The Role of Monocyte to High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio in Predicting the Severity of Acute Ischemic Stroke and its Association with the NIHSS
CONCLUSION: In our study, the MHR shows an increased value in patients with AIS, and a linear correlation is found with the NIHSS score. Thus, the method is a pocket-friendly, easily available, and simple-to-use novel inflammatory marker that may predict the severity of a disease.PMID:37651244 | DOI:10.59556/japi.71.0321

Vertebrobasilar Artery Calcification as a Risk Factor for the Development of Stroke: Case-Control Study From a Tertiary Care Center, Southern India
Conclusion The presence of higher grades of calcifications in the vertebrobasilar arteries is a major risk factor for stroke. Hence, its presence in asymptomatic individuals needs to be taken as a warning sign for the development of stroke.PMID:37605701 | PMC:PMC10440145 | DOI:10.7759/cureus.42196

A Study of Lipid Profile in Non-Diabetic Ischemic Stroke in Young Patients
CONCLUSION: This study showed significant association of total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol in non-diabetics with stroke. Dyslipidemia modifiable risk factor, routine screening with lipid profile and early initiation of treatment of lipid lowering drugs will reduce the incidence of ischemic stroke.PMID:35443417

Correlation Between Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
CONCLUSION: CIMT is increased in NAFLD patients. Increase in CIMT is significantly correlated with increasing grades of NAFLD. Hence CIMT can be used as screening tests in NALFD patients to assess cardiovascular risks.PMID:35443534

Stroke in cardiac sarcoidosis: Need to worry?
CONCLUSIONS: Ischemic stroke in patients with CS can be attributed to a cardioembolic phenomenon. A high index of clinical suspicion is needed for early diagnosis and management of these patients.PMID:33189209 | PMC:PMC7670250 | DOI:10.1016/j.ihj.2020.07.015

Cardiovascular Health in American Indians and Alaska Natives: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association.
CONCLUSIONS: Prevention and treatment of CVD in American Indians and Alaska Natives should focus on control of risk factors and community-based interventions that address social determinants of health, particularly among individuals with diabetes mellitus. Accurate reporting of race/ethnicity is encouraged to address race-specific risk factors. PMID: 32460555 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Integration of eGFR biomarker in image-based CV/Stroke risk calculator: a south Asian-Indian diabetes cohort with moderate chronic kidney disease.
CONCLUSIONS: An integrated calculator AECRS2.0 can be used to assess the 10-year CVD/stroke risk in patients suffering from CKD. AECRS2.0 was much superior to QRISK3. PMID: 32214072 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Abstract P201: Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome in Hypertensive Patients Session Title: Onsite Poster Competition I With Reception
This study was done to find out the prevalence of metabolic syndrome among newly diagnosed hypertensive patients in a tertiary care hospital of northern India, Guru Nanak Dev hospital, attached to Government Medical College, Amritsar, India.Methods: It is a hospital based cross sectional study involving one hundred newly diagnosed subjects with hypertension above the age 20 years. High blood pressure was defined according to Joint National committe-7 (JNC-7) guidelines, taking systolic BP> 140 and diastolic BP>90 as hypertension. Exclusion criteria included secondary hypertension, secondary cause of obesity, pregnancy, acu...

High versus low dose statin therapy in Indian patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing thrombolysis.
CONCLUSIONS: High-dose atorvastatin did not show significant difference of MACEs in STEMI patients undergoing thrombolysis but showed significant improvement in immediate coronary flow depicted by ST-segment resolution. This benefit of high dose statin is to be weighed against greater myalgia, drug discontinuation and cost in Indian patients. PMID: 28822510 [PubMed - in process]
