Single Versus Multiarterial Grafts for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: Analysis of Recent Data
ACCORDING TO THE Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are 37.3 million people with diabetes mellitus (DM) in the United States.1 The main cause of death for patients with DM, types 1 and 2, is coronary artery disease (CAD), with a 2- to 4-fold increased risk of mortality for heart disease.2 The trend of increased morbidity and mortality in patients with DM is likely due to its more complex and diffuse CAD pattern.3 Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains the gold standard compared to percutaneous coronary intervention for CAD in patients with DM, with reductions in mortality, myocardial infarction, and ...

Race, ethnicity, sex, and socioeconomic disparities in anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation: A narrative review of contemporary literature
J Natl Med Assoc. 2023 Mar 5:S0027-9684(23)00034-2. doi: 10.1016/j.jnma.2023.02.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia in the United States and is responsible for 1 in 7 ischemic strokes. While anticoagulation is effective at preventing strokes, prior work has highlighted significant disparities in anticoagulation prescribing. Furthermore, racial, ethnic, sex, and socioeconomic disparities in AF outcomes have been described. As such, we aimed to review recent data on disparities with respect to anticoagulation for AF published between January 2018 and February 2021. The...

Association of pneumococcal vaccination with cardiovascular diseases in older adults: The vaccine effectiveness, networking, and universal safety (VENUS) study
This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of PPSV23 on cardiovascular events in adults aged ≥ 65 years. This population-based nested case-control study was conducted using the claims data and vaccine records between April 2015 and March 2020 from the Vaccine Effectiveness, Networking, and Universal Safety (VENUS) Study. PPSV23 vaccination was identified using vaccination records in each municipality. The primary outcome was acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or stroke. The adjusted odds ratios (aORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for PPSV23 vaccination were calculated using conditional logistic regressio...
