This study examines differences in the prevalence of stroke risk factors between Black and White adults aged 18-34, 35-54, and 55-64 years hospitalized for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) between 2016 and 2020.Methods:The In 2020, the prevalence of hypertension was higher among NHBA compared to NHWA aged 18-34 years (55.3%
In this study, we aim to analyze the MHO trends and outcomes with respect to Stroke.Methods:We queried the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2019) to identify Stroke hospitalizations in the elderly population (%E2%89%A565 years) with vs without MHO by using ICD-10 codes after excluding patients with Hypertension, analyze, and Diabetes Mellitus.
Introduction:The paucity of large-scale data exploring the effect of prior bariatric surgery on recurrent stroke outcomes in elderly obese stroke survivors led us to address the gap, with an emphasis on the risk of recurrent stroke and its trends.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted using National Inpatient Sample data from 2016-2019.
We aimed to examine the incidence of and risk factors for cardiotoxicity in a racially and ethnically diverse cohort with cancer treated with anthracyclines.MethodsWe included consecutive adult patients who underwent anthracyclinebased chemotherapy from 2016 to 2019 for any type of cancer. ResultsA total of 743 individuals were included (28.0%
x) from 2016‐2019. The rate of 30‐day readmission was overall stable (7.34% in 2016 and 7.70% in 2019; p=0.42), but the 90‐day readmission rate slightly increased from 11.69% in 2016 to 12.47% in 2019 (p=0.04). ConclusionThe annual rate of 90‐day readmission, but not 30‐day readmission, increased from 2016 to 2019.
This study aimed to identify potentially modifiable factors for better stroke treatment and prevention in minority populations.Methods:Young patients aged 18-50 years who were admitted with ischemic stroke during 09/2016-12/2022 were retrospectively identified and stratified as non-Hispanic White (WH), non-Hispanic Black (BL), and Hispanic (HS).
This study evaluates the outcomes in patients admitted for HF with and without hyperkalemia.Methods:We used the Nationwide Readmissions Database (NRD) from 2016-2019, extracting adult patients with a primary diagnosis of HF who were admitted between January and November of each year. Survey procedures were applied using SAS 9.4.Results:We
We fit multivariable logistic regression models to evaluate the association between the history of migraine and the development of MAVE (stroke, acute coronary syndrome, systemic thromboembolism, hypertensive encephalopathy, pulmonary heart disease, or death) up to 24 weeks after delivery.
Between 2016 and 2018, 3285 MESA participants from 6 field centers underwent comprehensive speckle-tracking echocardiography with passive leg raise maneuver, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire, 6-minute walk test, arterial stiffness assessment, and proteomics (including NT-proBNP [N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide]).Results:Median
we analyzed patients presenting from 2016 to 2021 with an initial diagnosis of stroke, defined by ICD-10 codes in any diagnostic position as abstracted from free text responses by ED staff. We therefore used population-level data to report the frequency of cardiac troponin assessments among U.S. 32.2%) had troponin tested in the ED.
There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heart disease, heart failure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. [1] I think we live in a very exciting time right now for those who work in diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
The same is true of uncontrolled diabetes or high blood pressure. Type 2 diabetes is one of the most significant risk factors for heart disease but also has very high levels of heritability. If one parent has type 2 diabetes, the probability of one of their children having it also is about 40%. 2016 Dec 15;375(24):2349-2358.
Patients with a high risk of metabolic syndrome (>= 2 of the following: hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, or obesity) have a higher risk of AIS (1.37, 1.13 - 1.65), AMI (1.81, 1.19 - 2.75), and MACE (1.28, 1.13 - 1.44).Conclusions:Developing Results:Among 10,652 ICH patients (median age [IQR]: 70 [58 - 80] years; 47.7%
link] A 62 year old man with a history of hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and carotid artery stenosis called 911 at 9:30 in the morning with complaint of chest pain. This is written by Willy Frick, an amazing cardiology fellow in St. He described it as "10/10" intensity, radiating across his chest from right to left.
admitted from 2016‐2019 using the Nationwide Readmission Database (NRD). Data was weighted to allow for representative nationwide estimates.ResultsWe identified 1,398 patients admitted with a primary diagnosis of PACNS between 2016 and 2019. The primary diagnosis of the readmission was used to identify the etiology of readmission.
This study explores whether midlife vascular risk factors are associated with risk of PDD in the community-based ARIC cohort.Methods:ARIC participants were evaluated for vascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, smoking, and obesity) in 1987-1989 (ages 44-64) and followed through 2016.
This study aims to address this gap by examining the association between MA and 90-day AIS readmission.Methods:Using the National Readmission Database between 2016 and 2019, we identified patients admitted with a principal or non-principal diagnosis of migraine. Within 90 days, 411,850 (0.39%) patients had a subsequent admission for AIS.
Age, sex, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and use of thromobolytics were considered as covariates.ResultsWe identified total of 1990 hospitalizations meeting the study inclusion criteria (mean age: 67 years ± standard deviation:12 years, female 612 (31%).
While it is generally held that faster reperfusion is associated with better patient outcomes, the magnitude of benefit in achieving the goal of DTD </= 90 has not been systematically studied.Methods:This is a retrospective analysis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients from a multi-state stroke registry between January 2016 through March (..)
Characteristics associated with intracranial stent utilization were male sex, history of diabetes, hypertension, or chronic kidney disease, absence of atrial fibrillation or CHF, and southern US region. Patient- and hospital-level characteristics were analyzed. women; mean age, 69.1 [SD, years; mean NIHSS score of 15.1 [SD,
Methods:Data on the prevalence of stroke risk factors and medication use were taken from our general population random-digit dial survey conducted during 6 time periods: 1995, 2000, 2005, 2011, 2016, and 2021. All preventive medications (anti-hypertensives, lipid-lowering, aspirin, and AC) assessed increased over time (Figure 2).
