Impact of Atrial Fibrillation on Stroke-Related Healthcare Costs Hypertension
Conclusion Stroke-related care for IS, HS, and TIA is costly, especially among individuals with AF. Reducing the risk of AF-related stroke is important from both clinical and economic standpoints.

Blood pressure control and risk profile in poststroke survivors: a comparison with the general population
Conclusion: We found a high prevalence and poor control of major cardiovascular risk factors in patients surviving their first-ever ischemic stroke, thus showing poor implementation of guidelines for secondary prevention in clinical practice.

Economic impact of patients admitted to stroke units in Spain
Conclusions The cost of patients admitted to stroke units in Spain is €27,711 per patient/year. More than two-thirds are social costs, mainly informal care. Stroke remains a major burden on health systems and society, so additional efforts are needed for its prevention.

IJERPH, Vol. 20, Pages 3693: Association of Cardiovascular Disease Risk and Health-Related Behaviors in Stroke Patients
Conclusion: Brain stroke patients had a high probability of developing CVD. For better health among stroke patients, new evidence-based behavior change approaches must be introduced into preventative and management programs.

Cost-Effectiveness of Low-Dose Compared to Standard-Dose Alteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke in China: A Within-Trial Economic Evaluation of the ENCHANTED Study
Conclusions: This health economic evaluation alongside the ENCHANTED indicates that the use of low-dose alteplase does not save overall healthcare costs nor lead to a gain in QALYs in the management of Chinese patients with AIS compared to the use of standard dose. There is little justification on economic grounds to shift from standard-of-care thrombolysis in AIS.Cerebrovasc Dis

Impact of early initiation of antihypertensive medications for patients with hypertension or elevated blood pressure
Conclusion: Initiating antihypertensive medications before experiencing a cardiovascular disease-related clinical event was associated with reduced risk of AMI, stroke and death for all hypertensive patients identified in the new guidelines. However, early treatment had a significantly smaller effect for patients with only ‘elevated’ BP, who experienced just a lower risk of stroke once treated.

Clinical and Economic Outcomes among Elderly Myocardial Infarction Survivors in the United States
ConclusionsRisks of mortality and cardiovascular events remain high in a Medicare population surviving >1 year after a MI. Continuing healthcare costs are doubled over pre‐MI levels up to five years after an MI. Secondary prevention measures beyond the acute post‐MI period may be indicated to reduce risk and cost in this chronic disease phase.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

A Novel Deep Neural Network Model for Multi-Label Chronic Disease Prediction
Conclusions concludes this work along with future work. Dataset and Data Preprocessing In the work, we mainly focus on multiple chronic disease classification. It can be formulated into a multi-label classification problem. There are three common chronic diseases are selected from the physical examination records: hypertension (H), diabetes (D), and fatty liver (FL). In the experiments, the physical examination datasets are collected from a local medical center, which contain 110,300 physical examination records from about 80,000 anonymous patients (Li et al., 2017a,b). Sixty-two feature items are selected from over 100...

Preventable Cases of Oral Anticoagulant-Induced Bleeding: Data From the Spontaneous Reporting System
Conclusion: Our findings describe the most reported risk factors for preventability of oral anticoagulant-induced bleedings. These factors may be useful for targeting interventions to improve pharmacovigilance activities in our regional territory and to reduce the burden of medication errors and inappropriate prescription. Introduction Oral anticoagulant therapy is widely used for the prevention of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation, or for the prevention and treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism (Raj et al., 1994; Monaco et al., 2017). Oral anticoagulants can be di...

Abstract 251: Risk Factors for Recurrence of Cardiovascular Events Following Acute Coronary Syndrome: Longitudinal Analysis from 2006-2011 Poster Session III
Conclusion: Following an ACS event, patients with pre-admission statin use or a prior CABG had decreased risk, while older patients or those with baseline comorbidities had increased risk of an adverse CV event occurring sooner. Ultimately, identifying high-risk ACS subgroups may facilitate tailored and more aggressive treatment to improve outcomes.

New research: Stroke risk and too much sleep; genes that make the body salt-sensitive
(Pollock Communications) High blood pressure, or hypertension, affects one-third of -- or 70 million -- US adults, and the healthcare costs associated with treating the disease are approximately $46 billion. From May 15 - 19, 2015, members of the medical community will gather at the 30th Annual Scientific Meeting of the American Society of Hypertension in NYC to discuss more than 200 new studies, state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and new treatments for hypertension.
