External Validation of the HELT-E < sub > 2 < /sub > S < sub > 2 < /sub > Score in Japanese Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation  - A Pooled Analysis of the RAFFINE and SAKURA Registries
CONCLUSIONS: The HELT-E2S2score demonstrated potential value for risk stratification, particularly in a super-aged society such as Japan. However, its superiority over the CHADS2or CHA2DS2-VASc scores may vary across different hospital settings.PMID:37558457 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0318

Age-Related Differences in the Contribution of Systolic Blood Pressure and Biomarkers to Cardiovascular Disease Risk Prediction: The Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study
We sought to determine how biomarkers known to be associated with hypertension-induced end-organ injury complement the use of systolic blood pressure (SBP) for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk prediction at different ages. Using data from visits 2 (1990 to 1992) and 5 (2011 to 2013) of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, 3 models were used to predict CVD (composite of coronary heart disease, stroke, and heart failure). Model A included traditional risk factors (TRFs) except SBP, model B —TRF plus SBP, and model C—TRF plus biomarkers (high-sensitivity troponin T [hsTnT] and N-terminal pro-B-type natri...

Reducing Ischemic Stroke in Diabetes: The Role of GLP-1 RAs
J Fam Pract. 2023 Jul;72(6 Suppl):S55-S60. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0624.ABSTRACTStroke is a significant cause of mortality worldwide, and diabetes is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke occurrence and recurrence. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) lower the risk of ischemic stroke through beneficial effects on traditional stroke risk factors such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Primary care practitioners (PCPs) can play a substantial role in reducing ischemic stroke; studies have indicated that patients who have a PCP at the time of first stroke have a lower risk of stroke recurren...
