Effects of weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy on left ventricular myocardial work in obese patients

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

BackgroundObesity is a global epidemic and a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is an effective bariatric surgery, but its effect on cardiac functions remains unclear.

Abstract 4148106: Hemophilia and Cardiovascular disease in the United States: Prevalence, Risk factors, and outcomes.

Circulation

Owing to improved management, the life expectancy of patients with hemophilia has increased significantly and predisposes them to risk of cardiovascular diseases and thrombotic events. The primary outcome was to estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients with hemophilia compared to the general population.

Abstract 133: Associations of Genetically Predicted Iron Status and Ischemic Stroke Subtypes: A Mendelian Randomization Study

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A133-A133, February 1, 2024. Mendelian randomization (MR) studies suggest a causal effect of Fe status on ischemic stroke (IS). 0.96]), or BMI (TSAT: 1.18 [1.04-1.34]; Higher Fe status is associated with a greater risk of CES independent of CVD risk factors.

Abstract TP270: Development and Validation of a Nomogram Model for Predicting Early Neurological Deterioration in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients Treated With Intravenous Thrombolysis

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATP270-ATP270, February 1, 2024. Objective:A proportion of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients suffer from early neurological deterioration (END) within 24 hours following intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), which greatly increases the risk of poor prognosis of these patients.

Abstract TMP26: Density of Physical Activity Resources is Associated With Post-Stroke Physical Activity

Stroke Journal

Stroke, Volume 55, Issue Suppl_1 , Page ATMP26-ATMP26, February 1, 2024. Background:Exercise post-stroke can improve health-related quality of life and promote physical fitness, walking, and balance. This study demonstrates the potentially important role of the physical and built environment on physical fitness post-stroke.
