Association of ventricular–arterial coupling with biomarkers involved in heart failure pathophysiology – the STANISLAS cohort

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Association of ventricular–arterial coupling with heart failure (HF) biomarkers in the STANISLAS cohort. MMP, matrix metalloproteinase; NT‐proBNP, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide. Aims Impaired left ventricular–arterial coupling (VAC) has been shown to correlate with worse prognosis in cardiac diseases and heart failure (HF).

Experiences and meaning of loneliness beyond age and group identity

Sociology of Health &Illness, Volume 45, Issue 1, Page 70-89, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Research into loneliness has focussed on subpopulations, and in particular those defined by age, identifying specific contextual factors contributing to their experiences. We suggest that the ‘essence’ of loneliness cannot be fully captured by examining a unitary group and argue for broader and diverse sampling to better understand how ...

Remote patient monitoring in heart failure: A comprehensive meta‐analysis of effective programme components for hospitalization and mortality reduction

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Remote patient monitoring in heart failure (HF). Abstract AimsMethods of non‐invasive remote patient monitoring (RPM) for heart failure (HF) remain diverse. Understanding factors that influence the effectiveness of RPM on HF‐related and all‐cause hospitalizations, mortality, and emergency department visits is crucial for developing successful RPM ...

Finerenone, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and heart failure with mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction: A prespecified analysis of the FINEARTS‐HF trial

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The beneficial effects of finerenone in patients with heart failure (HF) and mildly reduced or preserved ejection fraction were consistent, regardless of a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) status. BMI, body mass index; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; NT‐proBNP, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide.

Maintained Smoking Cessation for 6 Months Equilibrates the Percentage of Sputum CD8+ Lymphocyte Cells with That of Nonsmokers

Mediators of Inflammation, 2009
Little is known about the longitudinal effects of smoking cessation on sputum inflammatory cells. We aimed to investigate the changes in sputum inflammatory cells and T-lymphocyte subpopulations after 6 and 12 months smoking cessation. Induced sputum was

Investigating the Spillover Mechanisms of Payment Incentives on the Outcomes for Non‐Targeted Patients

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Payment reforms in healthcare can have spillover effects on the care experienced by non‐targeted patients treated by the same provider. Few empirical studies have quantitatively investigated the mechanisms behind these effects. We formulate theory‐driven hypotheses to investigate the spillover mechanisms of a regional payment reform in the ...

Subculture wars: The struggle for the vape industry

The British Journal of Sociology, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 3-16, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Drawing on a 2‐year study, I argue that the UK vape industry is engaged in a classificatory struggle between a subcultural industry and its “other”, the mainstream industry. I build on Thornton's analysis of club culture to characterize the subcultural vape industry as a community of taste built round a masculine aesthetic and a commitment to ...

Smoking cessation and COPD [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2013
The mainstay in smoking cessation is counselling in combination with varenicline, nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) or bupropion SR. Varenicline and combination of two NRTs is equally effective, while varenicline alone is more effective than either NRT or bupropion SR.
