Tissue Doppler echocardiography predicts long-term cardiovascular mortality: the Anglo-Scandinavian Cardiac Outcomes Trial (ASCOT) legacy 20-year follow-up study by Simon Thom, Alice Stanton, Jamil Mayet, Amit Kaura, Darrel Francis, Anoop SV Shah, Andrew Sharp, Alun D Hughes, Neil R Poulter, Anenta Ratneswaren, Tong Wu, Somayeh Rostamian, Devan Wasan, PS Sever

“…Cardiovascular mortality was defined as death from coronary heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular aetiology such as heart failure or peripheral vascular disease. Unadjusted and adjusted Cox regression survival models were constructed to investigate the association between tissue Doppler echocardiography measurements and long-term cardiovascular mortality.Results Among 506 hypertensive patients (median age 64, interquartile range (58, 69), 87% male), there were 200 (40%) deaths over a 20-year follow-up period. 60 deaths (12%) were cardiovascular-related.A reduction in e′ was independently associated with increased cardiovascular mortality, after adjusting for the ACC/AHA Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) risk score, with an inverse HR of 1.22 per 1 cm/s decrease (95% CI 1.04–1.43). …”

“…The objective of this study is to examine the correlation between the CALLY index and all-cause mortality in COPD patients.Methods: We calculated the CALLY index using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for the 2007– 2008 and 2009– 2010 cycles, extracted from the participants’ peripheral blood samples. The study utilized Kaplan-Meier curves, restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves, and Cox regression analysis to evaluate the relationship between the CALLY index and the risk of all-cause mortality in COPD patients. …”

The Role of β-Catenin in Th1 Immune Response against Tuberculosis and Profiles of Expression in Patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis by Kunlong Xiong, Jinxia Niu, Ruijuan Zheng, Zhonghua Liu, Yanzheng Song, Lin Wang, Changtai Zhu, Lin Fan

“…The stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with lithium chloride (LiCl), a stimulant of β-catenin, resulted in the increase in CD4+ T cell frequency, as well as their secretion of IFN-γ and TNF-α. β-Catenin demonstrated a moderately positive correlation with PD-1 in CD4+ T cells. β-Catenin along with PD-1 and IFN-γ in CD4+ T cells had a high correlation with those in CD8+ T cells. …”

Cyclophilin–CD147 interaction enables SARS-CoV-2 infection of human monocytes and their activation via Toll-like receptors 7 and 8 by Gabor Tajti, Laura Gebetsberger, Gregor Pamlitschka, Katharina Aigner-Radakovics, Judith Leitner, Peter Steinberger, Hannes Stockinger, Anna Ohradanova-Repic

“…Surprisingly, we observed that recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S) and Nucleocapsid (N) proteins triggered only a weak proinflammatory response in human peripheral blood monocytes. By employing THP-1 and Jurkat NF-κB::eGFP reporter cell lines expressing specific TLRs, various TLR ligands and blocking antibodies, we determined that surface TLRs, including TLR2/1, TLR2/6 and TLR4 do not play a major role in SARS-CoV-2 sensing. …”
