Postacute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection—Reply. jamanetwork.com In Reply We agree with Dr Batra and colleagues that different manifestations of long COVID may arise due to different underlying pathological mechanisms of disease, which may be related to whether an individual was hospitalized during the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, we disagree that stratification by hospitalization status was needed to ensure the validity of the approach we used in our study.
(2023-10-17). Postacute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection. jamanetwork.com To the Editor A recent study developed a data-driven scoring framework to classify postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC). As stated in the accompanying Editorial, prior to developing a case definition, it is important to determine whether PASC is a single entity or multiple entities. Particularly, severe COVID-19 pneumonia requiring admission to the intensive care unit may lead to specific organ dysfunction and injury, including impaired cognitive function across multiple domains. Such dysfunction, consistent with the well-described post—intensive care syndrome, should be disentangled from PASC.

(2023-10-17). Novel Treatments for Hereditary ATTRv Amyloidosis. jamanetwork.com Hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis is a progressive, disabling, fatal disease caused by extracellular deposits in organs and tissues of misfolded transthyretin variants and wild-type transthyretin protein. The disease has various clinical manifestations, including cardiomyopathy and polyneuropathy. Drugs targeting hepatic messenger RNA (mRNA) can slow the progression of ATTRv polyneuropathy, because the liver produces 90% of the amyloidogenic protein. The specific interaction between the TTR silencer drugs and the TTR mRNA leads to the breakdown of mRNA, preventing the production of the transthyretin pr…

Although CVD mortality rates declined over the past several decades in the US, this decline has recently stagnated. Additionally, population-level increases in CVD risk factors and aging of the population threaten to further undermine progress. Key clinical guideline recommendation changes to chronic CVD treatment have been implemented over the past 10 years aiming to lower atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) risk in the US.
