Sex differences in stroke mortality in Thailand  : A National cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Compared to men, women were older at time of stroke-diagnosis and had higher burden of stroke risk-factors. Women also had higher mortality after stroke regardless of stroke-type or duration since stroke-onset. Post-IS, excess stroke-mortality in women was greatest during the in-hospital period, whereas excess stroke-mortality increased with time in women who had HS. No clear relationship was found between duration since stroke-onset and mortality in patients who had SUT.PMID:36435621 | DOI:10.1016/j.ancard.2022.11.003

Impact of heart failure on stroke mortality and recurrence
Conclusions HF increases the risk of mortality in both AIS and ICH. We are the first to report on high-risk periods of stroke recurrence in patients with HF with ICH. Specific targeted risk reduction strategies may have significant clinical impact for mortality and recurrence in stroke.

Oral anticoagulation and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease in Asian Population,Data from the COOL-AF Thailand registry
Patients with AF and chronic kidney disease(CKD) encountered increased risks of stroke, bleeding, morbidity, and overall mortality. Oral anticoagulation in these populations definitely enhances major bleeding but the benefit of stroke reduction remained inconclusive.The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of oral anticoagulation (OAC) on the 2-year cardiovascular outcomes in patients with AF and CKD .

Trends in optimal medical therapy at discharge and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome in Thailand.
CONCLUSIONS: The five-drugs comprising OMT were associated with a reduction in all-cause mortality and MACE in patients with ACS. Nevertheless, OMT prescribing remains underused and could be enhanced in the real-world setting. PMID: 33455848 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

A journey through clinic and research
I started to study Medicine at the University of Genoa, Italy more than 20 years ago and I now realize that I was quite far from understanding what ‘Medicine’ really means. After weeks and weeks spent on books during the first year, I understood that becoming a MD not only requires the willingness to help people with health problems, but also strong motivation and dedication to learn a huge amount of notions. In Italy, as it is the case for several other countries, the University courses last 6 years, during which the MD student is fully engaged by individual study, lessons and seminars, exercises, and internships.

Cardiovascular outcomes of early versus delayed coronary intervention in low to intermediate-risk patients with STEMI in Thailand: a randomised trial
Conclusions The delayed coronary intervention (>24 hours) in low to intermediate STEMI after successful therapy with SK did not increase in short and long-term cardiovascular events compared with an early coronary intervention. Trial registration number NCT02131103.

Effect of Beta-Blocker on Long-Term Major Cardiovascular Events in High Atherosclerotic Risk Population
ConclusionIn patients with high atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk, taking beta-blockers had a higher risk of 3P-MACEs. Care should be taken when prescribing beta-blockers to patients without a clear indication.Trial registrationTCTR20130520001 registered in Thai Clinical Trials Registry (TCTR)https://www.thaiclinicaltrials.org/, date of registration 20 May 2013.
