Eur Heart J.
- Amongst 4366 CARDIA subjects, 241 ASCVD events were recorded after age of 40 yrs (mean follow-up: 19.3 yrs)
- Cumulative exposure to apoB, LDL-P, & TRL-P from age 18-40 increased ASCVD risk after 40, with a 1 SD higher exposure yielding HRs of 1.53, 1.54, & 1.48, respectively (aHR≈ 1.30), usual apoB exposure ≥75 mg/dL/year raised the ASCVD risk
- Targeting apoB <75 mg/dL may reduce ASCVD incidence in young adults.

- As per national survey of physicians (France), amoxicillin was preferred first-line therapy, prescribed in 69% for 14 days and 29% for 21 days, mostly at 80–100 mg/kg/day
- Linezolid was preferred in penicillin-allergic patients; levofloxacin was common but often deemed inappropriate
- Therapeutic abstention was frequent with catheterization, polymicrobial cultures, or leukocyturia <10⁴/mL.

- In preschoolers with autism spectrum disorder, high screen time (ST) was linked to higher anxiety/depression scores (60.02 vs. 50.17, p=0.03) and reduced left superior frontal cortical volume (25,232.13 vs. 26,441.19, p=0.02) vs. low ST
- ST correlated positively with anxiety/depression (p=0.02) and negatively with cortical volume (p<0.001)
- The link between ST & anxiety/depression was attributed to cortical volume.

- Prevalence of headache disorders was 34.6% (in 2023) globally, causing 541.9 years lived with disability (YLDs)/1,00,000 population, with migraine being most common (487.5/1,00,000)
- Women had over twice the rate of YLDs vs. men (739.9 vs. 346.1/1,00,000)
- Medication-overuse headache significantly amplified burden (56·1%-58·9% of YLD estimates for tension-type headache & 14·1%-22·6% of YLD estimates for migraines)
