Carotid total plaque area as an independent predictor of short-term subclinical polyvascular atherosclerosis progression and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events
CONCLUSION: In patients from 40 to 64 years of age with various cardiovascular risks, among the indicators of the cPB, only an increase in cTPA > 42.0 mm2 was shown to be independently associated with an increase in the relative risk (RR) of progression of subclinical polyvascular atherosclerosis by 2.38 (1.08-5.25) times, as well as with the development of MACCE by 3.10 (1.54-6.26) times.PMID:37655749 | DOI:10.1177/17539447231194861

Lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D is associated with severer white matter hyperintensity and cognitive function in patients with non-disabling ischemic cerebrovascular events
Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is the second most common type of cognitive impairment, referring to the entire spectrum of cognitive impairment contributed by cerebrovascular pathology1. Due to the progressively higher incidence of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases, VCI, including post-stroke cognitive impairment are the leading causes of disability epidemic worldwide2-3. White matter lesions, manifested as white matter hyperintensities (WMH) on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, are one of the most common pathological characteristics of VCI4.

Na ïve bayes classifier assisted automated detection of cerebral microbleeds in SWI brain images
Biochem Cell Biol. 2023 Aug 28. doi: 10.1139/bcb-2023-0156. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCerebral Microbleeds (CMBs) in the brain are the essential indicators of critical brain disorders such as dementia and ischemic stroke. Generally, CMBs are detected manually by experts which is an exhaustive task with limited productivity. Since, CMBs have complex morphological nature, so manual detection is prone to errors. This paper presents a machine learning-based automated Cerebral Microbleeds detection technique in the brain SWI scans based on statistical feature extraction and classification. The proposed method consists of th...

Cerebral Microbleed Patterns and Cortical Amyloid- β: The ARIC-PET Study
CONCLUSIONS: In this community-based cohort of nondemented adults, lobar-only pattern of CMBs or superficial siderosis is most strongly associated with brain Aβ, with no elevated risk for a mixed CMB pattern. Further studies are needed to understand differences in CMB patterns and their meaning across subgroups.PMID:37638398 | DOI:10.1161/STROKEAHA.123.042835

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

Imaging Carotid Plaque Inflammation Using Positron Emission Tomography: Emerging Role in Clinical Stroke Care, Research Applications, and Future Directions
Cells. 2023 Aug 15;12(16):2073. doi: 10.3390/cells12162073.ABSTRACTAtherosclerosis is a chronic systemic inflammatory condition of the vasculature and a leading cause of stroke. Luminal stenosis severity is an important factor in determining vascular risk. Conventional imaging modalities, such as angiography or duplex ultrasonography, are used to quantify stenosis severity and inform clinical care but provide limited information on plaque biology. Inflammatory processes are central to atherosclerotic plaque progression and destabilization. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is a validated techn...

Improve Your Memory A Whopping 27%
Traditional doctors think the best way to treat memory loss is with Big Pharma’s latest “breakthrough” drug. And when it’s proven not to work – not to mention dangerous – they simply pull another one out of their pocket…
That’s why I’m so concerned about the media buzz surrounding Lecanemab, one of the latest FDA-approved Alzheimer’s drug.
Because I want to be clear: It is NOT a wonder drug.
Lecanemab is a pharmaceutical product that, in clinical trials, resulted in a slight decline in cases of early Alzheimer’s when compared to a placebo. But…it was also associated with a long list of extremel...

Decreasing national trends in diabetic complications hide regional differences: a prospective population-based study using health care registers in Finland
Conclusions. The decrease in the incidence of first cardiovascular events among patients with diabetes continued from 2010 to 2017 in Finland. However, the declining national incidence rates hide regional differences which should be a target for improvement.PMID:37614115 | DOI:10.1080/14017431.2023.2247190
