Determinants of Incident Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Events Among Those With Absent Coronary Artery Calcium: Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis
Conclusions: Current cigarette smoking, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension are independently associated with incident ASCVD over 16-year follow-up among those with CAC=0. Family history of premature ASCVD may be associated with ASCVD risk among women only.PMID:34879218 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056705

Height is Inversely Associated with Biomarkers of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease in Older Adults of Amerindian Ancestry: Exploring the Obesity Paradox
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates a robust inverse association between height and ICAD in Amerindians and opens new avenues of research for a better understanding of the obesity paradox in diverse ethnic groups.PMID:34865967 | DOI:10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2021.106200

Olive oil consumption is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Olive oil is associated with lower risk of CVD and stroke. The maximum benefit could be obtained with a consumption between 20 and 30 g/day. The association could be stronger for virgin olive oil and might operate from the early stages of the disease.PMID:34872046 | DOI:10.1016/j.clnu.2021.11.002

Effect of Amlodipine in Stroke and Myocardial infarction: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionIn the pooled analysis of data from 12 randomised controlled trials and one double-blinded cohort study measuring the effect of CCBs, we found that the CCB amlodipine reduced the risk of stroke and MI in hypertensive patients. Superior results for amlodipine were found in ten of the 13 studies included in this meta-analysis.

The Current Role of Clevidipine in the Management of Hypertension
AbstractAcute hypertension, which may damage blood vessels, causes irreversible organ damage to the vasculature, central nervous system, kidney, and heart. Clevidipine, the first third-generation calcium channel antagonist approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the past 20 years, is an ultra-short-acting calcium channel blocker that inhibits L-type calcium channels with high clearance and low distribution, can be rapidly metabolized into the corresponding inactive acid, and is rapidly hydrolyzed into inactive metabolites by esterase in arterial blood. Clevidipine is the same as nicardipine in that the main p...

Using Thoracic Artery Calcium Score to Predict Stroke
We are very enthused about the concept presented by Obisesan et al.1 regarding the use of thoracic artery calcium (TAC) as a predictor of stroke mortality. The logic on why aortic atherosclerosis is more closely related (to stroke mortality) than coronary artery calcification (CAC) scores is intriguing – we initially expected it to run in parallel but the explanation they give makes good sense. We also really appreciate the practicality – that it can be done easily with the data already acquired.

Association of global cardiac calcification with atrial fibrillation and recurrent stroke in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source
This study aims to evaluate the association of various cardiac calcification scores with new-onset AF and stroke recurrence in a cohort of patients with ESUS.

Serum calcium and long-term outcomes after ischemic stroke: Results from the China National Stroke Registry III
Serum calcium abnormality is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, but the effects of serum calcium level on stroke outcomes remain unknown. We aimed to assess the relationship between serum calcium level and 1-year outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack.

Thoracic Aortic Calcium For The Prediction Of Stroke Mortality (From The Coronary Artery Calcium Consortium)
Thoracic aortic calcium(TAC) is an important marker of extra-coronary atherosclerosis with established predictive value for all-cause mortality. We sought to explore the predictive value of TAC for stroke mortality, independent of the more established coronary artery calcium(CAC) score. The CAC Consortium is a retrospectively assembled database of 66,636 patients aged ≥18 years with no prior history of cardiovascular disease, baseline CAC scans for risk stratification, and follow-up for 12±4 years.

Coronary Calcium Score and Stratification of Coronary Artery Disease Risk in Patients with Atherosclerotic and Non-Atherosclerotic Ischemic Stroke
Conclusion Atherosclerotic IS did not present a greater risk of CAD when compared to non-atherosclerotic IS according to CCS. Only age ≥ 60 years, but not etiology, was independently associated with CCS ≥ 100.
