We assessed 239 consecutive patients aged 65 years or older with stable CAD who underwent successful elective PCI at Kagoshima City Hospital between January 1st, 2017 and December 31st, 2020. Frailty was retrospectively assessed using the Canadian...

Poststroke venous thromboembolism and neutrophil activation: an illustrated review
Res Pract Thromb Haemost. 2023 Apr 29;7(4):100170. doi: 10.1016/j.rpth.2023.100170. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTPatients with acute ischemic stroke are at a high risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), estimated to affect approximately 80,000 patients with stroke each year in the United States. The prevalence of symptomatic DVT after acute stroke is approximately 10%. VTE is associated with increased rates of in-hospital death and disability, with higher prevalence of in-hospital complications and increased 1-year mortality in patients with stroke. Current guidelines recommend the use of ...

Short-term effects of individual exposure to PM < sub > 2.5 < /sub > on hospital admissions for myocardial infarction and stroke: a population-based case-crossover study in Guangzhou, China
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Jun 5. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-28058-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSome studies have investigated the effects of PM2.5 on cardiovascular diseases based on the population-average exposure data from several monitoring stations. No one has explored the short-term effect of PM2.5 on cardiovascular hospitalizations using individual-level exposure data. We assessed the short-term effects of individual exposure to PM2.5 on hospitalizations for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke in Guangzhou, China, during 2014-2019. The population-based data on cardio-cerebrovascular events were provided by ...

Cerebral infarction and in-hospital mortality for patients admitted to hospital with intracardiac thrombus: insights from the National Inpatient Sample
Abstract The factors associated with cerebral infarction and mortality in patients hospitalized with intracardiac thrombus are unknown. A retrospective cohort study was undertaken of nationally representative hospital admissions in the National Inpatient Sample with a diagnosis of intracardiac thrombus between 2016 to 2019. Multiple logistic regressions were used to define factors associated with cerebral infarction and in-hospital mortality. There were a total of 175,370 admissions for patients with intracardiac thrombus and 10.1% patients had cerebral infarction (n = 17,675). Intracardiac thrombus represented 4.4%...

Effects of intensive lipid lowering compared with moderate-intensity lipid lowering on coronary atherosclerotic plaque phenotype and major adverse cardiovascular events in adults with low to intermediate 10-year ASCVD risk (ILLUMINATION study): protocol for a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomised controlled trial
Introduction Current guidelines recommend moderate-intensity lipid lowering (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, LDL-C of <2.6 mmol/L or 30%–49% reduction from the baseline) for patients with intermediate 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk. The effects of intensive lipid lowering (LDL-C of <1.8 mmol/L) on coronary atherosclerotic plaque phenotype and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in adults with both non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) and low to intermediate 10-year ASCVD risk remain uncertain. Methods and analysis Intensive Lipid-lowering for Plaque and Major A...
