BACKGROUND: Our research team previously found that fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21, a circulating hormone, was significantly associated with atherosclerosis in human and animal models. The relationship between FGF21 and blood pressure (BP) is rare...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between CBC-derived inflammatory markers (NLR, PLR, NPAR, SII, SIRI, and AISI) and all-cause mortality (ACM) risk in arthritis (AR) patients with hypertensive (HTN) using data from the NHANES.

Arsenic (As)-induced hypertension is a significant public health concern, highlighting the need for early risk prediction. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for occupational As exposure and hypertension using metabolomics and machine lea...
OBJECTIVE: Hypertension is a major cardiovascular risk factor affecting about 1 in 3 adults. Although the majority of hypertension cases (∼90%) are classified as "primary hypertension" (PHT), endocrine hypertension (EHT) accounts for ∼10% of cases an...
BACKGROUND: The exposome framework seeks to unravel the cumulated effects of environmental exposures on health. However, existing methods struggle with challenges including multicollinearity, non-linearity and confounding. To address these limitation...
Hip fractures in the elderly present a significant public health challenge globally, especially among patients with hypertension, who are at an increased risk of developing preoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT). DVT not only heightens surgical risk...
OBJECTIVE: Electronic health records (EHR) are widely available to complement administrative data-based disease surveillance and healthcare performance evaluation. Defining conditions from EHR is labour-intensive and requires extensive manual labelli...
Chronic diseases are a critical focus in the management of elderly health. Early disease prediction plays a vital role in achieving disease prevention and reducing the associated burden on individuals and healthcare systems. Traditionally, separate m...
