Risks of neurological and psychiatric sequelae 2 years after hospitalisation or intensive care admission with COVID-19 compared to admissions for other causes
Brain Behav Immun. 2023 May 30:S0889-1591(23)00132-0. doi: 10.1016/j.bbi.2023.05.014. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe association between COVID-19 and subsequent neurological and psychiatric disorders is well established. However, two important questions remain unanswered. First, what are the risks in those admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19? Admission to ICU is itself associated with neurological and psychiatric sequelae and it is not clear whether COVID-19 further increases those risks or changes their profile. Second, what are the trajectories of neurological and psychiatric risks in patients admitted...

Improving stroke Emergency Department nursing care: The Code Stroke 2.0 pre-test/post-test feasibility study
Activation of an acute ‘Code Stroke’ pathway on hospital arrival improves thrombolysis rates. Whilst post-stroke protocols to manage fever, hyperglycaemia, and dysphagia (Fever, Sugar and Swallow (FeSS) Protocols) have been shown to reduce death and dependency, facilitated implementation in Emergency Department (ED) has been difficult.

Rescue aortic valvuloplasty for severe aortic stenosis is simple and effective in severely hemodynamically compromised patients presenting to centers without on-site heart surgery or TAVI facilities
AbstractManagement of high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a challenging issue. The prognosis of patients with AS presenting with therapy-refractory pulmonary edema (RPE) or cardiogenic shock (CS) remains poor. The purpose of this study was to assess the 30-day mortality of rescue percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (PBAV) in AS patients presenting with RPE or CS in a community-based hospital without on- site heart surgery. From January 2016 to February 2019, we identified consecutively admitted patients with CS or RPE related to severe AS who underwent emergent PBAV. The primary end...

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 5213: Attempt to Make the Upper-Limb Item of Objective Fugl & ndash;Meyer Assessment Using 9-Axis Motion Sensors
This study aimed to create a more objective and standardized evaluation based on an FMA of the upper-limb items. A total of 30 first-ever stroke patients (65.3 ± 10.3 years old) and 15 healthy participants (35.4 ± 13.4 years old) admitted to Itami Kousei Neurosurgical Hospital were included. A nine-axis motion sensor was attached to the participants, and the joint angles of 17 upper-limb items (excluding fingers) and 23 FMA upper-limb items (excluding reflexes and fingers) were measured. From the measurement results, we analyzed the time-series data of each movement and obtained the correlatio...

Sociodemographic disparities in concomitant left atrial appendage occlusion during cardiac valve operations
by Ayesha P. Ng, Nikhil Chervu, Yas Sanaiha, Amulya Vadlakonda, Elsa Kronen, Peyman Benharash
BackgroundSociodemographic disparities in atrial fibrillation (AF) management and thromboembolic prophylaxis have previously been reported, which may involve inequitable access to left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) during cardiac surgery. The present study aimed to evaluate the association of LAAO utilization with sex, race, and hospital region among patients with AF undergoing heart valve operations. MethodsAdults with AF undergoing valve replacement/repair in the 2012 –2019 National Inpatient Sample were identified and str...

Observational Study of Patients Hospitalized With Neurologic Events After SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination, December 2020-June 2021
Discussion
All cases in this study were determined to have at least 1 risk factor and/or known etiology accounting for their neurologic syndromes. Our comprehensive clinical review of these cases supports the safety of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.

What to Know About High Triglycerides
Discussions about heart health often center around blood pressure and cholesterol, with factors like poor sleep, smoking, family history of heart disease, and chronic stress thrown in. However, there’s one variable that doesn’t get covered as often, even though it can be an important indicator of cardiovascular risk: triglycerides.
“We don’t really talk about triglycerides very much, especially compared to cholesterol, but they’re actually an essential part of understanding heart health,” says Dr. Adriana Quinones-Camacho, a cardiologist at NYU Langone Health in New York. “For some...

Real-world clinical outcomes among US Veterans with oral factor xa inhibitor –related major bleeding treated with andexanet alfa or 4-factor prothrombin complex concentrate
AbstractOral factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors significantly reduce incidence of stroke and thromboembolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism. Due to various factors and the lack of a randomized controlled trial comparing andexanet alfa to usual care, non-specific replacement agents including 4 F-PCC are still used off-label for FXa inhibitor bleed management. Clinical and mortality data were extracted from the inpatient medical data and Veteran Affairs (VA) vital status files over the time of March 2014 through December 2020. Propensity score-weighted models were used for this retrospec tive ...

Incidence and Risk Factors for Dysphagia Following Cerebellar Stroke: a Retrospective Cohort Study
This study aimed to investigate the incidence rate of dysphagia and the factors which may affect the presence of dysphagia and clinical recovery in individuals diagnosed with cerebellar stroke. A retrospective chart audit of 1651 post-stroke patients (1049 males and 602 females) admitted with a cerebellar stroke to a comprehensive tertiary hospital in China was conducted. Data on demographics, medical, along with swallowing function assessment were collected. Differences between dysphagic and non-dysphagic groups were evaluated using t-tests and Pearson's chi-square test. Univariate logistic regression analysis was perform...
