We used identical exclusion criteria to MESA12 (link) which included having a physician diagnosed heart attack, stroke or transient ischemic attack, heart failure, angina, use of nitroglycerin, or those with a history of cardiovascular procedures such as coronary artery bypass graft surgery, angioplasty, valve replacement, pacemaker or defibrillator implantation, or any surgery on the heart or arteries. Those with current atrial fibrillation or in active treatment for cancer were excluded. Those with life expectancy < 5 years due to a serious medical illness, impaired cognitive ability as judged by the reviewer, plans to move out of the study region in the next 5 years, or those living in a nursing home or on a waiting list were also excluded. Due to CT scanner limitations, those weighing over 300 lbs. were excluded.

Nitroglycerin
Nitroglycerin
Nitroglycerin is a potent vasodilator used in the treatment of angina pectoris, heart failure, and other cardiovascular conditions.
It acts by relaxing vascular smooth muscle, leading to decreased peripheral vascular resistance and improved blood flow.
Nitroglycerin can be administered sublingually, transdermally, or intravenously, and its effects are typically rapid in onset but short-lived.
Careful dosing is required to avoid adverse effects such as headache, hypotension, and methemoglobinemia.
Nitroglycerin research is an important area of study, with researchers using advanced techniques like AI-driven protocols to ensure exceptional reproducibility and accuracy.

Enrolled subjects on continuous suppressive ART were randomized to receive either mesalamine or matching placebo for 12 weeks, followed by a 12 week crossover period on the alternative arm. The primary outcome was the change in the percent activated (CD38+ HLA-DR+) CD8+ T cells at week 12. Consenting subjects also participated in a serial rectal biopsy sub-study to evaluate the effects of mesalamine in the GALT.
Subjects were recruited from the University of California, San Francisco [UCSF] between February, 2011 and June, 2012 with the last date of follow-up occurring in December, 2012. Chronically HIV-infected adults maintaining plasma HIV RNA levels below the limit of detection of the locally available clinical threshold for ≥1 year on stable ART and with persistent CD4+ T cell counts <350 cells/mm3 were eligible. Detectable episodes of viremia <500 copies/ml were allowed in the prior year if they were flanked by confirmed undetectable values. Patients were ineligible if they experienced an increase in CD4+ T cell count >100 cells/mm3 in the last year; reported <90% adherence to ART; had any serious acute illness in the preceding 3 months; were pregnant or breastfeeding; or had any of the following laboratory abnormalities: absolute neutrophil count <1,000 cells/mm3, platelet count <50,000 cells/mm3, hemoglobin <8 mg/dL, creatinine clearance <40 mL/minute, or serum transaminases >2.5x the upper limit of normal. For the endothelial function studies, as nitroglycerin is administered, any Viagra-like drug within 72 hours of the study was prohibited. Changes in doses of lipid lowering medication or anti-hypertensive medication were also not permitted less than 90 days prior to study entry or during the study.
The study was approved by the institutional review board at UCSF and all subjects provided written informed consent (IRB #: 10–010123; Clinical Trials #: NCT01090102). The protocol for this trial and supporting checklist are available asS1 Protocol and S1 CONSORT Checklist .

Example 6
A 42-year-old male subject ingested 5 mg (2 capsules) of sustained release nitroglycerin (Supranitrin, GAP. A.E., Greece) and developed a migraine 30 minutes later. The migraine continued for over two hours. After a 3-day washout period, the subject ingested 5 mg (2 capsules) of sustained release nitroglycerin with 200 mg elemental magnesium powder (60-200 mesh size). Although the subject felt lightheaded after ingesting the combination of sustained release nitroglycerin and elemental magnesium, he did not develop a migraine from ingestion of the nitroglycerin.

Flow-mediated vasodilation was measured as endothelium-dependent vasodilation of vascular response to reactive hyperemia in the brachial artery by using an automated edge detection system (UNEXEF18G, UNEX Co, Nagoya, Japan) (26 (link)). NID was measured in vascular response to nitroglycerine as endothelium-independent vasodilation, as previously reported (26 (link)). This study was conducted with a methodological approach to FMD, following the recommendations proposed by Thijssen et al. (27 (link)). Additional details can be found in the Supplementary material .

Non-contrast cardiac CT and coronary CT angiography were performed using a 256-slice CT scanner (Brilliance iCT; Philips Healthcare, Best, The Netherlands). Prior to CT, participants were given 50 to 75 mg of metoprolol orally if heart rate was >60 beats/min, and 0.4 mg of nitroglycerin sublingually unless contraindicated.
Non-contrast cardiac CT was performed for coronary calcium scoring and EF evaluation using the following parameters: slice thickness 2.5 mm, matrix 512 × 512, field-of-view 250 mm, scan voltage 120 kV and prospective electrocardiographic-gating. CT angiography was performed for coronary plaque analysis using 370 mg/mL of iopamidol (Bracco Imaging, Milan, Italy) at a flow rate of 5 mL/s. Images were reconstructed using a hybrid iterative reconstruction algorithm (Philips iDose; Philips Healthcare, level 3).

All patients provided a written informed consent before participating in the study. Heart rate and blood pressure were measured at rest before the examination. Patients with a heart rate of > 70 bpm were given metoprolol (Betaloc, 25-100 mg). These patients were randomly assigned into two groups (groups A1 and A2) at a ratio of 2:1. Before the examination, these patients were administered with 0.5 mg nitroglycerine tablets.

We developed the IVS software in Unity 3D using the C# programming language [13 ]. The IVS software requires 2 monitors to be connected to the computer. One monitor displays a dashboard of buttons that are used by the facilitator to control the simulation content displayed on the second monitor. The dashboard is viewed only by the facilitator, and the second monitor displaying the content is viewed by the students. Each button on the dashboard corresponds to one piece of multimedia content, such as a video clip, image, or text. When a button is clicked on the dashboard, the corresponding content is displayed on the students’ monitor. The dashboard enables content to be displayed on the students’ monitor seamlessly and in any order. The multimedia content is imported into the software before the simulation. The software stores the content information and button data (eg, labels, colors, and order) in csv files. These files can be modified to assign content to buttons and to change the layout and design of the dashboard. During the simulation, the facilitator provides students with a Scenario, Background, Assessment, and Recommendation (SBAR) and asks them to describe the steps of the patient care. As the students describe their patient care, the facilitator displays the associated multimedia content on the students’ screen. For example, if students explain that they want to administer nitroglycerin medication, the facilitator will play the video clip of a nurse administering the medication. If students want to review the patient’s electrocardiogram, the facilitator will display an image of the electrocardiogram. When a button is clicked, the data are written to a log that the facilitator can later review to evaluate students’ performance.
The IVS software can be used to conduct a simulation locally or remotely. In a remote simulation, the facilitator connects with students via a videoconferencing application. The facilitator then uses the screen sharing feature to allow students to view the monitor displaying the simulation content, whereas the other monitor displaying the dashboard remains visible only to the facilitator. In this study, the simulation was controlled locally without the use of a videoconferencing application or the internet. In a previous study, we used the IVS software to conduct a remote simulation over Zoom [12 (link),14 ]. We found that streaming videos over Zoom caused a reduction in the frame rate, and the videos lagged on the students’ screens. Many students reported that the lagging videos were distracting to their learning experiences [12 (link)]. In this study, the simulation was conducted locally without the internet to eliminate this factor, allowing us to focus exclusively on interactivity.
