Mashup Score: 7
Improvement in cardiovascular health was associated with lower multimorbidity risk in two community-based cohort studies. Interventions improving cardiovascular health of the community may contribute to multimorbidity prevention.

Mashup Score: 1
Background Elevated heart rate (HR) predicts cardiovascular disease and mortality, but there are no established normal limits for ambulatory HR. We used data from the Swedish CArdioPulmonary Imaging Study to determine reference ranges for ambulatory HR in a middle-aged population. We also studied clinical correlates of ambulatory HR. Methods A 24-hour ECG was registered in 5809 atrial fibrillation-free individuals, aged 50–65 years. A healthy subset (n=3942) was used to establish reference values (excluding persons with beta-blockers, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, heart failure, anaemia, diabetes, sleep apnoea or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Minimum HR was defined as the lowest 1-minute HR. Reference ranges are reported as means±SDs and 2.5th–97.5th percentiles. Clinical correlates of ambulatory HR were analysed with multivariable linear regression. Results The average mean and minimum HRs were 73±9 and 48±7 beats per minute (bpm) in men and 76±8 and 51±7 bpm in wome

Mashup Score: 23MACE in COPD: addressing cardiopulmonary risk - 16 day(s) ago
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cardiovascular disease are both major global public health burdens, with a burden of 74·4 million and 393 million disability-adjusted life-years, respectively, in 2019.1,2 Given shared exposures and risk factors (eg, smoking, socioeconomic deprivation, diabetes, hypertension, low levels of exercise, and dyslipidaemia), it is not surprising that many people living with COPD have cardiovascular disease. Patients with COPD are two to five times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease compared with the general population.

Our SR & meta-analysis found that prediction models for incident chronic kidney disease in community-based electronic health records have good performance, but limited clinical use due to high risk of bias, low evidence certainty & a lack of impact studies.https://t.co/6TI9DUjtsA
