Risk of peripheral artery disease and stroke in migraineurs with or without aura: a nationwide population-based cohort study
Conclusion: Migraineurs without established cardiovascular disease had a significantly increased risk of PAD and stroke, and the risk of stroke persists in migraineurs with or without aura, with an increased trend of PAD in migraineurs with aura. Our study result should remind clinical physicians of the risk of PAD in the future among migraineurs even without established cardiovascular disease currently, and screening for PAD and stroke may be needed in caring patients with migraine.PMID:35919822 | PMC:PMC9339415 | DOI:10.7150/ijms.72119

Cardiovascular outcomes of vildagliptin in patients with type  2 diabetes mellitus after acute coronary syndrome or acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionsAmong patients with type  2 diabetes mellitus after a recent acute coronary syndrome or acute ischemic stroke, treatment with vildagliptin was not associated with increased risks of CV death, non‐fatal myocardial infarction, non‐fatal stroke and hospitalization for HF.

Predicting the Risk of Ischemic Stroke among Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Using a Simplified RA-CHADSV Score Based on the CHA2DS2-VASc Score.
CONCLUSIONS: A simplified RA-CHADSV score, with comparable efficiency as the CHA2DS2-VASc score, but easier to use clinically was developed for predicting the risk of ischemic stroke among non-AF RA patients. PMID: 32059458 [PubMed - in process]

Age Threshold for Increased Stroke Risk Among Patients With Atrial Fibrillation A Nationwide Cohort Study From Taiwan
This study hypothesized that the age threshold (65 years) used in the CHA2DS2-VASc system for initiating oral anticoagulants (OACs) might be lower in Taiwanese AF patients than in non-Asians.MethodsWe used the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan to study 186,570 nonanticoagulated AF patients. There were 9,416 males with a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 0 and 6,390 females with a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1. Their risk of ischemic stroke was analyzed with stratification on the basis of age.ResultsThe annual risks of ischemic stroke for males (score 0) and females (score 1) were 1.15% and 1.12%, respectively, and contin...

Long-Term Use of Statins Lowering the Risk of Rehospitalization Caused by Ischemic Stroke Among Middle-Aged Hyperlipidemic Patients: A Population-Based Study
Conclusion: Statins were associated with long-term secondary prevention of reHospIS for hyperlipidemic patients. Rosuvastatin seemed to have the best protective effects. On the other hand, Bezafibrate appears to be beneficial for hyperlipidemic patients developing diabetes. Further research into the combination treatment of statin and nonstatin lipid-lowering medicines in hyperlipidemic patients developing diabetes is warranted.

Early rhythm control and the risks of ischaemic stroke, heart failure, mortality and adverse events when performed early ( & lt;3 months)
CONCLUSIONS: Early rhythm control, especially when performed earlier (<3months), was associated with a lower risk of adverse events than usual care among patients with early AF.PMID:35322396 | DOI:10.1055/a-1807-0336

Prediction of acute coronary syndrome, ischemic stroke, and mortality in patients with heart failure: a comparison of CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc and AHEAD scores
ConclusionsThe ability of the CHA2DS2-VASc score to predict macrovascular complications (ACS and IS) in HF patients was higher than that of AHEAD.
