    Abstract: The authors compare the effectiveness and safety of endovascular treatment (EVT) versus best medical management (BMM) in strokes attributable to acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO). Methods: The present analysis was based on the ongoing, prospective, multicenter ATTENTION (Endovascular Treatment for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion) trial registry in China. Our analytic sample comprised 2134 patients recruited at 48 sites between 2017 and 2021 and included 462 patients who received BMM and 1672 patients who received EVT. We performed an inversed probability of treatment weighting analysis. Qualifying patients had to present within 24 hours of estimated BAO. The primary clinical outcome was favorable functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale score, 0–3) at 90 days. We also performed a sensitivity analysis with the propensity score matching–based and the instrumental variable–based analysis. Results: In our primary analysis using the inversed probability of treatment weighting–based analysis, there was a significantly higher rate of favorable outcome at 90 days among EVT patients compared with BMM-treated patients (adjusted relative risk, 1.42 [95% CI, 1.19–1.65]; absolute risk difference, 11.8% [95% CI, 6.9–16.7] ). The mortality was significantly lower (adjusted relative risk, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.69–0.88]; absolute risk difference, −10.3% [95% CI, −15.8 to −4.9] ) in patients undergoing EVT. Results were generally consistent across the secondary end points. Similar associations were seen in the propensity score matching–based and instrumental variable–based analysis. Conclusions: In this real-world study, EVT was associated with significantly better functional outcomes and survival at 90 days. Well-designed randomized studies comparing EVT with BMM in the acute BAO are needed. Registration: URL: www.chictr.org.cn ; Unique identifier: ChiCTR2000041117.

    Abstract: To explore the effects of comprehensive nursing intervention on in vitro fertilization (IVF) and pregnancy outcomes in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Method: A total of 130 patients with PCOS admitted to our hospital from April 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the research subjects. They were evenly divided according to a random number table method. The control group received routine care for the patients, while the study group received comprehensive care for the patients. The IVF, pregnancy outcomes, negative emotional changes, serum and follicular fluid (FF) amyloid-related protein and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels of the 2 groups of patients were compared. Result: The data on IVF rate and pregnancy rate in the study group were significantly better than those in the control group ( P 〈 .05). The SAS and SDS scores of the study group patients after intervention were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P 〈 .05). After intervention, the levels of serum and FF amyloid associated protein and CRP in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P 〈 .05). Conclusion: Patients with PCOS who receive comprehensive care can increase their probability of IVF, improve their pregnancy outcomes, and have a positive significance in reducing negative emotions.

    Abstract: Breastfeeding confers substantial benefits to child health and has also been associated with lower risk of maternal cardiovascular diseases ( CVDs ) in later life. However, the evidence on the effects of CVD is still inconsistent, especially in East Asians, in whom the frequency and duration of breastfeeding significantly differ from those in the West. Methods and Results In 2004–2008, the nationwide China Kadoorie Biobank recruited 0.5 million individuals aged 30 to 79 years from 10 diverse regions across China. During 8 years of follow‐up, 16 671 incident cases of coronary heart disease and 23 983 cases of stroke were recorded among 289 573 women without prior CVD at baseline. Cox regression yielded adjusted hazard ratios ( HR s) and 95% CIs for incident CVD by breastfeeding. Overall, ≈99% of women had given birth, among whom 97% reported a history of breastfeeding, with a median duration of 12 months per child. Compared with parous women who had never breastfed, ever breastfeeding was associated with a significantly lower risk of CVD , with adjusted HR s of 0.91 (95% CI, 0.84–0.99) for coronary heart disease and 0.92 (95% CI, 0.85–0.99) for stroke. Women who had breastfed for ≥24 months had an 18% ( HR, 0.82; 0.77–0.87) lower risk of coronary heart disease and a 17% ( HR, 0.83; 0.79–0.87) lower risk of stroke compared with women who had never breastfed. Among women who ever breastfed, each additional 6 months of breastfeeding per child was associated with an adjusted HR of 0.96 (95% CI, 0.94–0.98) for coronary heart disease and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.96–0.98) for stroke. Conclusions Among Chinese women, a history of breastfeeding was associated with an ≈10% lower risk of CVD in later life and the magnitude of the inverse association was stronger among those with a longer duration of breastfeeding.

