Clustering populations by health and social care with multiple long-term conditions: a cohort study - the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA)
CONCLUSION: This study identified MLTC clusters by social care need with the highest primary care demand. Targeting clinical practice to prevent MLTC progression for these groups may lessen future pressures on primary care demand.PMID:37479312 | DOI:10.3399/bjgp23X734337

Incidence of Stroke in People With Diabetes Compared to Those Without
Diabetes: A Systematic Review
Conclusion The considerable differences between results can partly be

stroke, and methods used to identify patients with diabetes. The lack of
evidence arising from these differences ought to be rectified by new
studies. [...] Georg Thieme Verlag KG Rüdigerstraße 14, 70469 Stuttgart, GermanyArticle in Thieme eJournals: Table of contents | Abstract | open access Full text

Heat stroke—the most dangerous form of heat-related illness—is a growing threat and creates a public health quandary since there’s still no available treatment other than simply cooling victims down. What’s more, early research seems to suggest heat stroke could lead to further health con...
