Efficacy of Aspirin in the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases and Cancer in the Elderly: A Population-Based Cohort Study in Korea
ConclusionAspirin reduced the risks of MACCE and cancer without increasing the bleeding risk in elderly Koreans with hypertension, T2DM, or dyslipidemia. Moreover, the benefits of the long-term use of aspirin in reducing the risks of MACCE were demonstrated. However, the decision of using aspirin for primary prevention must be carefully made on an individual basis, while estimating the benefit –risk balance of aspirin.

IJERPH, Vol. 16, Pages 4432: Previous Use of Mammography as a Proxy for General Health Checks in Association with Better Outcomes after Major Surgeries
In conclusion, preoperative use of mammography was strongly associated with fewer perioperative complications and less in-hospital mortality after major surgeries. The evidence provided by this study justifies the implementation of preoperative health checks in clinical practice.

Relationship of chronic rhinosinusitis with asthma, myocardial infarction, stroke, anxiety, and depression
ConclusionCRS is associated with an increased incidence of asthma, AMI, stroke, anxiety disorder, and depression. Therefore, we suggest that clinicians should monitor CRS patients carefully, and optimize management as a means to potentially decrease these other associated comorbid conditions.

Increased cardiovascular risk and all-cause death in patients with Beh çet's disease: a nationwide population-based dynamic cohort study.
CONCLUSION: Korean BD patients had a higher overall risk of CVD than did those without BD. Therefore, patients with BD must be carefully monitored for the potential development of CVD to ensure that appropriate early treatments are delivered. PMID: 31371649 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Improved Population-Based Clinical Outcomes of Patients with Atrial Fibrillation by Compliance with the Simple ABC (Atrial Fibrillation Better Care) Pathway for Integrated Care Management: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
CONCLUSION:  In the first study of a nationwide population cohort, we show that compliance with the simple ABC pathway is associated with improved clinically relevant outcomes of patients with AF. Given the high health care burden associated with AF, such a streamlined holistic approach to AF management should be implemented, to improve the care of such patients.

Effects of long-term glycemic variability on incident cardiovascular disease and mortality in subjects without diabetes: A nationwide population-based study
Increased glycemic variability (GV) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular complications in patients with diabetes. We evaluated the risk of future development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and death according to GV in a general population without diabetes. We used the National Health Insurance Service, providing a population-based, nationwide database of Koreans. We included individuals without diabetes who underwent glucose measurement at least 3 times during 2002 to 2006. GV was calculated as standard deviation (SD) of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels. We observed development of CVD or all-cause death fr...

Major ischaemic and bleeding risks following current drug-eluting stent implantation: Are there differences across current drug-eluting stent types in real life?
CONCLUSIONS: In real life, major ischaemic and bleeding risks do not differ across the various c-DESs over the first year following implantation. Future studies are needed to assess comparative c-DES effectiveness and safety longer term. PMID: 31262635 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
