Long-term cardiovascular outcomes and temporal trends in patients diagnosed with ANCA-associated vasculitis: a Danish nationwide registry study
ConclusionsPatients with AAV are at increased risk of heart failure, atrial-/ventricular arrhythmias, venous thrombotic events, ischaemic stroke and myocardial infarction. Furthermore, patients with AAV were more frequently examined with coronary procedures and underwent more coronary revascularizations. No temporal changes in ischaemic cardiovascular outcomes were observed, albeit the cardiovascular mortality has decreased over time.

In-hospital adverse events in low-risk patients with acute myocardial infarction - Potential implications for earlier discharge
CONCLUSION: In patients with acute MI with low GRACE and/or CADILLAC risk scores who were free from acute events within 3 days, early discharge after primary percutaneous coronary intervention may be feasible and safe.PMID:35078684 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2022.01.003

Short-term and long-term mortality associated with ventricular arrhythmia in patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome: findings from the Gulf RACE registry-2
Objectives: Ventricular arrhythmia (VA) in the setting of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) carries an ominous prognosis; however, long-term prognosis associated with VA in ACS in the Middle East is unknown. Accordingly, we sought to assess the incidence, in-hospital outcomes, and 1-year mortality of in-hospital VA in patients with ACS. Methods and results: The Second Gulf Registry of Acute Coronary Events (Gulf RACE-2) is a multinational observational study of patients with ACS, which enrolled 7930 patients. Of these, 333 (4.2%) developed VA during hospitalization. Patients with VA were significantly older (mean age 58.3 vs. ...
