COVID-19 Vaccination-Related Pericarditis: A Korean Nationwide Study.
To investigate the incidence, characteristics, and outcomes of COVID-19 vaccine-related pericarditis (VRP) without myocarditis, we analyzed nationwide Korean data. ⋯ COVID-19 VRP was very rare and developed mainly in association with mRNA vaccines, especially in males younger than 40 years of age. The clinical course of VRP was excellent, and there were no cases of mortality. However, the development of hemodynamically significant pericardial effusion should be carefully monitored.

Trimethylamine-N-Oxide and Related Metabolites: Assessing Cardiovascular Risk in the Dallas Heart Study.
To evaluate the association between trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) and related metabolites with adverse cardiovascular events in a multiethnic urban primary prevention population. ⋯ Our results suggest that TMAO and related metabolites are independently associated with ASCVD events. Although further studies are needed, measurement of TMAO and related metabolites may have a role in ASCVD risk stratification for primary prevention.

Impact of Work on Personal Relationships and Physician Well-being.
To assess the impact of work on personal relationships (IWPR) by specialty and demographic variables in a national sample of physicians, to assess the association between the IWPR and burnout, and to determine the effect of adjusting for IWPR on the risk of burnout associated with being a physician. ⋯ IWPR is associated with burnout. Adjustment for IWPR eliminated the observed difference in burnout between physicians and workers in other fields. Interventions that identify and mitigate work practices that have a negative impact on physicians' personal relationships and interventions that support affected individual physicians are warranted.

Effect of Relative Protein Intake on Hypertension and Mediating Role of Physical Fitness and Circulating Fatty Acids: A Mendelian Randomization Study.
To investigate the causal effect of protein intake on hypertension and the related mediating pathways. ⋯ Higher relative protein intake causally reduces the risk of hypertension, partly mediated by physical fitness and circulating fatty acids.
