Contribution of Current Comorbid Conditions to Carotid Artery Stenosis in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass and Stroke Distribution in Carotid Artery Stenosis Groups
CONCLUSION: For the preoperative detection of CAS in patients undergoing CABG, the association of advanced age, PAD, DM, male gender, COPD, LMCAD, and hypertension risk factors should be considered. We suggest that carotid screening should be performed in those over 65 years of age and with PAD+DM. Studies with large populations are needed to observe the effects of aortic atherosclerosis load, surgical procedure, and unilateral/bilateral CAS presence on the development of stroke in patients with severe CAS and postoperative CVA.PMID:34473023 | DOI:10.1532/hsf.3945

Unusual complication of vertebral arterial dissection
Discussion This patient had subacute onset of cervical cord infarction. The history and MRI findings were in keeping with cervical dissection. The vertebral artery is most vulnerable as it travels in the vertebral foramen and makes a curvature at C1–2 and dissection at this point usually causing cerebellar infarction and lateral medullary syndrome. A spinal cord infarct may occur if the extra–cranial vertebral artery is involved. Intracranial vertebral arterial dissection has a poor prognosis for neurological recovery but are usually not fatal. Extracranial VAD may cause spinal cord infarction but respiratory f...

Models of Care for Late-Life Depression of the Medically Ill: Examples from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Stroke.
We describe two intervention models that can be used to target and personalize treatment in depressed, chronically, or acutely medically ill older adults. The Personalized Adherence Intervention for Depression and COPD (PID-C) is a model intervention for depressed patients with chronic medical illnesses. It targets patient-specific barriers to treatment engagement and aims to shift the balance in favor of treatment participation. PID-C led to higher remission rates of depression, reduction in depressive symptoms, and reduction in dyspnea-related disability. The addition of problem-solving training enables patients to use r...
