Accuracy of Apple Watch in Measuring 30-Second Resting Electrocardiography in Patients with Cardiac Diseases and Comorbidity: An Observational Cross-Sectional Study by Khushhal AA, Mohamed AA, Alsegame MM, Alsaedi AM

“…The Apple Watch has recently been used to measure heart electricity via 30 seconds of ECG monitoring, but its validity is not known.Methods: A cross-sectional study included a sample of 112 patients with chronic disorders, including cardiac patients with sinus rhythm, cardiac patients with irregular heart rhythm, and patients with diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia; their cardiac activity was investigated using the Apple Watch and ECG.Results: The correlations were strong between the Apple Watch and the 12-lead ECG in the heart rate, PR intervals, QT intervals, QRS complex, and RR intervals in all patients’ subcategories (cardiac, hypertension, diabetic, and dyslipidemia patients).Conclusion: The Apple Watch is valid for carrying out ECG in measuring the heart rate, PR intervals, QT intervals, QRS complex, and RR intervals of patients with cardiac and chronic diseases at rest; this may help in initial diagnosis for patients with cardiac diseases or those who are at risk of developing cardiac disease in the future.Keywords: Apple Watch, electrocardiography, cardiac diseases, chronic diseases…”

Effects of Neural Stem Cells combine with Nerve Growth Factor Nanoparticles Transplantation in Alzheimer's Disease Transgenic Mice by Qing ZHU, Shuai SHAO, Nan HU, Yan CHEN

“…Thioflavine-T staining was used to detect the numbers of Aβ plaques in the hippocampus and cortex.Results:①After transplantation for four weeks, EGFP-positive NSC survived in the brain, migrated extensively to corpus callosum, cortex and deep hippocampus, and differentiated into neurons and glial cells, NSC in the combined group survived more than those in the NSC transplant group and showed more complex synaptic morphology.②The number of ChAT neurons in the basal forebrain of the NSC transplant group and the combined group increased significantly(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05), compared with the NSC transplant group, the gene expression of ChAT and Lhx8 in the combined group were increased significantly(<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).③The number of Aβ plaques in hippocampus and cortex of the NSC transplant group and the combined group didn't decreased significantly(<italic>P</italic>&gt;0.05).Conclusion:NSC combined with NGF nanoparticles transplantation could indirectly protect cholinergic neurons in the basal forebrain and the survival and maturation of transplanted NSC, and promote the gene expression of ChAT and Lhx8 in the basal forebrain, but could not reduce the number of Aβ plaques in the hippocampus and cortex.…”
