Palliat Support Care. 2021 May 7:1-10. doi: 10.1017/S1478951520001261. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVES: Previous studies have shown that psychological stress and mental health problems increase the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, such as heart attack or stroke. Furthermore, after CVD events, the majority of patients report large stress. However, psychological treatments have only modest effects in CVD patients. Therefore, it has been argued that new conceptual models are needed to understand the aetiology of stress and mental health problems in CVD patients. Therefore, this study included a systemati...

Perioperative outcomes of goal-directed versus conventional fluid therapy in radical cystectomy with enhanced recovery protocol
ConclusionStroke volume variation guided goal-directed fluid therapy is safe in radical cystectomy without compromising the renal function. It is associated with less intra- and perioperative fluid infusion; however, no association with hospital stay, 90-day complication or readmission rates were noted.

Am J Hosp Palliat Care. 2021 Jun 10:10499091211024222. doi: 10.1177/10499091211024222. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWhen making decisions about goals-of-care for a patient who lacks decision-making capacity, surrogates sometimes have internal disagreements, particularly if there are complicated family dynamics. Here, I describe the evolution of end-of-life discussions for a patient who had a catastrophic stroke amongst a family who had preexisting discord.PMID:34109802 | DOI:10.1177/10499091211024222

Patterns of thromboembolism in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer undergoing 1st-line chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX or Gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel
CONCLUSION: Patients with aPC undergoing palliative 1st-line chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX or GN face a high risk for VTE/ATE and its diagnosis is linked to worse clinical outcomes. VTE-risk prediction models have limited ability to sub-stratify thrombotic events in this high-risk scenario.PMID:34255340 | DOI:10.1055/a-1548-4847

Cancer-Associated Atherothrombosis: The Challenge
Int J Angiol DOI: 10.1055/s-0041-1729920The association between venous thrombosis and malignancy, having typical features of a paraneoplastic syndrome, has been established for a century. Currently, it is recognized that arterial thromboembolism (ATE) may also behave as a paraneoplastic syndrome. Recent matched cohort studies, systematic reviews, and observational studies concur in showing an increased incidence of acute coronary events, ischemic stroke, accelerated peripheral arterial disease, and in-stent thrombosis during the 6-month period before cancer diagnosis, peaking for 30 days immediately before cancer diagnosis...
