Short-term cardiovascular events after bariatric surgery in patients with metabolic syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with MetS have an increased frequency of cardiac events following bariatric surgery. Future studies should determine if optimization of 1 or more components of MetS or other related co-morbidities reduces the cardiovascular risk for patients.PMID:37659898 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2023.07.009

Medicare Patients with Symptomatic Carotid Disease Requiring Carotid Revascularization Are Likely to Have Delayed Access: An Analysis of a Multicenter Surgical Data
The Society for Vascular Surgery clinical practice guidelines for management of extracranial cerebrovascular disease recommends carotid revascularization as soon as the patient is neurologically stable after 48 hours and before 14 days of symptom onset in patients with recent stroke. In the United States, insurance status has been demonstrated to play a role in wait times for surgical care. There are no large-scale studies that assess the effect of patient primary insurance status on time to surgery in patients with symptomatic carotid disease.

Using a CT Angiography Artificial Intelligence Carotid Plaque Morphology Model to Predict Stroke
The gold standard for determining carotid artery stenosis is to calculate stenosis using the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial criteria and ultimately plan for medical vs surgical management based on percent stenosis and symptomatic status. Few studies have assessed plaque morphology as an additive tool for stroke prediction. Our study uses an artificial intelligence software in conjunction with a patient's computed tomography (CT) scan of the neck to create a three-dimensional (3D) model of the carotid artery and assess plaque morphology including calcification, intraplaque hemorrhage, matrix, and pe...

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

The Impact of Full Collapse on the Risk of Ischaemic Stroke in Patients with Carotid Near Occlusion
Carotid near occlusion (CNO) is a severe carotid stenosis associated with a reduction in the calibre of the extracranial internal carotid artery distal to the stenosis.1 The risk of ipsilateral stroke in patients with CNO is a controversial issue. While a post hoc analysis of the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET) and the European Carotid Surgery Trial (ECST) reported a lower risk of ipsilateral stroke for medically treated patients with CNO compared with patients with severe (70 –99%) carotid stenosis2, more recent studies have shown that the CNO recurrence rate may be higher.

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
Stroke during pregnancy is rare, occurring in 30 of 100,000 pregnancies and accounting for 7% of maternal deaths in the United States from 2016 to 2018. Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) has been shown to reduce symptoms of chronic conditions that are risk factors for stroke, including hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes in women. However, little is known about the impact of MBS on stroke risk during pregnancy.

Management of Venous and Arterial Bullet Emboli
We report one case of venous bullet embolus and one case of arterial bullet embolus, both of which were successfully treated with endovascular retrieval. A thorough physical exam and appropriate imaging are vital to prompt identification and treatment of bullet emboli, as the repercussions of missed injuries can be devastating.PMID:36960753 | DOI:10.1177/00031348231167413

Preoperative Assessment and Optimization of Cardiopulmonary Disease in Noncardiac Surgery
This article details an approach to preoperative interview and examination, indications for preoperative testing, and strategies for optimization in patients with underlying cardiopulmonary disease. It also includes guidelines on optimal timing of elective surgery in certain clinical scenarios that can escalate perioperative risk. Through the use of thorough preoperative assessment, targeted preoperative testing, and multidisciplinary optimization of preexisting disease, perioperative risk can be decreased significantly and perioperative outcomes improved.

Does bariatric surgery change the risk of acute ischemic stroke in patients with a history of transient ischemic attack? A nationwide analysis
CONCLUSIONS: After analyzing nationwide information, we conclude bariatric surgery helps decrease risk of AIS in patients with a history of TIA. However, this comparison is limited by the nature of the database; further studies are needed to better understand these results.PMID:36581552 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2022.11.013
