Pharmacoepidemiologic study of association between apparent treatment resistant hypertension, cardiovascular disease and interaction effect by sex and age
CONCLUSION: aTRH was significantly associated with an increased risk of CVD and this association was modified by both sex and age. Further studies are warranted to test these mechanisms.PMID:37274374 | PMC:PMC10237003 | DOI:10.4330/wjc.v15.i5.262

Association of serum uric acid with risk of stroke in US adults: A cross-sectional study from NHANES 1999 –2020
Stroke is the second-most global death cause, only after ischemic heart disease, and third-most contributor to disability1, making it a major therapeutic challenge. More than 100 million individuals worldwide experience stroke every year, of which 795,000 cases are in the United States.2 Therefore, improved preventive strategies are needed; particularly, strategies targeting the modifiable risk factors of stroke, such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia, may help prevent more than approximately 90% of stroke cases.

The epidemiology, mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease in adult patients with HIV
This article discusses the complex interactions involving HIV infection, the novel and traditional risk factors for CVD, and the antiretroviral HIV therapies which can contribute to CVD in HIV-infected people. In addition, the treatment of HIV+ patients with acute myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiomyopathy/heart failure are discussed. Current recommended ART and their major side effects are summarized in table format. All medical personnel must be aware of the increasing incidence of CVD on the morbidity and mortality in HIV infected patients and must be watchful for the presence of CVD in their patients with HIV.PM...

Assessment of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies: a systematic review
AbstractWe performed a systematic review of cardiovascular risk factors in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) and their cardiovascular outcomes, including acute coronary syndrome and stroke. A qualitative systematic review was conducted from January 1956 to December 2022 according to the PRISMA protocol using three electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. The studies were analyzed based on the following eligibility criteria: at least one combination of the terms described in the search strategy appeared in the title, written in English, Portuguese, or Spanish, and addressed risk factors for cardio...

Stroke-related risk factors during pregnancy in women who underwent metabolic and bariatric surgery compared with women who have not undergone metabolic and bariatric surgery
CONCLUSIONS: MBS helps women lose weight and decrease the incidence of some pregnancy-related risk factors for stroke. However, there is a notable racial health disparity.PMID:37150625 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2023.03.017

Empowering stroke survivors: understanding the role of multidisciplinary rehabilitation Impact of stroke
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, with someone having a stroke every 40 seconds in the United-States[1]. A stroke can occur by clot that interrupts blood flow in the brain. It can also be caused by a burst of a blood vessel that causes bleeding in the brain. There are also other unknown causes of stroke which occur less frequently. A stroke causes brain cells to die as they no longer receive oxygen and nutrients from the blood. Some of the most common risk factors of stroke are high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart diseases, diabetes, smoking, physical inactivity, and obesity[2].

Stroke Mortality Among Black and White Adults Aged ≥35 Years Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic - United States, 2015-2021
MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2023 Apr 21;72(16):431-436. doi: 10.15585/mmwr.mm7216a4.ABSTRACTStroke is the fifth leading cause of death and a leading cause of long-term disability in the United States (1). Although stroke death rates have declined since the 1950s, age-adjusted rates remained higher among non-Hispanic Black or African American (Black) adults than among non-Hispanic White (White) adults (1,2). Despite intervention efforts to reduce racial disparities in stroke prevention and treatment through reducing stroke risk factors, increasing awareness of stroke symptoms, and improving access to treatment and care for s...
