Diabetes mellitus and functional limitations among older adults: Evidence from a large, representative Ghanaian aging study
CONCLUSIONS: In this representative study, older adults with DM showed higher odds for FL, and this association was partially explained by physical activity and health variables. Investing in a holistic management approach might be helpful for public health planning efforts to address DM-induced FL in old age.PMID:37677886 | DOI:10.1016/j.jpsychores.2023.111481

Signal detection of adverse events associated with gabapentinoid use for chronic pain
CONCLUSIONS: Our study identified expected and unexpected ADE signals in GABA users. Neurological signals likely related to indications for GABA use. Signals for immunity, mental/behavior, and skin disorders were found in the FDA adverse event reporting system database. Unexpected signals of stroke and cancer require further confirmatory analyses to verify.PMID:37640024 | DOI:10.1002/pds.5685

End-of-Life Symptoms in Adult Patients With Stroke in the Last Two Years of Life: An Integrative Review
CONCLUSIONS: There is a need for better assessment and management of EOL symptoms in patients with stroke. Established palliative and EOL care guidelines need to be incorporated into clinical practice to ensure access to high-quality care.PMID:37615127 | DOI:10.1177/10499091231197657

Methemoglobin as a marker of acute anemic stress in cardiac surgery
iScience. 2023 Jul 20;26(8):107429. doi: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.107429. eCollection 2023 Aug 18.ABSTRACTBiological evidence supports plasma methemoglobin as a biomarker for anemia-induced tissue hypoxia. In this translational planned substudy of the multinational randomized controlled transfusion thresholds in cardiac surgery (TRICS-III) trial, which included adults undergoing cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass with a moderate-to-high risk of death, we investigated the relationship between perioperative hemoglobin concentration (Hb) and methemoglobin; and evaluated its association with postoperative outcomes. Th...

How do patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus value the importance of outcomes? An overview of reviews
CONCLUSION: We provide standardised, reliable utility values (or associated disutilities) for T2DM, acute, microvascular and macrovascular complications, related comorbidities and treatments that may support judgements when making clinical recommendations, designing decision support tools, and developing interventions and economic analysis.PMID:37516195 | DOI:10.1016/j.jval.2023.07.003

Pediatric Moyamoya Revascularization Perioperative Care: A Modified Delphi Study
ConclusionsIn the absence of data supporting specific care practices before and after indirect revascularization surgery in children with moyamoya, this Delphi process defined areas of consensus among neurosurgeons, neurologists, and intensivists with moyamoya expertise. Research priorities identified include determining the role of continuous electroencephalography in postoperative moyamoya care, optimal perioperative blood pressure and hemoglobin targets, and the role of supplemental oxygen for treatment of suspected postoperative ischemia.

Early versus late injections of Botulinumtoxin type A in post-stroke spastic movement disorder: A literature review
Toxicon. 2023 May 3:107150. doi: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2023.107150. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPost-stroke spastic movement disorder (PS-SMD) is one of the main causes of severe disability in the chronic phase after stroke. The prevalence of SMD rises up with time after stroke to more than 28% in the chronic phase, and its secondary complications such as contracture, abnormal postures and/or movement patterns, spasticity-associated pain, also increases with time after stroke when physical and medical management of PS-SMD had been delayed in the early stroke phase. It has been published by several controlled studies that the...

Measuring Pain in Aphasia: Validity and Reliability of the PACSLAC-D
Post-stroke pain in patients with an inability to communicate is not systematically assessed and therefore not sufficiently treated. This stresses the need to study pain assessment instruments that do not require good communication skills.

Top 20 Research Studies of 2022 for Primary Care Physicians
This article summarizes the top 20 research studies of 2022 identified as POEMs (patient-oriented evidence that matters), excluding COVID-19. Statins for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease produce only a small absolute reduction in a person's likelihood of dying (0.6%), having a myocardial infarction (0.7%), or having a stroke (0.3%) over three to six years. Supplemental vitamin D does not reduce the risk of a fragility fracture, even in people with low baseline vitamin D levels or a previous fracture. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are preferred medical therapy for panic disorder, and patients who disco...
