Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors and Risk of Heart Failure in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Population-Based Cohort Study Original Articles
Conclusions: Our findings suggest that DPP-4i use did not increase the risk of HF compared with sulfonylurea. In addition, the risks for cardiovascular outcomes were not elevated in DPP-4i–treated patients compared with sulfonylurea-treated patients.

Long-term outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a 13-year nationwide cohort study
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with increased risk of coronary atherosclerosis. However, its impact on the long-term outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been described. Using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan, we identified 215275 adult patients who underwent first-time PCI between 2000 and 2012. Among them, the outcomes of patients with COPD (n = 24900) and without COPD (n = 190375) were compared. Baseline demographics and 13-year overall mortality and adverse cardiac outcomes after PCI (i.e., ischemic events, repeat revascula...

Cardiovascular disease incidence in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionWhile cancer therapies are known to increase the risk of CVD, this study additionally shows that CVD risk varies by sociodemographic factors.Implications for cancer survivorsThe identification and mitigation of CVD risk factors in these subgroups may improve long-term patient outcomes.

ADVANCIS Score Predicts Acute Kidney Injury After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Acute Coronary Syndrome.
In conclusion, the ADVANCIS score is a novel, simple, robust tool for predicting the risk of incident AKI after PCI for ACS, and it can aid in risk stratification to monitor patient care. PMID: 29559842 [PubMed - in process]

Burden of Hospital Readmissions for Venous Thromboembolism Among Patients with Cancer
Conclusions: In this real-world study, many patients hospitalized for cancer experienced a VTE event requiring re-hospitalization, which was the highest proportion of readmitted patients among acute medical illnesses analyzed in this study, with almost 30% readmitted within 30 days of post-discharge. Total costs of readmissions were substantial, as high as $41K for resubmissions due to primary diagnosis of DVT/PE. Improvement in VTE prophylaxis for patients with cancer may reduce the risk and frequency of VTE, and thus hospital readmissions, reducing the clinical and economic burden of VTE in this patient population.Sponso...

Changing Incidence of Major Cardiovascular Events in Multiple Myeloma Patients over Time
Conclusion: CVD is a common complication in MM patients: within 5 years of a MM diagnosis, over 25% develop CVD requiring hospitalization. Contrary to our hypothesis, we did not find increased CVD admissions in the most recent era. Decreased admissions due to CHF and CAD in the most recent era of diagnosis may indicate a greater awareness of this issue, routine thromboprophylaxis with anti-platelet agents in patients being treated with immunomodulatory agents, or changes in secular trends in the diagnosis and treatment of CVD. CVD is an ongoing source of morbidity for MM patients requiring further study and the vigilance o...

Temporal Trends of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Device Implantations: a Nationwide Population-based Study.
CONCLUSIONS: The number of CIED implantation increased substantially from 2009 to 2016 in Korea. Also, the patients with CIED have been changed to be older and have more comorbidities. Therefore, the burden of health care cost in patients with CIED would be expected to increase in the future. PMID: 31074230 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Frequency of hospital readmissions for venous thromboembolism and associated hospital costs and length of stay among acute medically ill patients in the US.
CONCLUSIONS: Among this study population of patients hospitalized for acute medical illnesses, some experienced a VTE event requiring re-hospitalization, with 25% occurring within the first 30 days after hospital discharge. PMID: 31084383 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Hispanic Hospice Utilization: Integrative Review and Meta-analysis.
Abstract Hospice is patient-centered end-of-life care. Hispanics are underrepresented among hospice patients (7.1%) relative to the U.S. population (17%). We conducted a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis to understand this underrepresentation further. In palliative care, Hispanic hospice enrollment is comparable to that of non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) (RR 1.02, 95% CI: 0.93-1.12; z=0.49; p = .627). However, in cases of heart failure (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.37-0.66) and stroke (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.63-0.94), Hispanics are much less likely to use hospice than NHWs. Cancer studies are mixed, but in meta-ana...
