A Population-Based Cohort Study on Chronic Comorbidity Risk Factors for Adverse Dengue Outcomes
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2021 Sep 27:tpmd210716. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.21-0716. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe global burden of dengue is increasing against a background of rising global prevalence of chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) and an epidemiological shift of dengue toward older age groups. The contribution of NCDs toward risk for adverse clinical and healthcare utilization outcomes was assessed in a national linked-database study. About 51,433 adult dengue cases between 2014 and 2015 were assessed for outpatient and inpatient claims data in Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database for the 30 days after ...

The Triangulation WIthin a STudy (TWIST) framework for causal inference within pharmacogenetic research
by Jack Bowden, Luke Pilling, Deniz T ürkmen, Chia-Ling Kuo, David Melzer In this paper we review the methodological underpinnings of the general pharmacogenetic approach for uncovering genetically-driven treatment effect heterogeneity. This typically utilises only individuals who are treated and relies on fairly strong baseline assumptions to estimate what we term the ‘genetically moderated treatment effect’ (GMTE). When these assumptions are seriously violated, we show that a robust but less efficient estimate of the GMTE that incorporates information on the population of untreated individuals can instead be used. ...

Migraine with Visual aura and the Risk of Stroke- a Narrative Review
Patients with migraine with visual aura (MwvA) often present to eye care providers for evaluation. A thorough ophthalmological history and examination is needed to exclude ophthalmologic disorders. Additionally, it has been increasingly recognized that MwvA is associated with ischemic stroke (IS). The aim of this narrative review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the differential diagnosis of MwvA and its association with IS.

Telmisartan use and risk of dementia in type 2 diabetes patients with hypertension: A population-based cohort study
by Chi-Hung Liu, Pi-Shan Sung, Yan-Rong Li, Wen-Kuan Huang, Tay-Wey Lee, Chin-Chang Huang, Tsong-Hai Lee, Tien-Hsing Chen, Yi-Chia Wei BackgroundAngiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) may have protective effects against dementia occurrence in patients with hypertension (HTN). However, whether telmisartan, an ARB with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ)–modulating effects, has additional benefits compared to other ARBs remains unclear. Methods and findingsBetween 1997 and 2013, 2,166,944 type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients were identified from the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwa...

Kinematic descriptions of upper limb function using simulated tasks in activities of daily living after stroke
Hum Mov Sci. 2021 Jul 10;79:102834. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2021.102834. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAssessment of upper limb function poststroke is critical for clinical management and determining the efficacy of interventions. We designed a unilateral upper limb task to simulate activities of daily living to examine how chronic stroke survivors manage reaching, grasping and handling skills simultaneously to perform the functional task using kinematic analysis. The aim of the study was to compare the motor strategies for performing a functional task between paretic and nonparetic arms. Sixteen chronic stroke survivors were...

Association of traditional complementary and alternate medicine usage with quality of life of diabetic patients in a Malaysian tertiary hospital
This study aims to design to assess the traditional, complementary and alternate medicine (TCAM) usage and its association with the quality of life (QOL) of Type 2 diabetic patients in a tertiary hospital (Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia) in Malaysia. A total of 300 respondents included in this study were divided into the following two major categories: TCAM (34.33% of respondents) and non-TCAM users (65.67% of the respondents), respectively. The mean ages of the respondents were 59.3 ± 10.2 for the TCAM users and 57.7 ± 12.0 for the non-TCAM users. A greater percentage of non-TCAM users reported poor co...

Augmented efficacy of intermittent theta burst stimulation on the virtual reality-based cycling training for upper limb function in patients with stroke: a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial
Virtual reality and arm cycling have been reported as effective treatments for improving upper limb motor recovery in patients with stroke. Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can increase ipsilesional...

Association of ADH1B polymorphism and alcohol consumption with increased risk of intracerebral hemorrhagic stroke
Alcohol consumption is one of the modifiable risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage, which accounts for approximately 10 –20% of all strokes worldwide. We evaluated the association of stroke with genetic pol...

Cerebral venous thrombosis following COVID-19 vaccination
We appreciate the literature review by Abdalkader et al.1 to summarize the clinical epidemiology and features of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Based on the meta-analysis performed by Baldini et al.,2 the estimated proportion of CVT cases among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was 0.08%; therefore, it is not surprising that COVID-19 associated CVT had not been given much attention compared to the more common deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism events in this patient population.
