Heart Rhythm.
  • The study evaluated the link between notched P waves & life-threatening arrhythmic events in 510 Brugada syndrome patients (mean age 51 y; 95% men) followed for 107 months
  • Cardiac events occurred in 11%, notched P waves were present in 10% & predicted higher event incidence (27% vs 10%)
  • Cox regression confirmed notched P wave as an independent predictor of cardiac events (HR 2.63), alongside prior VF history.

J Obesity.
  • A hospital based study (n=169) examined mediation of lipid biomarkers on links between anthropometric/dietary indicators & insulin resistance (IR)
  • Lipid biomarkers mediated the link between WHtR & IR fully (Indirect Coef = 0.65), TG mediated the link between IR & WHR (0.55), BMI (0.76), & WC (0.72)
  • LDL C (1.99) & HDL C (0.55) mediated diet–IR links, sex moderated the impact of WC on IR (interaction Coef = 5.11)

J Neurol.
  • Temporal patterns suggested that individuals with both self reported and drug treated anxiety or depression had double the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease vs. non-exposed (HR 2.02)
  • The risk was highest in those treated for both conditions (HR 3.18)
  • No increased risk was seen with only one criterion
  • The association weakened with longer intervals and disappeared beyond 10 years.

Diabetes Metab Syndr...
  • Systematic review/meta-analysis of 44 studies examined the link between circulating fatty acids (FA) & GDM risk
  • Per 1 SD increase in C16:0 raised odds (OR 1.20), very long chain saturated FAs (C22:0, C24:0) & omega 6 FAs (C18:2, C20:2, C22:4) lowered odds of GDM
  • Women with GDM had lower C22:0, C15:0, C17:0
  • FA form & measurement units explained heterogeneity, distinct FA profiles were associated with GDM risk.
