    Abstract Objective: Although telemedicine interventional therapy is an innovative method to reduce public medical burden and improve heart failure, its effectiveness is still controversial. This meta-analysis evaluates the role of telemedicine interventional therapy in the treatment of patients with chronic heart failure.
    Methods: Relevant literature on telemedicine in chronic heart failure treatment was screened and extracted based on predefined criteria. Quality assessment used Cochrane Handbook 5.1.0 tool, and meta-analysis was conducted using R 4.2.2 software.
    Results: Fifteen English-language articles were ultimately included in this meta-analysis. The risk bias evaluation determined that 4 articles were low-risk bias and 11 articles were unclear risk bias. The meta-analysis revealed that, compared to the routine intervention group, the all-cause hospitalization rate of patients in the telemedicine intervention group decreased [OR = 0.63, 95% CI (0.41; 0.96), P =.03], and the hospitalization rate of heart failure also decreased [OR = 0.70, 95% CI (0.48; 0.85), P <.01]. However, there were no differences in mortality [OR = 0.64, 95% CI (0.41; 1.01), P =.05], length of hospitalization [MD = -0.42, 95% CI (-1.22; 0.38), P =.31], number of emergency hospitalizations [MD = -0.09, 95% CI (-0.33; 0.15), P =.45], medication compliance [OR = 1.67, 95% CI (0.92; 3.02), P =.09], or MLHFQ scores [MD = -2.30, 95% CI (-6.16; 1.56), P =.24] among the patients.
    Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed that telemedicine reduced overall and heart failure-related hospitalizations in chronic heart failure patients, suggesting its value in clinical management. However, it did not significantly affect mortality, hospital stay length, emergency visits, medication adherence, or quality of life. This suggests the need to optimize specific aspects of telemedicine, identify key components, and develop strategies for better treatment outcomes.

    Abstract This study sought to examine hitherto unresearched relationships between serum terpenes and the prevalence of dyslipidemia. Serum terpenes such as limonene, α-pinene, and β-pinene from the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were used as independent variables in this cross-sectional study. Continuous lipid variables included total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL-C, triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), residual cholesterol (RC), and apolipoprotein B (Apo B). Binary lipid variables (elevated TC, ≥5.18 mmol/L; lowered HDL-C, <1.04 mmol/L in men, and <1.30 mmol/L in women; elevated non-HDL-C, ≥4.2 mmol/L; elevated TG, ≥1.7 mmol/L; elevated LDL-C, ≥3.37 mmol/L; elevated RC, ≥1.0 mmol/L; and elevated Apo B, ≥1.3 g/L) suggest dyslipidemia. The relationships between the mixture of serum terpenes with lipid variables were investigated using weighted quantile sum (WQS) regression and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR). The study for TC, HDL-C, and non-HDL-C included a total of 1,528 people, whereas the analysis for TG, LDL-C, RC, and Apo B comprised 714 participants. The mean age of the overall participants was 47.69 years, and 48.77% were male. We found that tertiles of serum terpene were positively associated with binary (elevated TC, non-HDL-C, TG, LDL-C, RC, Apo B, and lowered HDL-C) and continuous (TC, non-HDL-C, TG, LDL-C, RC, and Apo B, but not HDL-C) serum lipid variables. WQS regression and BKMR analysis revealed that the mixture of serum terpenes was linked with the prevalence of dyslipidemia. According to our data, the prevalence of dyslipidemia was correlated with serum concentrations of three terpenes both separately and collectively.

    Abstract The relationship between aldehyde exposure and metabolic syndrome is unclear; hence, we aimed to investigate the association between serum aldehyde concentrations and metabolic syndrome. We analyzed the data of 1471 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey enrolled from 2013 to 2014. The association of serum aldehyde concentrations with metabolic syndrome was assessed via generalized linear models as well as restricted cubic splines, and endpoint events were further analyzed. After adjusting for covariates, both moderate (odds ratio [OR] = 2.73, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.34-5.56) and high (OR = 2.08, 95% CI: 1.06-4.07) concentrations of isovaleraldehyde were associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome. Interestingly, although a moderate concentration of valeraldehyde was associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome (OR = 1.08, 95% CI: 0.70-1.65), a high concentration was not (OR = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.17-1.79). Restricted cubic splines revealed a non-linear association between valeraldehyde and metabolic syndrome, and threshold effect analysis revealed that the inflection point for valeraldehyde concentration was 0.7 ng/mL. The results of the subgroup analysis revealed differences in the relationship of aldehyde exposure with components of metabolic syndrome. High isovaleraldehyde concentrations may increase the risk of metabolic syndrome, and valeraldehyde demonstrated a J-shaped relationship with the risk of metabolic syndrome.
