Urgent surgery compared with fibrinolytic therapy for the treatment of left-sided prosthetic heart valve thrombosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies
Conclusion Urgent surgery was not superior to FT at restoring valve function, but substantially reduced the occurrence of thrombo-embolic events, major bleeding, and recurrent PVT. In experienced centres, urgent surgery should probably be preferred over FT for treating left-sided PVT, pending the results of randomized controlled trials.

Stroke and coronary heart disease: predictive power of standard risk factors into old age--long-term cumulative risk study among men in Gothenburg, Sweden
Conclusion The prediction of traditional risk factors (systolic blood pressure, total serum cholesterol, and smoking status) on short-term risk (0–10 years) and long-term risk (0–35 years) of CHD of stroke differs substantially. This indicates that the cumulative risk in middle-aged men based on these traditional risk factors can effectively be used to predict CHD but not stroke to the same extent.
