Chest pain accounts for up to 1% of visits to GPs in England, about 700000 visits (5%) to emergency departments and up to 25% of emergency admissions to hospitals. Recent epidemiological studies indicate a substantial and increasing rate of admissions with chest pain even as admissions with acute
Impaired mobility is strongly linked to cognitive function and vice versa. Cognitive functions are strongly associated with mobility function, most commonly assessed using gait speed. In the Health ABC Study, Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST) and Modified Mini Mental Status (3MS) scores were
INTRODUCTION Cognitive impairment, a principal cause for functional disability among the elderly, can lead to dementing illness over time mainly in the forms of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD). In fact, AD prevalence is expected to rise, reaching 100 million worldwide by 2050,
Recently, a direct link between intestinal microbiota, dietary phosphatidylcholine, and promotion of cardiovascular disease has been elegantly demonstrated. In this study, broad spectrum antibiotics were employed to disrupt the intestinal microbiota, and metabolomic analysis identified 3 metabolites
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical, radiological and biological data of 28 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of CAA-ri between 2004 and 2016, in 6 different neurological centers from Occitanie in the south of France (Montpellier, Toulouse, Nimes, Narbonne, Bezier, Perpignan). Inclusion
Amyloidosis is a multi-organ syndrome, which usually presents as a restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). Transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis is a subtype of amyloidosis, further subdivided into familial type and senile type. Its pathophysiology consists primarily of abnormal precipitation of transthyretin -

The objectives are:
- To assess frequency of cortical infarcts in the cohort of patients recruited consecutively likely AAFC GHPSJ since 2007
- To assess the link between the presence of myocardial infarction and the clinical characteristics of patients and
- To study the
Similarly for early detection of SIRS/Sepsis, interleukin 6 (IL-6) assays have been brought up for discussion and have been studied extensively over last years. IL-6 is pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokine with multimodal functions in physiology and patho- physiology: As a major regulator of hepatic
The investigators use both psychological tests and neuroimage to compare the differences between the two groups.
All the participants received a battery of neuropsychological tests to assess general mental status and other cognitive domains, including visual-spatial ability, executive function,
Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) have associated atherosclerotic renal and cerebral disease making these organs especially vulnerable to ischemia during open heart surgery. At the Heart Center at Rigshospitalet in Copenhagen the investigators perform more than 1000 open heart surgery
1. Retinal correlations with neurodegeneration:
1. Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) pattern will differ in participants in the MCI and early stages of LBD spectrum, AD, and VCI, relative to normal elders. i) RNFL thinning around the optic disc and macular thinning will correlate with hippocampal
