Maternal and neonatal complications in women with congenital heart disease: a nationwide analysis
ConclusionsThis population-based study illustrates a reassuringly low maternal mortality rate in a highly developed healthcare system. Nevertheless, maternal morbidity and neonatal morbidity/mortality were significantly increased in women with ACHD and their offspring compared to non-ACHD controls highlighting the need of specialized care and pre-pregnancy counselling.

Comparative Risk of Arterial Thromboembolic Events Between Aflibercept and Ranibizumab in Patients with Maculopathy: A Population-Based Retrospective Cohort Study
ConclusionThe use of aflibercept in patients with maculopathy was associated with a lower risk of ATE than was the use of ranibizumab. There was no difference in mortality risk between the two groups. Our study could provide strong grounds for future prospective studies to confirm the findings.

Association between blood pressure categories and cardiovascular disease mortality in China
ConclusionsPrehypertension-high should be considered in CVD primary prevention given its high prevalence and increased CVD risk. All hypertension subtypes were independently associated with CVD and its subtypes mortality, though the strength of associations varied substantially.

Hospitalization for adverse events under abiraterone or enzalutamide exposure in real-world setting: a French population-based study on prostate cancer patients
CONCLUSION: Our study provides knowledge on abiraterone and enzalutamide real-life safety profiles, especially for events leading to hospitalisation. Despite several limitations, including the lack of clinical data, the safety signal for AKI under abiraterone is in line with results of an analysis of the French pharmacovigilance database, which requires further specific investigations. Enlightening the clinicians' therapeutic choices for patients treated for prostate cancer, our study should lead to clinicians to be cautious in the use of abiraterone.PMID:34224605 | DOI:10.1111/bcp.14972

Commentary: In the era of mitral valve-in-valve therapy, mechanical prosthesis in young patients does not deserve to be forgotten
Chen and colleagues1 from Memorial Hospital of Taoyaun in Taiwan analyzed, retrospectively, the results of patients who received either biological or mechanical valve for mitral valve replacement in rheumatic heart disease. Patient data were extracted from the National Health Insurance administrative database in Taiwan. Propensity score analysis yielded 2 paired groups of 788 patients. No significant difference in terms of in-hospital mortality were observed between the 2 matched groups. Regarding late outcomes, all-cause mortality at 10  years was in favor of the mechanical valve group, risk of stroke tended to be higher...

Valuing health states of people with type  2 diabetes: Analyses of the nationwide representative linked databases
ConclusionsMajor vascular complications, connective tissue disease and depression are associated with considerably worse health ‐related quality of life. These health utility estimates can facilitate health economic evaluations to determine cost‐effective strategies for diabetes management.

Effectiveness and Safety of Non-Vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants in Asian Patients with Atrial Fibrillation and Valvular Heart Disease.
CONCLUSIONS: NOACs had a comparable risk of ischemic stroke and bleeding in patients with AF and VHD, and reduced the risk of venous thromboembolism, intracranial hemorrhage, and mortality, compared to warfarin. Therefore, NOAC is an effective and safe alternative to warfarin in these patients. PMID: 33538623 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Number of Social Determinants of Health and Fatal and Nonfatal Incident Coronary Heart Disease in the Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) Study.
Conclusions: A greater burden of SDH was associated with a graded increase in risk of incident CHD, with greater magnitude and independent associations for fatal incident CHD. Counting the number of SDH may be a promising approach that could be incorporated into clinical care to identify individuals at high risk of CHD. PMID: 33269599 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 8900: Multimorbidity Patterns of Chronic Diseases among Indonesians: Insights from Indonesian National Health Insurance (INHI) Sample Data
a-Yu Su Given the increasing burden of chronic diseases in Indonesia, characteristics of chronic multimorbidities have not been comprehensively explored. Therefore, this research evaluated chronic multimorbidity patterns among Indonesians using Indonesian National Health Insurance (INHI) sample data. We included 46 chronic diseases and analyzed their distributions using population-weighted variables provided in the datasets. Results showed that chronic disease patients accounted for 39.7% of total patients who attended secondary health care in 2015–2016. In addition, 43.1% of those were identified as havi...