    Abstract: Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 ( PAI ‐1) plays an essential role in the fibrinolysis system and thrombosis. Population studies have reported that blood PAI ‐1 levels are associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease ( CHD ). However, it is unclear whether the association reflects a causal influence of PAI ‐1 on CHD risk. Methods and Results To evaluate the association between PAI ‐1 and CHD , we applied a 3‐step strategy. First, we investigated the observational association between PAI ‐1 and CHD incidence using a systematic review based on a literature search for PAI ‐1 and CHD studies. Second, we explored the causal association between PAI ‐1 and CHD using a Mendelian randomization approach using summary statistics from large genome‐wide association studies. Finally, we explored the causal effect of PAI ‐1 on cardiovascular risk factors including metabolic and subclinical atherosclerosis measures. In the systematic meta‐analysis, the highest quantile of blood PAI ‐1 level was associated with higher CHD risk comparing with the lowest quantile (odds ratio=2.17; 95% CI: 1.53, 3.07) in an age‐ and sex‐adjusted model. The effect size was reduced in studies using a multivariable‐adjusted model (odds ratio=1.46; 95% CI : 1.13, 1.88). The Mendelian randomization analyses suggested a causal effect of increased PAI ‐1 level on CHD risk (odds ratio=1.22 per unit increase of log‐transformed PAI ‐1; 95% CI : 1.01, 1.47). In addition, we also detected a causal effect of PAI ‐1 on elevating blood glucose and high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions Our study indicates a causal effect of elevated PAI ‐1 level on CHD risk, which may be mediated by glucose dysfunction.

    Abstract: Background: Individuals with an interleukin 6 receptor (IL6R) genetic variant not on IL6R blocking therapy have biomarker profiles similar to those treated with IL6R blockers. Thus, studying whether the IL6R variant is protective for a phenotype can inform which diseases may benefit from treatment with IL6R blockade. To test this hypothesis, we performed a Phenome-Wide Association Study (PheWAS) to screen for associations between an IL6R variant and a broad range of phenotypes in the electronic health records (EHR). Methods: We studied veteran participants in the Veteran’s Affairs Million Veteran’s Project using genomic data linked to EHR. We extracted all diagnoses codes and mapped them to phenotype groups using published PheWAS methods. Routine laboratory measurements, e.g. liver function tests, were also extracted. A PheWAS was performed by constructing logistic regression models testing associations between the IL6R variant (Asp358Ala, rs2228145) and 1,866 phenotype groups; linear regression models were constructed to screen for associations between IL6R and 26 routine laboratory measurements. All models were adjusted for age, gender, and race. Significance was reported using false discovery rate ≤0.05 and Bonferroni correction. Results: We studied 342,529 participants; the minor allele frequency of the IL6R variant was 35.3%. IL6R was most strongly associated with a reduced risk of aortic aneurysm (OR 0.91-0.92, 95% CI 0.89, 0.94) (Figure 1). We observed the expected association between IL6R and reduced C-reactive protein. We also observed known side effects of IL6R blockade, elevated transaminases, as well as elevated triglycerides, an initially unexpected result in the early clinical trials. Conclusion: In this proof of concept study, we demonstrate the utility of PheWAS to inform drug effects using the largest US-based biobank study. The strong association with aortic aneurysm corresponded with the newest indication for IL6R blockade to prevent aortic aneurysms due to large vessel vasculitis.

    Abstract: The underlying mechanisms of stroke-obesity paradox are still not fully understood. This study aims to investigate the contribution of insulin resistance to the association between body mass index and stroke outcomes. Methods— Patients with ischemic stroke without history of diabetes mellitus in the Abnormal Glucose Regulation in Patients With Acute Stroke Across-China registry were included. Overweight or obese was defined as body mass index ≥23, and the median of homeostasis model assessment–insulin resistance index was chosen as cutoff to define insulin resistance. Cox or logistic regression model was used to assess the interaction between body mass index and homeostasis model assessment–insulin resistance on 1-year prognosis (all-cause mortality and poor functional outcome defined as modified Rankin Scale score 3–6). Results— Of 1227 study participants, the median homeostasis model assessment–insulin resistance was 1.9 (interquartile range, 1.1–3.1) and 863 (70.3%) patients were classified as overweight or obese. Among insulin-resistant patients, overweight/obese patients experienced one-half of the risk of death after stroke than their low/normal weight counterparts (9.42% versus 17.69%, unadjusted hazard ratio, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.31–0.82), while among insulin-sensitive ones, no significant difference of mortality risk was found (7.58% versus 6.91%, 1.07; 0.57–1.99). Similar trends were observed for poor functional outcome. Results were similar after adjustments for confounders. There were significant interactions between body mass index and homeostasis model assessment–insulin resistance on the risks of mortality ( P =0.045) and poor functional outcome ( P =0.049). Conclusions— We observed the obesity paradox for mortality and functional outcome in insulin-resistant patients but did not find the obesity paradox in insulin-sensitive patients. Insulin resistance may be one of the mechanisms underlying the obesity paradox of the outcome in patients with ischemic stroke.

