Prediction of biological age and all-cause mortality by 12-lead electrocardiogram in patients without structural heart disease

BMC Geriatrics, 2021
Background There is a well-established relationship between 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) and age and mortality. Furthermore, there is increasing evidence that ECG can be used to predict biological age.

All-cause excess mortality and COVID-19-related deaths in Iran [PDF]

Medical Journal of The Islamic Republic of Iran, 2020
Background: Iran reported its first COVID-19 deaths on February 19, 2020 and announced 1284 deaths with a laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection by March 19, 2020 (end of the winter 1398 SH). We estimated all-cause excess mortality, compared to the historical trends, to obtain an indirect estimate of COVID-19-related deaths.

HYPERTENSION MANAGEMENT IN ALL CAUSE SUDDEN DEATH

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2020
Patients with hypertension (HTN) have increased risk of sudden death, but blood pressure control in sudden death is not clear. To better understand potential opportunities to prevent sudden death, we assessed blood pressures, comorbidities and control among all cause sudden death victims.

Resistin as a risk factor for all-cause (and cardiovascular) death in the general population

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractSerum resistin is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that has been described as a risk factor associated with mortality in several clinical sets including type 2 diabetes. Mortality studies in the general population are needed to find out the risk of death associated to this cytokine.

Effect of dialytic phosphate reduction rate on mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients: a matched case–control study

BMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Phosphates, similar to urea, are small molecular substances that can be cleared during dialysis. Dialytic phosphate reduction rate (PRR) may, to some extent, be related to the relative amount of phosphates cleared during dialysis. However, few
