This retrospective cohort study investigated the incidence and risk factors of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after 1 year first-documented myocardial infarctions (MIs) in a multi-ethnic Asian population. Secondary MACE were observed 231 (14.3%) individuals, including 92 (5.7%) cardiovascular-related deaths. Both histories hypertension diabetes associated with secondary adjustment for age, sex, ethnicity (HR 1.60 [95%CI 1.22–2.12] 1.46 1.09–1.97], respectively). With further...
The effects of tobacco smoke on the central and peripheral airways were assessed in humans rats by direct indirect methods. In both species affected airways. there apparent decreases 1-second forced expiratory volume, peak flow rate significant increases closing volume capacity (P < 0.001). changes seen specific airway resistance from 6th week exposure onwards. Similarly, luminal diameter decreased markedly tobacco-exposed animals to subthreshold concentrations acetylcholine (10-8M), This...
Although the burden of premature myocardial infarction (MI) is high in Malaysia, direct evidence on determinants MI this multi-ethnic population remains sparse.The Malaysian Acute Vascular Events Risk (MAVERIK) study a retrospective case-control established to investigate genomic, lipid-related, and other acute Malaysia. In paper, we report protocol early results.By June 2019, had enrolled approximately 2500 patients with their first controls without cardiovascular disease, who were...
We aimed to determine the prevalence, characteristics, and risk factors associated with asymptomatic COVID-19 cases in a district setting Malaysia. included all confirmed within from inception March 2021. Out of 3,051 cases, 1,862 (61.0%) were asymptomatic. Asymptomatic mostly men, younger, non-Malaysians had fewer comorbidities. The highest prevalence was prisons factories. Male gender (adjusted OR 2.02; 95%CI 1.69 – 2.43), 20.00; 14.75 27.64), current smoking status 12.06; 6.74 23.94),...

A method is described for the direct measurement of changes in luminal diameter at all levels airway. Using this it was found that (i) abrupt bronchiolar collapse occurred preterminal and terminal bronchioles once reduced to a critical level: (ii) decreased temperatures resulted airway narrowing which reversed by increasing temperature above 25 degrees C; as rule, followed cranial caudal direction, higher concentration drug being required close peripheral airways; (iii) bronchodilators...
