The impact of associated diabetic retinopathy on stroke and severe bleeding risk in diabetic patients with atrial fibrillation: The Loire Valley Atrial Fibrillation Project.
ConclusionCrude rates of stroke/TE increased in a stepwise fashion when non-diabetic AF patients were compared to diabetics with no retinopathy and diabetics with retinopathy. However, we have shown for the first time that the presence of diabetic retinopathy did not emerge as an independent predictor for stroke/TE or severe bleeding on multivariate analysis. Background: Diabetes mellitus is recognized as a stroke risk factor in atrial fibrillation (AF). Diabetics with retinopathy have an increased risk of systemic cardiovascular complications, and also, severe diabetic retinopathy predisposes to ocular bleeds. We hyp...

The effects of medications for treating COPD and allied conditions on stroke: a population-based cohort study
This study aimed to investigate the clinical factors of stroke risk in COPD and allied conditions patients and associations between medications for treating COPD and allied conditions. The population-based study cohort comprised 24,173 patients diagnosed with COPD and allied conditions between 2000 and 2013, and 24,170 selected matched patients without COPD comprised the comparison cohort from a nationwide database. Cox-proportional hazard regression was performed to determine the impact of medical therapies, comorbidities, and other clinical factors on stroke risk. Of the 48,343 included patients, 1394 (2.9%) experienced ...

Risk factors for cardiovascular disease in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a population based study.
ConclusionSeveral cardiovascular risk factors were more prevalent in people with IPF; however this did not account for the increased rate of IHD in this group of patients. Rationale & Objective: People with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have been shown to be at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease but reasons for this are unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of common cardiovascular risk factors in people with IPF and the general population and establish the incidence of ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and stroke after the diagnosis of IPF, controlling for these risk factors. ...

Which cardiovascular diseases are most influenced by smoking - a cohort retrospective study
Conclusion: This study suggests that smoking may have a greater impact on the development of stroke (p = 0.012) and HBP (p = 0.025). Smoking also has an impact on the development of AMI, but on a smaller scale (p=0.042). Higher PY values are also influencing the development of CVD (p = 0.035). There was no statistically significant variation between the two groups in the development of DM2.

Study on the predictive ability of emergency CHADS < sub > 2 < /sub > score and CHA < sub > 2 < /sub > DS < sub > 2 < /sub > -VASc score for coronary artery disease and prognosis in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
CONCLUSIONS: Multiple factors jointly affect the severity and prognosis of CAD in patients with acute STEMI. The CHA2DS2-VASc score is better than the CHADS2 score in predicting the severity of coronary artery lesions and prognosis of patients, providing theoretical support for clinical practice.PMID:35928606 | PMC:PMC9344425 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-22-763
