Cardiovascular outcomes and mortality after incident ischaemic stroke in patients with a recent cancer history
CONCLUSIONS: After incident ischaemic stroke, patients with recent cancer history have a lower risk of composite MACE and recurrent stroke outcomes but a higher risk of all-cause mortality when compared with patients without a prior history of cancer.PMID:36549951 | DOI:10.1016/j.ejim.2022.12.006

Abnormal ankle-brachial index (ABI) predicts primary and secondary cardiovascular risk and cancer mortality.
CONCLUSIONS: The co-existence of abnormal ABI and a history of CV events identifies subjects at higher risk, who call for a more aggressive approach. Abnormal ABI is also a predictor of cancer mortality. PMID: 32151490 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

An investigation of multimorbidity measures as risk factors for pneumonia in elderly frail patients admitted to hospital.
CONCLUSIONS: In a small cohort of elderly frail hospitalized patients, measures of multimorbidity, like CIRS, are significantly associated with the risk of pneumonia. COPD and dementia are the main conditions concurring to define this risk. PMID: 26686926 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Atrial fibrillation, CHA2DS2-VASc score, antithrombotics and risk of non-traffic-, non-cancer-related bone fractures: A population-based cohort study.
CONCLUSION: Patients with AF are more vulnerable to non-traffic-, non-cancer-related bone fractures especially when with specified characteristics. For those with higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores, the use of anticoagulant but not antiplatelet agents could be associated with lower risk of such events. PMID: 26493861 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Pre-existing diabetes and risks of morbidity and mortality after liver transplantation: A nationwide database study in an Asian population.
CONCLUSION: DM is associated with elevated risk of 90-day post-LTx. Moreover, DM patients with coexisting renal manifestations exhibited an increased postoperative risk of mortality after LTx. PMID: 26048000 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Chronic conditions, disability, and quality of life in older adults with multimorbidity in Spain.
CONCLUSION: The presence of disability and diverse chronic conditions has a negative effect on QoL of older adults affected by multimorbidity in Spain. Public health and primary care interventions focusing on the integrated care of older adults with multimorbidity might give special attention to mental health and osteoarticular conditions.
