Plasma biomarkers for predicting heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction by Guihong Rong, Xiao Wang, Xinling Qin, Yanxia Wang, Meilian Quan, Chunfeng Xi

“…Background: Heart failure (HF) following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is characterized by high mortality and disability rates, which highlights the need of timely and effective revascularization. Recent studies suggested the potential predictivity of biomarkers NT-proBNP, cTNT, PLR, NLR, and GDF-15 in cardiovascular events, but their value in HF patients post-AMI still require further verification. …”

How does a social norms-based intervention affect behaviour change? Interim findings from a cluster randomised controlled trial in Odisha, India by Hagere Yilma, Erica Sedlander, Satyanarayan Mohanty, Ichhya Pant, Jeffrey Bingenheimer, Lipika Patro, Rohini Ganjoo, Rajiv Rimal

“…Using nested models, we analysed data from three different intervention components, monthly community-based testing for anaemia, participatory group education sessions, and videos, to determine the extent to which exposure to each of these components accounted for the overall intervention effect on haemoglobin and self-reported IFA use.Results Overall, residing in a treatment as opposed to control village had little effect on midline haemoglobin, but increased the odds of taking supplements by 17 times. Exposure to each of the intervention components had a dose–response relationship with self-reported IFA use. …”
