Acute coronary syndrome in very elderly patients —a real-world experience
AbstractVery elderly population constitutes an increasingly larger proportion of patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Notably, age represents both a proxy of frailty and an exclusion criterion in clinical randomized trials, which probably contributes to lack of data and undertreatment of real-world elderly patients. The aim of the study is to describe patterns of treatment and outcome of very elderly patients with ACS. All consecutive patients aged ≥ 80 years old (yo) admitted between January 2017 and December 2019 with ACS were included. The primary endpoint was in-hospital occurrence of major adv...

Pediatric arterial ischemic stroke in Japan: Moyamoya disease or not
In this study, among 93 responders from physicians in 50 pediatric hospitals, consensus agreement, being available to treat pediatric AIS, was 90.3% in the use of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and 77.4% in mechanical thrombectomy.

The weekend effect in aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage: a single centre experience and review
This study evaluates the effect of weekend admission on patients in our unit with aSAH in terms of time to treatment, treatment type, rebleeding rates, functional outcome, and mortality. We analysed a retrospective database of all patients admitted to our tertiary referral centre with aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage between February 2016 and February 2020. Chi-square tests andt-tests were used to compare weekday and weekend demographic and clinical variables. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess for any association between admission during weekend hours and increased neurolo...

Correlation Analysis of Persistence and Recurrence of Stroke in Young Patients Based on Big Data in Healthcare
This study aims to analyze the correlation between the persistence and recurrence of stroke in young patients via big data in healthcare. It provides an in-depth introduction to the background of big data in healthcare and a detailed description of stroke symptoms, so as to better apply the Apriori parallelization algorithm based on compression matrix (PBCM) algorithm against the background of big data in healthcare to analyze it. In our study, patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. By observing the different persistent relationships in the groups, the factors affecting the patients' fasting blood glucose (FBG), gly...

Straight from the heart: Mysterious lipids may predict cardiac problems better than cholesterol
Stephanie Blendermann, 65, had good reason to worry about heart disease. Three of her sisters died in their 40s or early 50s from heart attacks, and her father needed surgery to bypass clogged arteries. She also suffered from an autoimmune disorder that results in chronic inflammation and boosts the odds of developing cardiovascular illnesses. “I have an interesting medical chart,” says Blendermann, a real estate agent in Prior Lake, Minnesota.
Yet Blendermann’s routine lab results weren’t alarming. At checkups, her low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad,” cholesterol hovered around the 100 milligrams-per-...
