To assess the prognostic value of anti-apolipoprotein A-1 (anti-apoA-1) IgG after myocardial infarction (MI) and its association with major cardiovascular events (MACEs) at 12 months and to determine their association with resting heart rate (RHR), a well-established prognostic feature after MI. Anti-apoA-1 IgG have been reported in MI without autoimmune disease, but their clinical significance remains undetermined. A total of 221 consecutive patients with MI were prospectively included, and all completed ...

Objective: Gliderite®, one of the first stylets designed specifically to assist tracheal intubation with non-channeled curved blades video laryngoscopes, can cause injury.The S-Guide® is a new, malleable, intubating guide allowing oxygenation.Its soft tip is designed to prevent trauma.We aimed to compare the duration of tracheal intubation with S-Guide compared to Gliderite using a C-MAC® D-Blade® video laryngoscope in patients with simulated difficult airways. Methods:We performed a single-blinded ...

Coronary artery disease (CAD) events have been associated with certain antiretroviral therapy (ART) agents. In contrast, the influence of ART on subclinical atherosclerosis is not clear. The study objective was to assess the association between individual ART agents and the prevalence and extent of subclinical CAD. Coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) were performed in ≥45-year-old Swiss Human Immunodeficiency Virus Cohort Study participants. The following ...

People with HIV (HIV+) may have increased cardiovascular event rates compared with HIV-negative (HIV-) persons. Cross-sectional data from the United States and Switzerland, based on coronary artery calcium scan (CAC) and coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), suggest, respectively, increased and similar prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis in HIV+ vs HIV- persons.We repeated CAC/CCTA in 340 HIV+ and 90 HIV- study participants >2 years after baseline CAC/CCTA. We assessed the association ...

Background Apolipoprotein A-1 (Apo A-1) is the major protein fraction of high-density lipoproteins whose protective role in the cardiovascular system has been established.Anti-Apo A-1 IgG autoantibodies were described in autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus and antiphospholipid syndrome and might be involved in the genesis of arterial and venous thrombotic events.Anti-Apo A-1 on August 17,

In people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (PWH), individual polygenic risk scores (PRSs) are associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) events. Whether PRSs are associated with subclinical CAD is unknown.In Swiss HIV Cohort Study participants of European descent, we defined subclinical CAD as presence of soft, mixed, or high-risk plaque (SMHRP) on coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography, or as participants in the top tertile of the study population's coronary artery calcium (CAC) score, ...
