neurobiological mechanisms underlying sodium appetite remain incompletely understood. The nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) integrates visceral signals to regulate feeding behaviors, including sodium intake. This study investigated the role of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (HSD2)-expressing neurons in the NTS in mediating sodium appetite under low-sodium diet (LSD) conditions and elucidated the molecular pathways involved, particularly the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade.
