Summary: The combination of rivaroxaban and aspirin reduces overall cardiovascular mortality and specific cause-specific cardiovascular mortality in patients with chronic CAD or PAD. The mortality benefits increase with higher baseline risk factors.

Summary: An analysis of National Health Insurance data in Korea showed that pre-existing depression does not have a significant impact on mortality in patients with established coronary artery disease undergoing PCI. However, younger patients with angina and depression may have a higher risk of all-cause mortality.

Summary: This study evaluated the prevalence, clinical relevance, and prognostic outcomes of malnutrition in patients with ACS treated with percutaneous coronary intervention. The study found that malnutrition is prevalent among ACS patients and is closely associated with increased mortality.

Summary: Research shows that compared with never-smokers, current smokers and former smokers have higher risks of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in patients with stable coronary artery disease. Even after quitting smoking, cardiovascular risk remains elevated compared to never-smokers but lower than current smokers, emphasizing the importance of smoking cessation.

Summary: This study found that maintaining or adopting an active lifestyle can reduce all-cause mortality risk in patients with CHD, especially for those who remained active. The results also suggest that the benefits of past activity in reducing CVD mortality risk may be lost if appropriate physical activity is not maintained.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of gender on short-term outcomes after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) surgery. The results showed that gender had no significant effect on postoperative mortality rate and other secondary outcomes. This study suggests that gender does not play a crucial role in postoperative recovery after OPCAB surgery.

Summary: Nutritional status has a significant effect on coronary atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients, and malnutrition can lead to the progression of coronary artery disease. Optical coherence tomography can be used to evaluate the impact of nutritional status on coronary atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients.

Summary: This study found that among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, lower levels of vitamin D are associated with over a 3-fold increased risk of mortality and major cardiovascular events. Future larger studies are needed to further explore the prognostic implications of cholecalciferol supplementation in high-risk patients with established coronary artery disease.

Summary: The risk of coronary disease is increased in breast cancer patients after radiotherapy, with left breast cancer patients having a higher risk compared to right breast cancer patients. The incidence of coronary disease is strongly correlated with radiation doses.

Summary: This study examines the association between dietary betaine intake and the risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients with coronary artery diseases. The findings suggest that higher dietary betaine intake is associated with a lower risk of all-cause and cardiovascular death. However, the association between dietary betaine intake and all-cause mortality is no longer significant after adjusting for other confounding factors.
