Long-term Incidence of Ischemic Stroke Following Transient Ischemic Attack: A Nationwide Study During 2014-2020
Conclusions: Patients with first-time TIA had an ischemic stroke incidence of 6.1% during the 5-year follow-up period. Following adjustment for relevant comorbidities, this incidence was approximately five-fold higher than what was found for controls in the background population, and 40% lower than for patients with recurrent ischemic stroke.PMID:37622531 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.065446

Low-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Is Predominantly Associated With Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Events in Patients With Evidence of Coronary Atherosclerosis: The Western Denmark Heart Registry
CONCLUSIONS: LDL-C appears to be almost exclusively associated with ASCVD events over ≈5 years of follow-up in middle-aged individuals with versus without evidence of coronary atherosclerosis. This information is valuable for individualized risk assessment among middle-aged people with or without coronary atherosclerosis.PMID:36621817 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.061010

Percutaneous Transvalvular Microaxial Flow Pump Support in Cardiology
Circulation. 2022 Apr 19;145(16):1254-1284. doi: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.058229. Epub 2022 Apr 18.ABSTRACTThe Impella device (Impella, Abiomed, Danvers, MA) is a percutaneous transvalvular microaxial flow pump that is currently used for (1) cardiogenic shock, (2) left ventricular unloading (combination of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and Impella concept), (3) high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions, (4) ablation of ventricular tachycardia, and (5) treatment of right ventricular failure. Impella-assisted forward blood flow increased mean arterial pressure and cardiac output, peripheral tissue pe...

Temporal Changes in Secondary Prevention and Cardiovascular Outcomes after Revascularization for Peripheral Arterial Disease in Denmark: A Nationwide Cohort Study.
Conclusions: Medical prevention of adverse events has increased considerably over time in patients that underwent revascularization for symptomatic PAD. This increase was accompanied by reductions in all adverse outcomes, except major amputations. PMID: 33300375 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Female Sex Is a Risk Modifier Rather Than a Risk Factor for Stroke in Atrial Fibrillation: Should We Use a CHA2DS2-VA Score Rather Than CHA2DS2-VASc?
CONCLUSIONS: Female sex is a risk modifier for stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Initial decisions on oral anticoagulant treatment could be guided by a CHA2DS2-VA score (ie, excluding the sex category criterion), but the Sc risk component modifies and accentuates stroke risk in women who would have been eligible for oral anticoagulant treatment on the basis of ≥2 additional stroke risk factors.

Higher Risk of Vascular Dementia in Myocardial Infarction Survivors.
Conclusions -MI was associated with higher risk of vascular dementia throughout follow-up and this asssociation was stronger in patients suffering stroke. The risk of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias was not higher in MI patients. PMID: 29025764 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
