Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. We aimed to evaluate the impact of malnutrition risk at admission assessed using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) on AKI and mortality in patients with ACS. We enrolled 3185 ACS patients fr...

Dairy products are a very diverse food group with multiple effects on the cardiac health of men and women. The aim of this work was to evaluate the sex-specific association between dairy products (total and subtypes) and 10-year first fatal/nonfatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence. In 2001-2002, n = 1514 men and n = 1528 women (>18 years old...

The present study investigated the association between abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) and handgrip strength (HGS) and the ability of HGS to predict an increased AAC phenotype in adults. The analysis consisted of data for 3140 men and women aged ≥40 years (51.7% women) from the 2013-2014 NHANES. Lateral scans of the thoraco-lumbar spine (L1-L4...

Triglyceride and glycose (TyG) index has been viewed as a reliable surrogate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. We hypothesized that elevated TyG index is associated with increased risk of subclinical myocardial injury (SC-MI). A total of 6093 participants without history of CVD were extracted from the third National Health and Nutrition Examina...

Obesity has been suggested as a possible risk factor for a more severe course of COVID-19; however, conclusive evidence is lacking and few studies have investigated the role of BMI as a risk factor for admission to intensive care unit (ICU) and mortality. We retrospectively analyzed a COVID-19 cohort recruited during the first 40 days of the epidem...
