After Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell froze during a press conference this month, the Kentucky Republican’s second such episode this summer, his office released a note from the Capitol physician intended to calm those worried about his ability to continue at his job. Dr. Brian Monahan told McConnell in the letter that there was “no evidence that you have a seizure disorder or that you experienced a stroke, TIA or movement disorder such as Parkinson’s disease.” Monahan suggested the episodes may be related to the Leader’s concussion in March or to dehydration.  [time-brightcove n...

Maximal respiratory pressures: Measurements at functional residual capacity in individuals with different health conditions using a digital manometer
CONCLUSION: Although inspiratory and expiratory pressures at FRC were lower than measures obtained at RV/TLC for the five groups of health conditions, the mean differences between measurements at different lung volumes were similar among groups, which raises the discussion about the influence of the viscoelastic properties of the lungs on maximal respiratory pressure.PMID:37566990 | DOI:10.1016/j.bjpt.2023.100529

Impact of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Outbreak on Emergency Patients Hospitalized With Cardiocerebrovascular Diseases in Osaka Prefecture, Japan  - A Population-Based Study
CONCLUSIONS: The numbers of emergency patients hospitalized with cardiocerebrovascular diseases and their deaths in Osaka were not affected by the COVID-19 epidemic.PMID:37532531 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0298

A Statewide Population-Linkage Study on the Impact of Atrial Fibrillation on Outcomes in 145,293 Patients Admitted With COVID-19
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common in COVID-19 patients. The impact of AF on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE defined as all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, heart failure or revascularisation), recurrent admissions with AF, and venous thromboembolism in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 is not well-defined.

COVID-19 Infected ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction in INDIA (COSTA INDIA)
CONCLUSIONS: In this large registry of STEMI patients, we did not find significant excess in in-hospital mortality among COVID-19 co-infected patients compared with non-infected patients despite lower rate of primary PCI and reperfusion treatment, though composite of in-hospital mortality, re-infarction, stroke and heart failure was higher.PMID:37230465 | PMC:PMC10204278 | DOI:10.1016/j.ihj.2023.05.009

Corticoid treatment and SARS-CoV-2 variants: two independent factors associated with COVID-19 mortality in a Spanish regional hospital
CONCLUSIONS: This study confirms the therapeutic utility of glucocorticoids to reduce in-hospital mortality due to COVID-19. Heterogeneous mortality rates between the different COVID-19 waves suggest a direct role of viral variants as determinants of lethality, regardless of the patient's history.PMID:37203319 | DOI:10.23938/ASSN.1017
