Prognostic value of neutrophil‑ to‑lymphocyte ratio in predicting long-term mortality in patients with ischemic and nonischemic heart failure.
CONCLUSIONS The association between the NLR and the risk of death in long-term follow-up was confirmed only in the subgroup of patients with ischemic HF.

Comparative study of periostin expression in different respiratory samples in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
CONCLUSIONS Periostin may be detected not only in serum, IS, and airway tissue samples, but also in EBC and BALF. EBC periostin levels and tissue periostin expression are higher in patients with asthma than in those with COPD. EBC periostin levels may serve as a potential surrogate marker for tissue periostin expression.

Health checks in general practice: evidence first, not last.
Authors: López-García-Franco A, Pardo-Hernández H, Fraile-Navarro D, Alonso-Coello P
Abstract
Despite being ubiquitous in primary care, there is no accepted consensus on the definition and main components of health checks. They range from periodic health evaluations with a general physician, through the screening and diagnostic tests derived from these visits, to broader screening programs. Health checks may promote a fluid patient-provider relationship, improve the delivery of some preventive measures, and reduce the patient's anxiety. However, they can also expose patients to overdiagnosis and unneces...

Transmission of tuberculosis among people living in the border areas of Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia.
CONCLUSIONS We identified 6 potential outbreaks of tuberculosis transmission between patients of different nationalities. The circumstances favorable to potential contacts of patients included mainly travelling to the neighboring countries, hospital stays, and addictions. However, there was no evidence of an epidemiological link between these patients, so it may be assumed that if they had come in contact with one another, it was accidental. We observed that the greater incidence of tuberculosis on the Polish territory did not affect the incidence in the Czech Republic or Slovakia over the analysis period.

Association between microRNA-21 concentration and lipid profile in patients with acute coronary syndrome without persistent ST-segment elevation.
CONCLUSIONS Free circulating miR-21 levels inversely correlate with TC, LDL-C, and non-HDL-C and are an independent predictor of non-HDL-C levels in patients with NSTE ACS. Thus, the overexpression of miR-21 is associated with a less atherogenic lipid profile.
