Risk and population attributable fraction of stroke subtypes in Japan
CONCLUSION: Although there are differences according to the subtypes, hypertension could be regarded as the most crucial target for preventing strokes in Japan.PMID:37460296 | DOI:10.2188/jea.JE20220364

Computed Tomography Angiography Quantification of Intracranial and Extracranial Vascular Narrowing in Ischemic Stroke: Differences Between Patients With and Without Illicit Drug Use
CONCLUSIONS: By using computed tomography angiography, we found that stroke patients with history of cocaine consumption had a higher incidence of intracranial circulation narrowing compared with matched controls.PMID:36055121 | DOI:10.1097/RCT.0000000000001367

Ischemic stroke and intracranial hemorrhage in patients with recurrent glioblastoma multiforme, treated with bevacizumab
AbstractBevacizumab (BVZ), a monoclonal antibody directed against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), has been suspected to increase the incidence of ischemic stroke (IS) and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in GBM patients. Intracranial vascular events, such as IS and ICH, were retrospectively analyzed in 364 MRI scans of 82 patients with recurrent GBM (1st/2nd/3rd relapse). Out of these 82 patients, 40 were treated with BVZ (178 scans) in addition to basic treatment, whereas 42 patients matching for age and gender received basic treatment (186 scans). Distribution of typical vascular risk factors between both groups ...

Cardiovascular conditions and obesity among gynecologic cancer survivors: Results from the 2020 behavioral risk factor surveillance system survey
CONCLUSIONS: Gynecologic cancer survivors are more likely than persons without a cancer history to have cardiovascular disease and other chronic illnesses, and they have a higher prevalence of heart attack, stroke, and obesity. These results underscore the sizeable opportunities for primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention of cardiovascular health conditions among gynecologic cancer survivors.PMID:35437169 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2022.03.025

Dietary inflammatory index and cardiovascular disease risk in Hispanic women from the Women's Health Initiative
CONCLUSION: Among postmenopausal Hispanic women with overweight, greater adherence to pro-inflammatory diets was associated with higher risk of CVD. Additional research is needed to understand how to promote long-term heart-healthy dietary habits to reduce inflammation and prevent CVD in at-risk Hispanic women.PMID:36631866 | DOI:10.1186/s12937-023-00838-9

Association between physical activity and subsequent cardiovascular disease among 5-year breast cancer survivors
ConclusionsThe study showed that even small amounts of PA may be beneficial in potentially decreasing the risk of CVD, CHD, and stroke in breast cancer survivors. Our result will be useful to prescribe and delivery exercise among long-term breast cancer survivors.

How do patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus value the importance of outcomes? An overview of reviews
CONCLUSION: We provide standardised, reliable utility values (or associated disutilities) for T2DM, acute, microvascular and macrovascular complications, related comorbidities and treatments that may support judgements when making clinical recommendations, designing decision support tools, and developing interventions and economic analysis.PMID:37516195 | DOI:10.1016/j.jval.2023.07.003

Treatment and survival of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis associated hepatocellular carcinoma
Background: The incidence of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is increasing worldwide and a poorly defined subset of patients develops end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Differences in the biological behaviour, tumour characteristics, associated risk factors, treatment outcomes and overall survival of patients with NASH-HCC remain poorly defined. The aim of this study was to determine and analyze these differences in a large clinical cohort to guide treatment decisions. Methods: 1119 patients with HCC treated in an 11 year period at the University Medical Centre of the Johannes Gutenberg Unive...

Abstract SY02-03: Mediators of the effect of overweight and obesity on cardiovascular disease and cancer: Evidence from pooling of prospective studies
ConclusionControlling diabetes may reduce the harmful effect of obesity on cancer. Recent advances in causal inference and mediation analysis can be readily applied to estimate the direct and mediated effects of lifestyle and metabolic risk factors on cancer.Citation Format: Goodarz Danaei.
