Functional limitation and chronic diseases are associated with food insecurity among U.S. adults
This study examined associations of functional limitation due to any health problems and six chronic diseases (arthritis, diabetes, coronary heart disease, heart attack, hypertension, and stroke) with food security among U.S. adults.

Predicting Pneumonia in Acute Stroke Patients Using the Glasgow Coma Scale Score
In stroke patients, the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is utilized to assess consciousness and brain injury. In this analysis, we aim to determine if GCS score at presentation predicts post-stroke pneumonia and mortality.

Sex Differences in the Impact of Acute Stroke Treatment: A New Analytic Approach to Minimize Treatment Selection Bias
We investigated whether sex modifies the association of acute stroke treatment on functional outcome using propensity score (PS) methods to minimize confounding and to explore differential effects of confounding factors by sex.

Sex differences in the impact of acute stroke treatment in a population-based study: a sex-specific propensity score approach
We investigated whether sex modifies the association of acute stroke treatment on functional outcome using propensity score (PS) methods to minimize confounding and to explore the differential effects of confounders by sex.

Air pollution and cardiovascular events at labor and delivery: a case-crossover analysis
In this case-crossover study, we investigated the odds of having a labor/delivery with cardiovascular event (i.e., ischemic heart disease, stroke, heart failure, cardiac arrest/failure, and other or unspecified cardiovascular events) associated with acute exposure to common air pollutants.

Investigation of selection bias in the association of race with prevalent atrial fibrillation in a national cohort study: REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is diagnosed more commonly in whites than blacks in the United States. In epidemiologic studies, selection bias could induce a noncausal positive association of white race with prevalent AF if voluntary enrollment was influenced by both race and AF status. We investigated whether nonrandom enrollment biased the association of race with prevalent self-reported AF in the US-based REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke Study (REGARDS).

Cardiovascular Disease Treatment Outcomes in Patients with Diabetes: Prediction Models Using Artificial Neural Networks and Logistic Regression
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is not only a major risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD); it also worsens CHD prognosis. The study's purpose was to investigate comparative effectiveness of two major CHD treatment procedures - coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) - in a population of CHD patients with DM (CHD-DM), using an artificial intelligence tool - artificial neural networks (ANN) - and a traditional multivariable logistic regression (MLR).

Time-Varying Causal Effects of Bacteremia and Sepsis on 5-Year Risk of Cardiovascular Events
To estimate the causal effects of bacteremia and sepsis episodes across multiple hospitalizations on the development of cardiovascular (CV) events, including stroke, transient ischemic attack and myocardial infarction (MI).

Is Receiving Post-Acute Care Associated with Subsequent Hospitalization Costs One Year After Stroke Among Medicare Beneficiaries?
We examined the relationship between PAC receipt after an initial ischemic stroke hospitalization (IISH) and subsequent hospitalization costs.

Dietary Flavonoid Intake and Incident Coronary Heart Disease in the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke Study (REGARDS)
Flavonoids are dietary polyphenolic compounds with a variety of proposed beneficial cardiovascular effects, but rigorous prospective data in representative samples are limited. We assessed the association between dietary flavonoid intake and incident coronary heart disease (CHD) in a biracial cohort.

Characteristics and prognosis of acute myocardial infarction by discharge diagnosis: the REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke study
To compare the characteristics and prognosis of acute myocardial infarctions (AMIs) that were not the primary reason for hospitalization, and thus not primary discharge diagnosis, to AMIs that were the primary reason for hospitalization.
