The Application of the GP Model to Manage Controllable Risk Factors in Stroke Patients with Diabetes Can Effectively Improve the Prognosis and Reduce the Recurrence Rate
CONCLUSION: The application of the GP model to manage controllable risk factors in stroke patients with diabetes can effectively improve the prognosis and reduce the recurrence rate, which is worthy of clinical application and promotion.PMID:35966752 | PMC:PMC9374552 | DOI:10.1155/2022/5413985

Prevalence of and Factors Associated With the Prescription of Fibrates Among Patients Receiving Lipid-Lowering Drugs in Germany
Abstract: Little recent data are available about the patterns of prescription for fibrates in patients followed in primary care practices. Therefore, the goal of this study was to analyze the prevalence of and the factors associated with the use of fibrates among patients receiving lipid-lowering drugs in Germany. The study included patients aged ≥18 years with at least 1 visit to 1 of 1070 general practices in Germany between January and December 2019. Lipid-lowering drugs included statins (without and with ezetimibe) and fibrates. The prevalence of the prescription of fibrates corresponded to the number of patients...

Predicting the risk of stroke in patients with late-onset epilepsy: A machine learning approach
CONCLUSION: The stroke risk in patients with epilepsy was relatively high and could be predicted based on comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, heart failure, and alcohol dependence. Knowing and addressing these factors may help reduce the risk of stroke in patients with epilepsy.PMID:34325155 | DOI:10.1016/j.yebeh.2021.108211

Predicting the Risk of Ischemic Stroke in Patients Treated with Novel Oral Anticoagulants: A Machine Learning Approach
Conclusions: The stroke risk in AF patients treated with NOAC could be predicted based on comorbidities like ischemic heart diseases, urinary tract infections, and dementia additionally to age and male sex. Knowing and addressing these factors may help reduce the risk of stroke in this patient population.Neuroepidemiology

The Characteristics of Patients With Possible Transient Ischemic Attack and Minor Stroke in the Hunter and Manning Valley Regions, Australia (the INSIST Study)
Conclusion: This study provides the first contemporary data on TIAMS or TIAMS-mimics in Australia. Community and health provider education is required to address the under-use of anticoagulation therapy in patients with known AF, possibly inappropriate use of antiplatelet therapy and possibly inappropriate discontinuation of antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy.

Comorbidity in patients with cardiovascular disease in primary care: a cohort study with routine healthcare data.
CONCLUSION: Comorbid conditions are very common in patients with CVD, even in younger age groups. To ensure efficient and effective treatment, organisational adaptations may be required in the healthcare system to accommodate comorbid conditions in patients with CVD.

Sex Differences in the Occurrence of Major Clinical Events in Elderly People with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Followed up in the General Practice
Conclusions Elderly women with well-controlled type 2 diabetes were less likely to experience major clinical events than their male counterparts. More studies are needed to determine the reasons for the higher hospitalization rate in men.

Low annual frequency of HbA1c testing in people with Type 2 diabetes in primary care practices in Germany
ConclusionsOnly three out of four individuals with Type 2 diabetes underwent at least two HbA1c tests in Germany in 2016, which means that 25% of individuals underwent fewer tests than required by German guidelinesThis article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Community-Based Intervention to Improve Cardiometabolic Targets in Patients With Stroke Clinical Sciences
Conclusions—The intervention in this largely negative trial only had a detectable effect on attaining target for lipids but not for other factors at 12 months or any factor at 24 months. This limited effect may be attributable to inadequate uptake of behavioral/lifestyle interventions, highlighting the need for new or better approaches to achieve meaningful behavioral change.Clinical Trial Registration—URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Comparison of self-perceived cardiovascular disease risk among smokers with Framingham and PROCAM scores: a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a randomised controlled trial
Conclusions Among smokers, misperception of their 10-year cardiovascular risk is common, with one-fifth underestimating it. These findings may help physicians target patients with such characteristics to help them change their health behaviour and adherence to risk-reduction therapy. Trial registration number NCT00548665; Post-results.
