Abstract

The article discusses research which evaluated the one-hour post-load glucose measurement (1-hour glucose) in conjunction with body mass index (BMI) in predicting mortality and development of diabetes over 44 years of follow-up. The study involved 2756 healthy men with 1-hour glucose and were not diagnosed with diabetes or cardiovascular disease at baseline. A strong and graded association was noted between 1-hour glucose quartiles and both total and cardiovascular mortality and occurrence of diabetes.

Abstract

The article discusses a study on the association between proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and all-cause mortality in two groups of institutionalized people. An analysis of data from two prospective cohort studies in Helsinki, Finland with 1,004 residents from long-term care wards and 425 residents aged at least 70 years in acute geriatric wards was conducted. The findings showed an association between baseline PPI use and all-cause mortality in institutionalized older people with high risk of death from infections, hip fractures and vascular complications.
