Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 12th 2019
We examined 9293 individuals from the Copenhagen General Population Study using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurements of total cholesterol, free- and esterified cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, and particle concentration. Fourteen subclasses of decreasing size and their lipid constituents were analysed: six subclasses were very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), one intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), three low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and four subclasses were high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Remnant lipoproteins were VLDL and IDL combined. Mean nonfasting cholesterol concentration was 72â...

Playback Heart Sounds: The eKuore Pro Digital Stethoscope Review
The white coat, the stethoscope, and the physician are inseparable as of yet. While artificial intelligence promises to become the next symbol of medicine, the eKuore Pro “only” aims to bring a much needed revamp of this ever-useful, iconic medical instrument. We found this wireless digital stethoscope to be fairly easy to use and feature-rich despite being remarkably heavier and pricier than conventional stethoscopes. If you want to know a pinch more detail about how the eKuore Pro performed, read our digital stethoscope review below. From Vet to Med The very mention of the word ‘doctor’ might elici...

Why Cochrane is Wrong About Hypertension. Very Wrong.
By SWAPNIL HIREMATH, MD Archie Cochrane and the Cochrane Collaboration Archie Cochrane was born in Scotland, educated in London (King’s College, University College and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) and worked in Cardiff, Wales. His work as a doctor during the Spanish Civil War and World War II, especially in a prisoner of war camp in Salonica, is credited with his push towards generating higher quality evidence. In his description of the clinical trial he conducted, he mentions James Lind as his hero. Ironically, that clinical trial – with weak randomization, open allocation, non-blinding of inv...

Long term efficacy of ICD in Brugada Syndrome – Study from Brugada group
(Representative image from BMH Med. J. 2016;3(2):29-31) Efficacy of ICD (Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator) has to be shown to be good in a long term study of Brugada Syndrome patients by Hernandez-Ojeda et al [1] from Prof. Brugada’s group in Spain. Of the 370 patients with Brugada Syndrome 104 received an ICD (28.1%).  21 patients had a total of 81 appropriate shocks over a follow up period of  9.3 ± 5.1 years. This is would mean 2.2 per 100 person-years of appropriate ICD shocks. As expected, appropriate shocks were significantly higher in those who received the ICD for secondary prevention (p<0.01)....

On the eve of ESC 2014 — Barcelona Spain
The 2014 European Society of Cardiology Congress begins tomorrow in Barcelona, Spain. I’m here with my colleagues from the theheart.org Medscape | Cardiology to cover the action. ESC is special because it is such a large meeting, with over 30,000 registered attendees and more than 500 journalists. This year’s addition has an added flair–as the most anticipated cardiology trial in years is scheduled to be announced tomorrow. It’s called Paradigm-HF, and it’s a large multi-center randomized controlled trial comparing the novel drug, LCZ696, to standard ACE-inhibitor for the treatment of congesti...
