The Impact of Complete Revascularization in Symptomatic Severe Left Ventricular Dysfunction between Coronary Artery Bypass Graft and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention by Hsiu-Yu Fang, Yen-Nan Fang, Yin-Chia Chen, Jiunn-Jye Sheu, Wei-Chieh Lee

“…The 1-year heart failure (HF) hospitalization rate was significantly lower in the CABG group than in all patients of the PCI group (13.2% vs. 33.3%; p=0.035); however, there was no significant difference in the same variable between the CABG group and the complete revascularization subgroup (13.2% vs. 28.2%; p=0.160). The revascularization index (RI) was significantly higher in the CABG group than in all patients of the PCI group or complete revascularization subgroup (0.93 ± 0.12 vs. 0.71 ± 0.25; p<0.001) and (0.93 ± 0.12 vs. 0.86 ± 0.13; p=0.019). …”

Commutator Length of Finitely Generated Linear Groups by Mahboubeh Alizadeh Sanati

“…The commutator length “cl(𝐺)” of a group 𝐺 is the least natural number 𝑐 such that every element of the derived subgroup of 𝐺 is a product of 𝑐 commutators. We give an upper bound for cl(𝐺) when 𝐺 is a 𝑑-generator nilpotent-by-abelian-by-finite group. …”

A Comparison between Enriched and Nonenriched Enrollment Randomized Withdrawal Trials of Opioids for Chronic Noncancer Pain by Andrea D Furlan, Luis E Chaparro, Emma Irvin, Angela Mailis-Gagnon

“…Some investigators defend the use of enrichment designs for opioids in chronic noncancer pain (CNCP), reasoning that opioids may appear to underperform in clinically heterogeneous contexts, ie, that substantial efficacy in a particular patient subgroup may be diluted or masked by poor efficacy in another subgroup. …”

Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Blood Glucose Among Those with Prediabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis by Tianyi Jiang, Zichen Ye, Qu Lu, Peixia Cheng, Qi Gao

“…Compared to the control group, the weighted mean difference (MD) for FBG, 2hPG, and HbA1c was −1.33 (95%CI: −1.87, −0.89), −1.00 (95%CI: −1.60, −0.39), and −1.05 (95%CI: −1.49, −0.61), respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that pooled effect size for FBG, 2hPG, and HbA1c was greater in the subgroup subjected to ≥48 weeks of intervention compared to the subgroup subjected to ≤24 weeks of intervention, although only the difference in FBG was significant (<i>p</i> < 0.05). …”

Cardiac Myosin-binding Protein-C as a Biomarker in the Early Diagnosis of Acute Coronary Syndrome and Differentiation of Its Types by Ali Abdul Rasool Hussein, Abdulkareem Hamadi Issa, Abbas Naji Muslem Al Shareeifi

“…The cMybp-C levels showed a significant positive correlation with hsCT-I levels on admission in STEMI and NSTEMI subgroups but not in UA subgroup. The cMybp-C levels also showed a significant positive correlation with hscT-I levels 3 h after admission in STEMI and NSTEMI subgroups but not in UA subgroup. …”

Effects of two kinds of vestibular function training on reducing motion sickness in college students by Linyao Shi, Jing Zhao, Jiamei Lu, Chuanxia Cao, Qikun Zhang, Chuanjing Qiu, Zhanguo Jin, Shengguang Yan, Shengguang Yan, Shengguang Yan

“…When the two groups were stratified into high and low-susceptibility subgroups, the low-susceptibility subgroup of the electric rotating chair group had lower Graybiel scores and diastolic blood pressures than the low-susceptibility visual-motion cage rotating chair subgroup, whereas in the high susceptibility subgroup, LF, rMSSD, and pNN50 were significantly higher in the visual-motion cage rotating chair group than in the electric rotating chair group.DiscussionThis study compared the effects of two types of vestibular function training on Graybiel scores and heart rate variability (HRV). we found that seven days of training with both the electric rotating chair and the visual-motion cage rotating chair relieved MS symptoms and enhanced sympathetic regulation. …”

Space-Time Defects and Group Momentum Space by Michele Arzano, Tomasz Trześniewski

“…We also conjecture that massless defects in n-dimensional de Sitter space can be analogously characterized by holonomies belonging to the same subgroup. This shows how group-valued momenta related to four-dimensional deformations of relativistic symmetries can arise in the description of motion of space-time defects.…”
