TL;DR: In conclusion, blood pressure–lowering therapy produced comparable risk reductions in vascular disease across the whole range of body mass indices in participants with a history of stroke, and the greater baseline level of cardiovascular risk in those with higher body mass index meant that these patients obtained the greatest benefit.

Individual variation in urinary sodium excretion among adolescent girls on a fixed intake
Connie M. Weaver,Berdine R. Martin,George P. McCabe,Linda D McCabe,Mark Woodward,Cheryl A.M. Anderson,Lawrence J. Appel +6 more
TL;DR: The high intraindividual variability in urinary sodium excretion on a fixed diet highlights the potential for substantial error in using a single 24-h urine collection to estimate an individual's usual sodium intake and relating Sodium excretion from a single24-h collection with outcomes.

Piyamitr Sritara,Chanika Sritara,Mark Woodward,Somjai Wangsuphachart,Federica Barzi,Bunlue Hengprasith,Tada Yipintsoi +6 more
TL;DR: The prevalence of PAD in urban, middle-class Thais was similar to that in the population in developed countries, and multiple logistic regression analysis found hypertension, female gender, current smoking, current alcohol drinking, and overweight to be significant predictors of P AD.

Does fibrinogen add to prediction of cardiovascular disease? Results from the Scottish Heart Health Extended Cohort Study.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the added value of fibrinogen to two currently used risk scores is low; hence population screening with fibr inogen for this purpose is unlikely to be clinically useful or cost‐effective.
