Effects of Smoking on Long-Term Clinical Outcomes and Lung Cancer in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to the unadjusted model, smoking is associated with worse cardiovascular outcome and higher incidence of lung cancer after adjustment of various confounding factors. This result can be explained by the characteristics of smokers, which were young and had fewer comorbidities.PMID:33821583 | PMC:PMC8022024 | DOI:10.4070/kcj.2020.0430

Optimal Management of Anticoagulation Therapy in Asian Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Circ J. 2021 Jun 5. doi: 10.1253/circj.CJ-21-0399. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke prevention is the cornerstone of management of atrial fibrillation (AF), and non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are commonly prescribed. Because routine monitoring of anticoagulant effects of NOACs is not necessary, appropriate dosing following the criteria of each NOACs defined in pivotal randomized trials is important. Real-world data demonstrate that underdosing NOACs is associated with a higher risk of ischemic stroke without a lower risk of major bleeding. Furthermore, renal function of AF patients should be asses...

Comparing pharmacotherapy in MINOCA versus medically managed obstructive acute coronary syndrome
This study uniquely compares the management and outcomes of MINOCA patients with a medically managed obstructive ACS (M-ACS) population. We retrospectively analysed registry data for consecutive patients admitted to the Gold Coast University Hospital with ACS requiring coronary angiography and identified patients with MINOCA and M-ACS. Baseline characteristics, pharmacological therapy and in-hospital outcomes were compared. In hospital outcomes were composite NACE, heart failure, stroke and major bleeding. Multivariate regression analysis was also performed to identify independent predictors of MINOCA. Multivariate regress...

11 Hospice and palliative care for advanced cardiac diseases in hong kong
Advanced cardiac diseases are common non-cancer conditions that require good palliative care. Palliative Care should embrace both cancer and non-cancer conditions, and is applicable early in the course of illness, in conjunction with other therapies. There is a high prevalence of symptoms and distress in heat failure (HF) necessitating palliative care, which include not just dyspnoea and oedema but also a range of other symptoms that are all sub-optimally controlled at the end of life.1
For patients with HF, palliative care attends to physical, psychological, social and spiritual distress, caring for both patients and fam...

Sphingosine 1-phosphate and its regulatory role in vascular endothelial cells
We presently review the levels of S1P in those vascular and vascular-related diseases. Plasma S1P levels were reduced in various inflammation-related diseases such as atherosclerosis and sepsis, but were increased in other diseases including type 2 diabetes, neurodegeneration, cerebrovascular damages such as acute ischemic stroke, Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, angina, heart failure, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, community-acquired pneumonia, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Then, we highlighted the molecular mechanism by which S1P regulated EC biology including vascular development and angiogenesis, inflammation, p...
