Prevalence and impact of cerebrovascular risk factors in patients with giant cell arteritis: An observational study from the Spanish national registry
CONCLUSION: Hypertension, along with male sex, was the strongest risk factor for cerebrovascular events in GCA patients. In these high-risk patients, antiplatelet therapy should be re-considered and evaluated in prospective studies.PMID:37105843 | DOI:10.1016/j.medcli.2023.04.004

One-year readmissions for circulatory diseases and in-hospital mortality after an index episode of heart failure in elderly patients. A nationwide data from public hospitals in Spain between 2016 and 2018
ConclusionsThe readmission rate for CSD 1-year after the index episode of HF in patients  ≥ 75 years was 28.4%. The cumulative in-hospital mortality rate during the readmissions was 26.9%, and the number of rehospitalizations was identified as one of the main predictors of mortality.Graphical abstract

Effect of Anticoagulation Duration on Stroke Incidence in Asian Patients With Left Ventricular Thrombus
Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) occurs in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and in ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies.1,2 LVT may result in embolic stroke.3 We read with interest the study by Lorente-Ros et  al4 published in the American Journal of Cardiology. That study, conducted in a Spanish cohort, found that prolonged anticoagulation>12  months for LVT was associated with lower stroke risk. We aimed to study the generalizability of these results in an Asian population because the original article was a single-center study with limited representation.

Impact of heart failure on the clinical profile and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation treated with rivaroxaban. Data from the EMIR study
CONCLUSIONS: Among AF patients anticoagulated with rivaroxaban, HF patients had a worse clinical profile and a higher MACE risk and cardiovascular mortality. HF was independently associated with the development of MACE, but not with thromboembolic events or major bleeding.PMID:36200548 | DOI:10.5603/CJ.a2022.0091
