Risk of Cerebro-Cardiovascular Diseases among Police Officers and Firefighters: A Nationwide Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that both police officers and firefighters are at high risk of cerebro-cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, medical protection measures for these occupational groups should be improved.PMID:35619583 | PMC:PMC9171666 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2022.63.6.585

Emergency Medical Services Prenotification is Associated with Reduced Odds of In-Hospital Mortality in Stroke Patients
Conclusions: Prenotification by EMS was associated with reduced in-hospital mortality for patients with ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack. These findings add to the large body of literature demonstrating the key role of EMS in the stroke systems of care. Our study underscores the importance of standardizing prehospital screening and triage, increasing rates of prenotification via feedback and education, and encouraging active collaborations between prehospital personnel and stroke-capable hospitals to increase in-hospital survival among patients with stroke and transient ischemic attack.PMID:35583481 | DOI:10.1...

Understanding the relationship between perceived discrimination and mortality in United States adults
CONCLUSIONS: Adults experiencing lifetime and daily discrimination had significantly increased risk of mortality after adjusting for predisposing, enabling, and need factors. The findings highlight the importance of screening patients during clinical encounters for experiences of discrimination and providing appropriate resources to mitigate the negative impact of discriminatory events on mortality. Future research should work to fully understand the mechanism by which discrimination increases risk of mortality. These future findings should be used to develop targets for interventions designed to decrease mortality among a...
