Short-term cardiovascular events after bariatric surgery in patients with metabolic syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with MetS have an increased frequency of cardiac events following bariatric surgery. Future studies should determine if optimization of 1 or more components of MetS or other related co-morbidities reduces the cardiovascular risk for patients.PMID:37659898 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2023.07.009

Healthcare expenditure trends among adult stroke patients in the United States, 2011-2020
In the US, between 2018 and 2019, approximately $57 billion were expended on stroke and related conditions. The aim of this study was to understand trends in direct healthcare expenditures among stroke patients using novel cost estimation methods and a nationally representative database.

Unlocking Cardiovascular Health
In 2011, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published the “Ten Great Public Health Achievements—United States, 2001–2010.”1 Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention made the list. Indeed, the combination of reductions in major cardiovascular risk factors, such as elevated blood pressure, high cholesterol, and smoking, combined with improvements in t reatments led to a substantial reduction in the prevalence of stroke and coronary heart disease over the past decades. Unfortunately, heart disease and stroke continue to be responsible for more deaths than cancer and lung diseases combined.

A Shorter Door-In-Door-Out Time Is Associated with Improved Outcome in Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke
We examined the association between DIDO times and 90-day outcomes as measured by the modi fied Rankin scale.Results: A total of 435 patients were included in the final analysis. The mean DIDO time for patients with good outcomes was 17 minute shorter than patients with poor outcomes (122 minutes [min] vs 139 min, P = 0.04)....

To support the use of NT-proBNP to better detect heart failure in patients with type 2 diabetes
ConclusionThese determinants might contribute to investigate the NT-proBNP in T2DM sufferers. A decision support system to appropriately ease the prescription of NT-proBNP might be therefore implemented in primary care settings.

Device use trends in neuroendovascular procedures in the United States from 2015 to 2020
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates an increase in the use of flow-diverting stents, nondiverting stents, carotid stents, and reperfusion devices for acute ischemic stroke intervention between 2015 and 2020. Coil use for aneurysmal treatment has declined.PMID:37642975 | DOI:10.1177/15910199231196329

Safety, tolerability and feasibility of remotely-instructed home-based transcranial direct current stimulation in children with cerebral palsy
Perinatal stroke or brain bleeds affect an estimated 1 in 3500 births in the United States, with an increased risk of developing cerebral palsy (CP), a developmental disorder associated with motor impairment [1,2]. While many CP rehabilitation approaches emphasize behavioral repetition to improve gait and upper extremity function, these therapies are costly, restricted to the clinic, and may offer limited functional gains [3]. Therefore, innovative rehabilitation strategies which are accessible, cost-effective, and time-efficient are indicated for long-term benefits.

Post-stroke pneumonia: Factors associated with readmission within 90 days of stroke discharge
Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death and a leading cause of disability within the United States.1,2 On average, a stroke occurs every 40 seconds and accounts for approximately 1 in every 19 deaths.2 The prevalence of stroke is projected to increase by 20.5% from 2012 to 2030.2 Post-stroke complications are prevalent; infection occurs among 30% of acute cases.3 Pneumonia is one of the most common post-stroke infections and is associated with increased morbidity.4,5 Moreover, pneumonia is recognized as an independent risk factor for stroke-related mortality.

Trends in Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Cancer in the United States (1999 to 2020)
Cancer has been identified as an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation (AF). Although the development of novel therapeutic agents has led to significant improvement in cancer-related outcomes, there is also a rising concern regarding the long-term impact of treatment-emergent cardiac adverse events such as AF.1 AF portends a poor prognosis in patients with cancer and is also associated with a twofold increase in the risk of stroke as compared with patients with AF without cancer.2 However, population-level data on the impact of AF on overall cardiovascular mortality in patients with cancer remain limited.
