High consumption of dairy products and risk of major adverse coronary events and stroke in a Swedish population
Br J Nutr. 2023 Sep 6:1-28. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523001939. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe association between consumption of dairy products and risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) has been inconsistent. There is a lack of studies in populations with high intakes of dairy products. We aimed to examine the association between intake of dairy products and risk of incident major adverse coronary events and stroke in the Swedish Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort study. We included 26,190 participants without prevalent CVD or diabetes. Dietary habits were obtained from a modified diet history and endpoint data were extracted f...

Safeguarding Against Stroke Risk by Statins
Whereas mighty prospective randomized trials —and meta-analyses of these—rightly command the data used to drive guidelines and daily clinical practice, careful long-term follow-up of closely monitored cohorts can generate crucial discoveries not anticipated in a 5-year study. As just one example, findings from lifelong follow-up in the Ame rican Framingham studies and the Whitehall cohorts in the United Kingdom show a strong association between blood pressure in middle years and dementia in later life.

Evaluation of extended-length cannula inserted using ultrasound guidance in patients with difficult IV access
This article reports on the results of introducing extended-length PIVCs, inserted using ultrasound guidance in patients with DIVA by a vascular access team. This began in 2019, across an adult tertiary hospital setting in the NHS with about 750 beds. The specialties at this hospital include, but are not limited to, emergency medicine; head and neck; vascular; diabetes and endocrinology; respiratory; care of the older person; stroke services; gastroenterology; and trauma and orthopaedics. The vascular access team recorded 1485 individual insertions between 2019 to 2022, with a mean dwell time of 6 days, a first attempt suc...

Insights into acute mesenteric ischaemia: an up-to-date, evidence-based review from a mesenteric stroke centre unit
Br J Radiol. 2023 Jul 26:20230232. doi: 10.1259/bjr.20230232. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRadiologists play a central role in the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of patients with acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI). Unfortunately, more than half of AMI patients undergo imaging with no prior suspicion of AMI, making identifying this disease even more difficult. A confirmed diagnosis of AMI is ideally made with dynamic contrast-enhanced CT but the diagnosis may be made on portal-venous phase images in appropriate clinical settings. AMI is diagnosed on CT based on the identification of vascular impairment and bowel ischae...
