Examining Disparities and Excess Cardiovascular Mortality Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic
To investigate the patterns and demographics of cardiovascular (CVD) death and subtypes myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and heart failure (HF) in the pre-COVID-19 era (2018-2019) vs during COVID-19 pandemic (2020-2021) in the United States.

In reply —Risk Framing in Cardiovascular Medicine I and II
We thank the authors for their insightful comments on our perspective published in the journal.1 We agree with Dr Modarressi1 that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors indeed represent an important new treatment for patients with heart failure. Although we used the trial definition of major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or stroke) in the text and in the table ’s footnote, we acknowledge that this was a secondary and not a primary end point.

A Review of Hypertension Management in Black Male Patients
Hypertension affects approximately 85 million Americans, or almost 1 in 3 adults. Black men have disproportionately higher rates of hypertension and are more likely to experience complications of hypertension, including stroke, myocardial infarction, and death. In addition, hypertensive black men are less likely to achieve optimal blood pressure (BP) than women and persons of other races. In light of this, we performed a literature search for articles published from January 1, 1966, to December 31, 2018, using terms including hypertension, blood pressure, black male, and African American male.

79-Year-Old Man With Shortness of Breath and Fevers
A 79-year old man with a history of myocardial infarction and coronary artery bypass grafting in 2000, biventricular systolic heart failure with an ejection fraction of 27%, hypertension, persistent atrial fibrillation for which he was taking high-dose aspirin given a previous history of hemorrhagic stroke, stage 3 chronic kidney disease, left cerebellar ischemic stroke, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement 5 years previously presented to his local medical facility with a 2-day history of breathlessness, fevers, and chills.

The Pooled Cohort Equations for Predicting Risk of Myocardial Infarction and Stroke: Validated in Representative Natural History Populations
The American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) Pooled Cohort equations (PCEs) were introduced in late 2013 and published in mid-2014.1 Unlike the Framingham score used to determine coronary heart disease (CHD) risk in the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III guidelines,2 the new PCEs focused on estimating risk of CHD and stroke and additionally provided specific risk assessment for African American individuals. Because stroke may occur before CHD, particularly in women and African Americans, the PCEs were seen as a major advance in disease prognostication.

Testosterone Therapy and Cardiovascular Risk: Advances and Controversies
This article reviews those studies as well as the extensive literature on T and CV risks. A MEDLINE search was performed for the years 1940 to August 2014 using the following key words: testosterone, androgens, human, male, cardiovascular, stroke, cerebrovascular accident, myocardial infarction, heart attack, death, and mortality. The weight and direction of evidence was evaluated and level of evidence (LOE) assigned.

Burden of Illness for Osteoporotic Fractures Compared With Other Serious Diseases Among Postmenopausal Women in the United States
To provide a national estimate of the incidence of hospitalizations due to osteoporotic fractures (OFs) in women; compare this with the incidence of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and breast cancer; and assess temporal trends in the incidence and length of hospitalizations.
