Medicare Patients with Symptomatic Carotid Disease Requiring Carotid Revascularization Are Likely to Have Delayed Access: An Analysis of a Multicenter Surgical Data
The Society for Vascular Surgery clinical practice guidelines for management of extracranial cerebrovascular disease recommends carotid revascularization as soon as the patient is neurologically stable after 48  hours and before 14 days of symptom onset in patients with recent stroke. In the United States, insurance status has been demonstrated to play a role in wait times for surgical care. There are no large-scale studies that assess the effect of patient primary insurance status on time to surgery in patients with symptomatic carotid disease.

Risk for Bleeding-Related Hospitalizations During Use of Amiodarone With Apixaban or Rivaroxaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation : A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: In this retrospective cohort study, patients aged 65 years or older with atrial fibrillation treated with amiodarone during apixaban or rivaroxaban use had greater risk for bleeding-related hospitalizations than those treated with flecainide or sotalol.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.PMID:37216662 | DOI:10.7326/M22-3238

Shorter Door-to-Needle Times Are Associated With Better Outcomes After Intravenous Thrombolytic Therapy and Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Among older patients with stroke treated with either IVT only or IVT+EVT, shorter DTN times are associated with better long-term functional outcomes and lower mortality. These findings support further efforts to accelerate thrombolytic administration in all eligible patients, including EVT candidates.PMID:37199147 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.064053

Primary Occurrence of Cardiovascular Events After Adding Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors or Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists Compared With Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors: A Cohort Study in Veterans With Diabetes
CONCLUSION: The addition of GLP1RA was associated with primary reductions of MACE and HF hospitalization compared with DPP4i use; SGLT2i addition was not associated with primary MACE prevention.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: VA Clinical Science Research and Development and supported in part by the Centers for Diabetes Translation Research.PMID:37155984 | DOI:10.7326/M22-2751

Economic Outcomes of Transcatheter Versus Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis and Low Surgical Risk: Results from the PARTNER 3 Trial
CONCLUSIONS: For patients with severe aortic stenosis and low surgical risk similar to those enrolled in the PARTNER 3 trial, transfemoral TAVR with the SAPIEN 3 valve is cost saving compared with SAVR at 2 years and is projected to be economically attractive in the long run as long as there are no substantial differences in late death between the 2 strategies. Long-term follow-up will be critical to ultimately determine the preferred treatment strategy for low-risk patients from both a clinical and economic perspective.PMID:37154049 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062481
