IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 11284: Examining Predictors of Myocardial Infarction
This study analyzed predictors of myocardial infarction (MI) for those aged 35 and older based on demographic, socioeconomic, geographic, behavioral, and risk factors, as well as access to healthcare variables using the Center for Disease (CDC) Control Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey for the year 2019. Multiple quasibinomial models were generated on an 80% training set hierarchically and then used to forecast the 20% test set. The final training model proved somewhat capable of prediction with a weighted F1-Score = 0.898. A complete model based on statistically significant variables using the enti...

Sex differences in the risk of coronary heart disease associated with socioeconomic status in Turkey
ConclusionsThis study of health outcomes in Turkey did not find sex differences in CVD in association with educational status but did show sex differences in association with employment status. This finding suggests that social determinants in middle-income countries may affect men and women differently than in high-income countries.Key messagesSocial determinants in middle-income countries may affect men and women differently with regards to the risk of CHD than in high-income countries.Employment status can predict the risk of CHD in middle-income countries.

Sex differences in the associations of socioeconomic status with stroke in the Turkish Population
ConclusionsIn this Turkish population, stroke risk was greater in women than in men. Increasing education was associated with a reduced risk of stroke in Turkish women, whereas the only completion of primary education was protective for men, with no further protection at increased educational levels. Further exploration of sex and gender risk differences in moderate-income countries may lead to improved efforts at risk reduction.Key messagesEducation level as a social determinant of health in middle-income countries may affect men and women differently with regards to the risk of strokeUnderstanding sex differences in the ...

Workforce Attachment after Ischemic Stroke – The Importance of Time to Thrombolytic Therapy
The ability to remain in employment addresses an important consequence of stroke beyond the usual clinical parameters. However, data on the association between time to intravenous thrombolysis and workforce attachment in patients with acute ischemic stroke are sparse.

Poststroke Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors
In the community, major risk factors for depression include sex, advancing age, lower income, employment status, and illnesses such as stroke that result in disability and affect income, employment, and social status. Poststroke depression affects 1 in every 3 patients in the first year after stroke occurrence and thereafter. Important general treatments for depression include the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; these compounds have also been suggested to modulate motor and functional recovery after stroke. The FLAME (Fluoxetine for Motor Recovery After Acute Ischaemic Stroke) trial kindled interest in treatment w...

Time spent outdoors and risk of myocardial infarction and stroke in middle and old aged adults: results from the UK Biobank prospective cohort
CONCLUSION: Findings from the present study indicate that spending more than 3.5 hours/day outdoors is a risk factor for myocardial infarction and stroke. Future research is needed to further understand the relation between time spent outdoors and cardiovascular disease.PMID:34019889 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2021.111350

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic lockdown on occupational therapy practice and use of telerehabilitation - A cross sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: The COVID-19 pandemic lockdown experiences made us rethink the current approach of therapy services into alternative method (mixed mode) delivery of occupational therapy practice, which is including the combined method of video-based (telerehabilitation) consultation and face to face intervention.PMID:34002837 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202105_25845
