Abstract No. 565 Trends in utilization of endotracheal anesthesia for mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke in the United States
The literature on uniform baseline parameters and procedural details of general anesthesia in mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is scarce. Given the increasing volume of thrombectomies for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), understanding the effects of endotracheal anesthesia with intubation (ETI) on outcomes is time-critical and imperative. Here, we used a national database to compare the trends in utilization and outcomes of ETI vs non-ETI anesthesia in MT for AIS.

New Data From Two Large Studies Reinforce Effectiveness of Dual Pathway Inhibition (DPI) with XARELTO ® (rivaroxaban) Plus Aspirin in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and/or Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
RARITAN, N.J., May 23, 2022 – Findings from the XARELTO® (rivaroxaban) Phase 3 COMPASS Long-Term Open Label Extension (LTOLE) study and the XARELTO® in Combination with Acetylsalicylic Acid (XATOA) registry have been published in the European Society of Cardiology’s (ESC) European Heart Journal, Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy. Additionally, the XATOA registry was presented at the American Congress of Cardiology’s 71st Annual Scientific Session (ACC.22). These studies provide further evidence supporting the role of dual pathway inhibition (DPI) with the XARELTO® vascular dose (2.5 mg twice daily plus aspirin 100 mg...

Functional Recovery in Patients with Acute Stroke and Pre-Existing Disability: A Natural History Study
One million strokes occur in the United States every year, with as many as 1 in 3 occurring among patients with a pre-existing disability.1,2 Though they are a significant portion of the stroke population, such patients are often excluded from interventional trials.3-5 As a result, acute ischemic stroke patients with pre-morbid disability are often omitted from clinical practice treatment guidelines, such as for mechanical thrombectomy (MT). In the latest American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines, MT is only indicated for patients with no pre-stroke disability, as defined by a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score of 0-1.

Comparison of Stroke Risk Factors Between Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Patients in a North American Moyamoya Disease Cohort
Conclusions: No significant differences in the prevalence of stroke risk factors between MMD cohorts was found, corroborating evidence provided in a recent Japanese-based study. There were no apparent associations between s troke risk factors and interval cerebrovascular events in an asymptomatic group of MMD patients.

State-of-the-Art Review: Evidence on Red Meat Consumption and Hypertension Outcomes
Am J Hypertens. 2022 May 13:hpac064. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpac064. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypertension (HTN) is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including ischemic heart disease, stroke, heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The prevalence of HTN, as well as mortality rates attributable to HTN, continue to increase, particularly in the United States and among Black populations. The risk of HTN involves a complex interaction of genetics and modifiable risk factors, including dietary patterns. In this regard, there is accumulating evidence that links dietary intake of red meat with a high...

Mechanical thrombectomy beyond the circle of Willis: efficacy and safety of different techniques for M2 occlusions
Conclusion Stent-retrievers and a combined approach for M2 occlusions seem more effective than direct aspiration, but with higher rates of iSAH. This leads to no detectable difference in clinical outcome at 3 months.

Long-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and associations with cardiopulmonary diseases and lung cancer in Taiwan: a nationwide longitudinal cohort study
ConclusionsLong-term exposure to intermediate levels of ambient PM2.5 was associated with cardiopulmonary health outcomes. Our study adds value to future application and national burden of disease estimation in evaluating the health co-benefits from ambient air pollution reduction policy in Asian countries.

Vascular Risk Factor Prevalence and Trends in Native Americans with Ischemic Stroke
Native Americans have a higher incidence and prevalence of stroke and the highest stroke-related mortality among race-ethnic groups in the United States. We aimed to analyze trends in the ischemic stroke (IS) vascular risk factor prevalence in Native Americans along with a comparison to the other race-ethnic groups.

Implementing federal food service guidelines in federal and private worksite cafeterias in the United States leads to improved health outcomes and is cost saving
AbstractPoor diet increases cardiometabolic disease risk, yet the impact of food service guidelines on employee health and its cost effectiveness is poorly understood. Federal food service guidelines (FFSG) aim to provide United States (U.S.) government employees with healthier food options. Using microsimulation modeling, we estimated changes in the incidence of cardiometabolic disease, related mortality, and the cost effectiveness of implementing FFSG in nationally representative model populations of government and private company employees across 5 years and lifetime. We based estimates on changes in workplace intake of...