    Abstract: The uptake of proven stroke treatments varies widely. We aimed to determine the association of evidence‐based processes of care for acute ischemic stroke ( AIS ) and clinical outcome of patients who participated in the HEADPOST (Head Positioning in Acute Stroke Trial), a multicenter cluster crossover trial of lying flat versus sitting up, head positioning in acute stroke. Methods and Results Use of 8 AIS processes of care were considered: reperfusion therapy in eligible patients; acute stroke unit care; antihypertensive, antiplatelet, statin, and anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation; dysphagia assessment; and physiotherapist review. Hierarchical, mixed, logistic regression models were performed to determine associations with good outcome (modified Rankin Scale scores 0–2) at 90 days, adjusted for patient and hospital variables. Among 9485 patients with AIS, implementation of all processes of care in eligible patients, or “defect‐free” care, was associated with improved outcome (odds ratio, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.18–1.65) and better survival (odds ratio, 2.23; 95% CI , 1.62–3.09). Defect‐free stroke care was also significantly associated with excellent outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–1) (odds ratio, 1.22; 95% CI , 1.04–1.43). No hospital characteristic was independently predictive of outcome. Only 1445 (15%) of eligible patients with AIS received all processes of care, with significant regional variations in overall and individual rates. Conclusions Use of evidence‐based care is associated with improved clinical outcome in AIS . Strategies are required to address regional variation in the use of proven AIS treatments.

    Abstract: In the past 37 years, human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) has undergone various major transmission routes in China, with the world most complex co-circulating HIV-1 subtypes, even the prevalence is still low. In response to the first epidemic outbreak of HIV in injecting drug users and the second one by illegal commercial blood collection, China issued the Anti-Drug Law and launched the Blood Donation Act and nationwide nucleic acid testing, which has avoided 98,232 to 211,200 estimated infections and almost ended the blood product-related infection. China has been providing free antiretroviral therapy (ART) since 2003, which covered 〉 80% of the identified patients and achieved a viral suppression rate of 91%. To bend the curve of increasing the disease burden of HIV and finally end the epidemic, China should consider constraining HIV spread through sexual transmission, narrowing the gaps in identifying HIV cases, and the long-term effectiveness and safety of ART in the future.

    Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness but Not Carotid Artery Plaque in Healthy Individuals Is Linked to Lean Body Mass

    Abstract: Lean body mass has been identified as a key determinant of left ventricular mass and wall thickness. However, the importance of lean body mass or other body‐size measures as normative determinants of carotid intima‐media thickness ( cIMT ), a widely used early indicator of atherosclerosis, has not been well established. Methods and Results Carotid artery ultrasound measurements of cIMT and carotid artery plaque burden (derived from plaque number and maximum size) and measurements of body size, including height, body mass index, weight, body fat proportion, and lean body mass ([1−body fat proportion]×weight), were recorded in 25 020 participants from 10 regions of China. Analyses were restricted to a healthy younger subset (n=6617) defined as never or long‐term ex‐regular smokers aged 〈 60 years (mean age, 50) without previous ischemic heart disease, stroke, diabetes mellitus, or hypertension and with plasma non‐high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol 〈 4 mmol/L. Among these 6617 participants, 86% were women (because most men smoked) and 9% had carotid artery plaque. In both women and men separately, lean body mass was strongly positively associated with cIMT , but was not associated with plaque burden: overall, each 10 kg higher lean body mass was associated with a 0.03 (95% CI , 0.03–0.04) mm higher cIMT ( P =5×10 −33 ). Fat mass, height, and other body‐size measures were more weakly associated with cIMT . Conclusions The strong association of lean body mass with cIMT, but not with plaque burden, in healthy adults suggests a normative relationship rather than reflecting atherosclerotic pathology. Common mechanisms may underlie the associations of lean body mass with cIMT and with nonatherosclerotic vascular traits.
