Right-to-Left Shunt in Divers with Neurological Decompression Sickness: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Healthcare, Vol 11, Iss 1407, p 1407 (2023)
Abstract: Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the association between the presence of a right-to-left shunt (RLS) and neurological decompression sickness (NDCS) and asymptomatic brain lesions among otherwise healthy divers. Background: Next to drownin...
Obesity and long‐term outcomes after incident stroke: a prospective population‐based cohort study
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Vol 12, Iss 6, Pp 2111-2121 (2021)
Abstract: Abstract Background The association between obesity, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), and mortality in patients with incident stroke is not well established. We assessed the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and MACE in patients wit...
Major Hemorrhage Risk Associated with Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, Vol 23, Iss 10, p 334 (2022)
Abstract: Background: Real-world, observational studies have investigated the safety profile of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs) on Major Hemorrhage (MH) used for stroke prevention in Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (NVAF). We performed a systematic review an...
Anticoagulant selection in relation to the SAMe-TT2R2 score in patients with atrial fibrillation: The GLORIA-AF registry
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Hellenic Journal of Cardiology, Vol 62, Iss 2, Pp 152-157 (2021)
Abstract: Aim: The SAMe-TT2R2 score helps identify patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) likely to have poor anticoagulation control during anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and those with scores >2 might be better managed with a target-specific ...
Effect of continuing versus stopping pre-stroke antihypertensive agents within 12 h on outcome after stroke: A subgroup analysis of the efficacy of nitric oxide in stroke (ENOS) trial
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): EClinicalMedicine, Vol 44, Iss , Pp 101274- (2022)
Abstract: Summary: Background: It is not known whether to continue or temporarily stop existing antihypertensive drugs in patients with acute stroke. Methods: We performed a prospective subgroup analysis of patients enrolled into the Efficacy of Nitric Oxide in ...
Adherence to oral anticoagulation in ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Annals of Medicine, Vol 53, Iss 1, Pp 1613-1620 (2021)
Abstract: Background Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC) have superior safety and comparable efficacy profile compared to vitamin-K antagonists (VKAs), with more convenient dosing schemes. However, issues with adherence to the NOACs remain unsolv...
Soluble IL-2R Levels at Baseline Predict the Development of Severe Respiratory Failure and Mortality in COVID-19 Patients
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Viruses, Vol 14, Iss 787, p 787 (2022)
Abstract: Risk stratification of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) patients by simple markers is critical to guide treatment. We studied the predictive value of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) for the early identification of patients at risk of developin...
Dabigatran Reversal With Idarucizumab and In-Hospital Mortality in Intracranial Hemorrhage: A Systematic Review of Real-Life Data From Case Reports and Case Series
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Frontiers in Neurology, Vol 12 (2021)
Abstract: Background: Intracranial hemorrhage is a severe and possibly fatal consequence of anticoagulation therapy. Idarucizumab is used in dabigatran-treated patients suffering from intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) to reverse the anticoagulant effect of dabigatra...

Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, Vol 10, Iss 22 (2021)
Abstract: Background Available evidence supports an association between atrial high‐rate episode (AHRE) burden and thromboembolic risk, but the necessary extent and duration of AHREs to increase the thromboembolic risk remain to be defined. The aim of this syste...
