Racial Differences in Prevalence and Impact of Electrocardiographic Subclinical Myocardial Injury Risk Factors
CONCLUSIONS: Heterogeneity in the racial differences in the prevalence of SCMI risk factors exists, but they do not explain racial differences in SCMI. The stronger associations of smoking, diabetes, and lack of physical with SCMI partially explain the higher prevalence of SCMI in Whites.PMID:38301824 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2024.01.020 (Source: The American Journal of the Medical Sciences)

Risk factors for massive gastrointestinal bleeding occurrence and mortality: A prospective single-center study
CONCLUSIONS: Inpatient status and comorbidities, especially systemic diseases, and malignancies, were associated with a higher risk of massive bleeding. Mortality was linked to chronic kidney disease, cirrhosis, severe comorbidities, and alcohol consumption. We observed increased 6-months mortality, probably related to a health status in which gastrointestinal bleeding heralded poor outcomes, some of them potentially preventable. Innovative healthcare interventions, such as Emergency Department-based intermediate care areas or Intensive Care Units, and multidisciplinary follow-up, could potentially improve survival.PMID:38...

Type I acquired cutis laxa: Report of a unique progressive case and short review
We present the case of a 30-year-old man diagnosed with type I ACL with progressive systemic involvement at the renal, pulmonary, and digestive levels. Histological analysis of the skin revealed reduction and fragmentation of elastic fibers. Immunosuppressive treatment was started with prednisone, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab, with which a complete response to proteinuria was achieved and the progression of lung damage was limited. Autoimmune, infectious, and neoplastic diseases were ruled out.PMID:38278360 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2024.01.015 (Source: The American Journal of the Medical Sciences)

Beta-blockers and cirrhosis: Striking the right balance
Am J Med Sci. 2024 Jan 21:S0002-9629(24)00009-0. doi: 10.1016/j.amjms.2024.01.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDecompensated cirrhosis is associated with a significantly increased risk of mortality. Variceal hemorrhage (VH) further increases the risk of mortality, and of future variceal bleed events. Non-selective beta-blockers (NSBBs) are effective therapy for primary and secondary prophylaxis of VH and have become the cornerstone of pharmacologic therapy in cirrhosis. Beta-blockers are associated with reduced overall mortality and GI-bleeding related mortality in patients with decompensated cirrhosis; they may also con...

Delay in Post-Endoscopic Refeeding in Patients with Upper GI Bleeding Leads to Increased Hospital Length of Stay
CONCLUSIONS: Inappropriate dietary restrictions are frequent in patients with UGIB caused by low risk lesions. This delay in refeeding leads to increased length of hospital stay - suggesting that appropriate refeeding is an opportunity to improve patient care.PMID:38253257 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2024.01.010 (Source: The American Journal of the Medical Sciences)
