    Abstract Metal–organic coordination polymers are modular systems whose structures can be modified in numerous ways to introduce and influence non-linear optical and electrical properties. However, their full potential as piezoelectric nanogenerators for self-powered electronics is yet to be uncovered. Here, we report a Zn(II)-based ferroelectric one-dimensional coordination network {[Zn(L¹)(bpy)]·(H₂O)₁.₅}∞ (1) derived from a flexible dicarboxylate ligand [PhPO(NH-(C₆H₄COOH))₂] (L¹H₂) and 2,2′-bipyridine as a co-ligand. The origin of polarization in 1, despite its neutral structure, is due to the polyhedral distortions around the Zn(II) center as revealed by ab initio calculations. The presence of polarizable domains was visualized by piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) experiments. Also, from the PFM studies, a sizable converse piezoelectric coefficient (d₃₃) value of 19.4 pm/V was noticed for 1, which is unprecedentedly high for the class of neutral-network coordination polymers. Furthermore, flexible composite devices comprising a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) polymer with different weight percentages (wt %) of 1 were prepared and examined for application as piezoelectric nanogenerators. Notably, the champion device of this series (poled 5 wt % 1-TPU composite) exhibits a highest open-circuit voltage of 5.6 V and power density output of 14.6 μW/cm².

    Abstract Objective: In 2016, the Lipid Association of India (LAI) developed a cardiovascular risk assessment algorithm and defined low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goals for prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in Indians. The recent refinements in the role of various risk factors and subclinical atherosclerosis in prediction of ASCVD risk necessitated updating the risk algorithm and treatment goals.
    Methods: The LAI core committee held twenty-one meetings and webinars from June 2022 to July 2023 with experts across India and critically reviewed the latest evidence regarding the strategies for ASCVD risk prediction and the benefits and modalities for intensive lipid lowering. Based on the expert consensus and extensive review of published data, consensus statement IV was commissioned.
    Results: The young age of onset and a more aggressive nature of ASCVD in Indians necessitates emphasis on lifetime ASCVD risk instead of the conventional 10-year risk. It also demands early institution of aggressive preventive measures to protect the young population prior to development of ASCVD events. Wide availability and low cost of statins in India enable implementation of effective LDL-C lowering therapy in individuals at high risk of ASCVD. Subjects with any evidence of subclinical atherosclerosis are likely to benefit the most from early aggressive interventions.
    Conclusions: This document presents the updated risk stratification and treatment algorithm and describes the rationale for each modification. The intent of these updated recommendations is to modernize management of dyslipidemia in Indian patients with the goal of reducing the epidemic of ASCVD among Indians in Asia and worldwide.

    Abstract Objectives: Coronary artery aneurysm is a rare condition with a reported incidence of 0.14-4.9% in patients undergoing coronary angiography and 0.3-5.3% in patients after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Optimum surgical therapy for this entity is difficult to standardize. We present here a series of 4 cases with the aim of establishing an optimal surgical therapy for this rare entity.
    Methods: Four cases of coronary artery aneurysm were admitted in the Department of Cardiology and Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, from April 2010 to April 2012. All patients underwent a surgical procedure that involved ligation and plication of the aneurysm with coronary artery bypass grafting.
    Results: Out of the four coronary artery aneurysm patients, 1 was atherosclerotic and the remaining 3 patients developed coronary artery aneurysm after PTCA with a drug eluting stent to the left anterior descending artery. After surgery, all patients recovered uneventfully without any recurrence of symptoms in the follow-up.
    Conclusions: Coronary artery aneurysm is a rare entity and is being seen more frequently with the increasing use of stents during PTCA. Proximal ligation and plication of the aneurysm with coronary artery bypass grafting in the present series provided good results. With this case series, we seek to establish an optimal surgical therapy for this rare entity.
