v As cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to rise globally, vi the need for advanced diagnostic technologies like cardiac CT angiography (CCTA) becomes increasingly critical. CCTA offers a non-invasive, cost-effective, and highly sensitive method for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD), making it a valuable tool for clinicians.

Patients who received thrombolysis and subsequently underwent endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke between 2012 and 2022 were included. Patients were separated into two groups depending on whether or not rescue angioplasty or stenting was performed. Median NIHSS on admission was lower in the tandem occlusion group (15 vs 18, 0.02).

Methods Data were extracted from the Nationwide Readmissions Database from 2012 to 2017. Coronary artery disease was the most significant predictor of readmission in patients with diabetes. We aimed to examine the impact of diabetes on 30-day mortality, 30-day readmission and compare outcomes between TAVR and sAVR.
