Ischemic Stroke Management: Posthospitalization and Transition of Care
Am Fam Physician. 2023 Jul;108(1):70-77.ABSTRACTIschemic stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack exist on a continuum of the same disease process. Ischemic stroke is common, and more than 85% of stroke risk is attributed to modifiable risk factors. The initial management of acute stroke is usually performed in the emergency department and hospital settings.

Percutaneous Left Atrial Appendage Closure Among Patients With Diabetes (Insights from a National Database)
Atrial fibrillation is a major risk factor for stroke. Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as an alternative to anticoagulation for patients with high risk of bleeding. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with adverse events after cardiac procedures. We sought to compare procedural and hospital outcomes in patients who underwent LAAC with and without DM. The Nationwide Inpatient Database was queried for patients with atrial fibrillation who underwent LAAC between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2019.

However, subtle clinical presentation as in our case should alert the clinician to consider such a diagnosis as it can be associated with good prognosis.AbstractBilateral thalamic infarct is a rare form of stroke. Mostly thalamic infarcts are unilateral. In most cases, bilateral thalamic infarction leads to cognitive dysfunction, opthalmoparesis, conscious impairment, behavioral disturbance, and corticospinal dysfunction.

We report the case of a 60-year-old woman with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus who presented to the hospital with a complaint of progressive altered mental status for the past two days. Eight days prior to presentation, the patient tripped over a pillow at home and developed mildly nagging, acute lower back pain. Upon the recommendation of her friends, she underwent two sessions of acupuncture around the lumbar area on days six and five prior to being brought to the hospital. She also saw her primary care physician on day three prior to presentation, who performed a history and physical examination and, after feeling that sh...

Impact of polyethylene glycol loxenatide on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes: study protocol for a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (BALANCE-3)
This study is a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients with T2DM who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomly divided to receive weekly administration of either PEG-Loxe 0.2 mg or placebo (1:1 ratio). The randomisation was stratified according to utilisation of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, history of CV disease and body mass index. The research period is expected to be 3 years, with a 1-year recruitment period and a 2-year follow-up period. The primary outcome is the occurrence of the first MACE, described as CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or non-fatal strok...
