atrial fibrillation (AF), a heart condition that causes an irregular heartbeat in the upper chambers of the heart, affects up to one in three people in their lifetime. Significant complications associated with this condition include ischemic stroke, heartfailure, myocardialinfarction, chronic kidneydisease, dementia and mortality.
Myocardialinfarction (MI), stroke, peripheral arterial disease (PAD), heartfailure (HF) and chronic kidneydisease (CKD) are common cardiovascular renal diseases (CVRD) manifestations for type 2 diabetes.
Data on major cardiovascular events (MACE; mortality, myocardialinfarction, stroke, heartfailure) through December 2021 were obtained from national registries. Results Among all patients (n = 38,671), 31% had stable CAD, and 69% suffered an acute myocardialinfarction.
BackgroundRecent evidence highlights an increasing incidence of myocardialinfarction in young women. years]) admitted to the China Chest Pain Center Database between 2016 and 2021.
Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. The index date was the first CKD stage 3b/4 diagnosis with 1 hyperkalemia diagnosis and 1 serum potassium >5.0 mmol/L in the preceding 12 months (baseline) for patients with hyperkalemia and a randomly selected CKD stage 3b/4 diagnosis for controls.
Circulation: HeartFailure, Volume 17, Issue 12 , Page e011629, December 1, 2024. Spironolactone, a steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), has been used to treat patients with heartfailure (HF) for more than half a century. The use of MRAs has been limited due to excessive concern about hyperkalemia.
Propensity score-matched analysis (PSM) (1:1) was performed with matching for age, gender, race, BMI, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidneydisease, hemoglobin level, low-density lipid (LDL) level, left ventricular ejection fraction, and various drugs including ACEi, ARBi, ARNI, beta-blockers, and diuretics.
Background:The Trial to Evaluate Cardiovascular and Other Long-term Outcomes with Semaglutide in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes (SUSTAIN-6) trial showed cardiovascular disease (CVD) benefits of semaglutide therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Purpose:To year follow-up time).Results:Among Results:Among 5002 (projected to 34.0
However, researchers said the drug may be helpful in reducing heartfailure risks, including hospitalization, following a heart attack. The study enrolled 6,522 people treated for acute myocardialinfarction at 451 centers in 22 countries.
Objectives Accurate prediction of heartfailure (HF) patients at high risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) represents a potentially valuable tool to inform shared decision making. No validated prediction model for AF in HF is currently available. The objective was to develop clinical prediction models for 1-year risk of AF.
Efficacy and safety of finerenone in patients with chronic kidneydisease and type 2 diabetes by diuretic use: a FIDELITY analysis. a If patients were receiving both types of diuretics at baseline, they were included in both subgroups. Patients were analysed by baseline diuretic use (yes/no) and type of diuretic (loop or thiazide).
Background:Empagliflozin is a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor that improves cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidneydisease and heartfailure. vs 5.4%), and hospitalization for heartfailure (RR 0.66; 95% CI [0.58, 0.76]; P < 0.00001; 3.2%
While composite of death and heartfailure hospitalizations was not significantly reduced, empagliflozin may help reduce heartfailure risks after a heart attack, according to results from the EMPACT-MI trial presented on day one of the American College of Cardiology Scientific Sessions, ACC.24,
The predictive ability of different risk scores developed and validated to predict the risk of mortality in patients with heartfailure in the HELP-HF cohort is reported and compared based on their areas under the curve.
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to assess the impact of anemia and iron deficiency (ID) on clinical outcome in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) complicating acute myocardialinfarction (AMI). Nevertheless, data concerning the impact of anemia and ID on clinical outcome in patients with CS are scarce.
It is highly recommended to screen for liver fibrosis in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and elevated liver enzymes using the fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) score.However, this recommendation does not extend to patients with chronic heartfailure (CHF) who do not have T2DM. 1.45), cardiovascular mortality (HR: 1.80, 95% CI: 1.49-2.17),
To compare the efficacy of SGLT2 inhibitors among non-older and older patients we have searched PubMed, Cochrane Central, and Embase until February 2023 for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating SGLT2 inhibitors in older (age 65 years) patients with diabetes mellitus, chronic kidneydisease, and chronic heartfailure.
He also had a history of chronic kidneydisease, stage III. Angio had shown some acute disease in the saphenous vein graft to the posterior descending artery off of the RCA. Literature on Hypokalemia as a risk for ventricular fibrillation in acute myocardialinfarction. Most recent echo showed EF of 60%.
There are significant data that show that if you have obesity, you have a high risk of developing coronary heartdisease, heartfailure, type 2 diabetes (T2D) or risk factors such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. [1] Is the obesity paradox a real phenomenon?
BACKGROUND:Advanced chronic kidneydisease is associated with high cardiovascular risk, even after kidney transplant. METHODS:We retrospectively followed patients who underwent MPI before kidney transplant for the occurrence of MACE after transplant including myocardialinfarction, stroke, heartfailure, and cardiac death.
Study end points include mortality, cardiovascular events (hospitalization for acute myocardialinfarction or stroke) and limb events (hospitalization for critical limb ischemia or major amputation) and were identified using Veterans Affairs and nonVeterans Affairs encounters.ResultsThe mean age was 70.6 were male, and 18.5%
Higher-predicted risk, compared with lower-predicted risk, was associated with incident chronic kidneydisease (cumulative incidence per 1000 persons at 10 years 245.2; years), heartfailure (124.7; to 8.34; 4.27), myocardialinfarction (69.6; to 5.22; 4.32), peripheral vascular disease (44.6;
AF is associated with an increased risk of death as well as multiple adverse outcomes, including stroke, cognitive impairment or dementia, myocardialinfarction, sudden cardiac death, heartfailure (HF), chronic kidneydisease (CKD), and peripheral artery disease (PAD).
The eGFR estimates were calculated using the Chronic KidneyDisease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation. CVD was defined as a self-reported physician's diagnosis of congestive heartfailure, coronary heartdisease, angina pectoris, myocardialinfarction, or stroke. ml/min/1.73 m².
Additionally, 10% of the global population suffers from chronic kidneydisease , with diabetes and hypertension as significant risk factors. Disparities in care are also concerning, with diagnosed cardiometabolic diseases varying up to twofold among different racial and ethnic groups. In the U.S.,
It could also, given a different clinical context be compatible with a subacute myocardialinfarction complicated by post infarct regional pericarditis. Most common cause) 2 ) Post infarct regional pericarditis. Due to the atypical and vague symptoms, the myocardialinfarct was not initially diagnosed.
