Combined coronary and carotid artery disease: what to operate on first? or both at the same time?
Heart disease and stroke rank amongst the top four leading causes of death in the United States.1 Studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between the two, even suggesting that carotid artery disease may predict the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD).2,3 In fact, some have found that the prevalence of carotid artery stenosis (CAS) in those undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) may be as high as 8-14%.4 Despite such co-existence, there remains no clear consensus Guidelines for revascularization in patients with co-existing CAD and CAS.

Association of psoriasis and stroke in end-stage renal disease patients
CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to prior research in the general population, psoriasis in ESRD patients was not associated with the risk of stroke after controlling for various demographic and clinical parameters. Our finding emphasizes the importance of controlling for a variety of factors in population studies examining associations of diseases and risk factors.PMID:37716600 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2023.09.014

We evaluated a multicenter U.S.-based network to obtain clinical characteristics and outcomes of chronic Chagas disease by disease forms. This was a U.S.-based, multicenter, population-based, retrospective cohort study. We queried TriNetX, a global research network, to identify patients with dual-positive IgG serology for Trypanosoma cruzi. We captured outcomes of interest for up to 5 years.
