Race, ethnicity, sex, and socioeconomic disparities in anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation: A narrative review of contemporary literature
J Natl Med Assoc. 2023 Mar 5:S0027-9684(23)00034-2. doi: 10.1016/j.jnma.2023.02.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia in the United States and is responsible for 1 in 7 ischemic strokes. While anticoagulation is effective at preventing strokes, prior work has highlighted significant disparities in anticoagulation prescribing. Furthermore, racial, ethnic, sex, and socioeconomic disparities in AF outcomes have been described. As such, we aimed to review recent data on disparities with respect to anticoagulation for AF published between January 2018 and February 2021. The...

Primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia living in africa: the false choice between patient-oriented research and humanitarian service-part ii
Trans Am Clin Climatol Assoc. 2022;132:236-248.ABSTRACTIn the United States, primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) is the standard of care and includes annual transcranial Doppler ultrasound to detect elevated velocities. For children with velocities ≥200 cm/sec, initial monthly blood transfusion therapy for at least a year, followed by the option of hydroxyurea therapy, results in a significant decline in the stroke rate. In Africa, no prior strategy exists for primary stroke prevention because regular blood transfusion therapy is not feasible. We completed a randomized controlled trial for...
