Association between charcoal cooking fuel and cardiovascular disease prevalence in Haiti: a cross-sectional analysis

Environmental Health
Background There is little evidence on the association between cooking with polluting fuels, particularly charcoal, and heart disease from low- and middle-income countries, which have the highest burdens of polluting fuels and cardiovascular disease (CVD)

Diagnostic Usefulness of Cell Block Samples in Fluid Overload‐Associated Large B‐Cell Lymphoma

Diagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluid overload‐associated B‐cell lymphoma (FO‐LBCL) is a B‐cell neoplasm that presents as serous effusions without detectable tumor masses and Kaposi sarcoma‐associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8) infection. Here, we report a case of an 81‐year‐old female patient with FO‐LBCL (Stage IVA) who presented with pericardial and ...

Non–AIDS‐Defining Cancer Incidence in People With HIV in Milan, Italy, 2000–2023: Temporal Trends and Comparison With the General Population

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with HIV (PWH) are living longer, but contemporary data on non–AIDS‐defining cancers (NADCs) in Italy remain limited. We assessed incident cancers in a retrospective cohort of PWH in Milan, Italy, between January 2000 and December 2023. Follow‐up was grouped into 2000–2007, 2008–2015, and 2016–2023. Incidence rates (IRs) were calculated

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy among adults in a population-based cohort in Haiti

Scientific Reports
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality; yet the means to diagnose LVH in resource-constrained settings remain limited.

Shared genetic and molecular architecture between neurodevelopmental disorders and type 1 diabetes

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Epidemiological and clinical studies have suggested possible associations between type 1 diabetes (T1D) and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), but these relationships remain inconsistent across disorders and populations. To clarify whether such mixed findings, we investigated the genetic architecture linking T1D with autism spectrum disorder
