Genetic Architecture of Ischaemic Strokes after COVID-19 Shows Similarities with Large Vessel Strokes
Int J Mol Sci. 2023 Aug 30;24(17):13452. doi: 10.3390/ijms241713452.ABSTRACTWe aimed to analyse whether patients with ischaemic stroke (IS) occurring within eight days after the onset of COVID-19 (IS-COV) are associated with a specific aetiology of IS. We used SUPERGNOVA to identify genome regions that correlate between the IS-COV cohort (73 IS-COV cases vs. 701 population controls) and different aetiological subtypes. Polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for each subtype were generated and tested in the IS-COV cohort using PRSice-2 and PLINK to find genetic associations. Both analyses used the IS-COV cohort and GWAS from MEGASTRO...

Protective effect of vaccination on the risk of cardiovascular disease after SARS-CoV-2 infection
ConclusionAlthough COVID-19 increased the CVD risk, the inverse association in the risk of CVDs according to vaccine doses was significant in a dose –response manner. Our findings suggest that ≥ second doses of the COVID-19 vaccine prevent the risk of CVDs after SARS-CoV-2 infection.Graphical abstractIn 2,146,130 infected adults ( ≥ 20 years), the inverse association in the short-term risk of cardiovascular diseases, including coronary heart disease and stroke, according to vaccine doses received was significant in a dose–response manner.

Trends in the Longitudinal Utilization of Oral Anticoagulants Among Newly Diagnosed Atrial Fibrillation Patients With Commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid Insurance
Long-term oral anticoagulation (OAC) is recommended for stroke prevention for most patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and elevated stroke risk.1 While trends in initiation of OAC have been described,2,3 long-term trends in utilization of OAC in patients continuously followed for AF have not been adequately explored. Some healthcare systems adapted anticoagulation services to respond to disruptions during the COVID-19 pandemic.4 We thus investigated how OACs were utilized in patients with newly diagnosed AF from 2018 to 2021 across 3 insurance types: Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial.

Position of the Polish Cardiac Society on therapeutic targets for LDL cholesterol concentrations in secondary prevention of myocardial infarctions
Kardiol Pol. 2023 Jul 25. doi: 10.33963/KP.a2023.0162. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiovascular diseases account for 43% of deaths in Poland. The COVID-19 pandemic increased the number of cardiovascular deaths by as much as 16.7%. Lipid metabolism disorders are observed in about 20 million Poles. Lipid disorders are usually asymptomatic, they cause a significant increase in the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Up to 20% of patients who experience an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) may experience a recurrence of a cardiovascular event within a year, and up to 40% of these patients may be re-hospitalized. Within 5 years af...
