Mashup Score: 0Significance of Late Gadolinium Enhancement at Right Ventricular Attachment to Ventricular Septum in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy - 1 year(s) ago
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with extensive late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) is a novel marker for increased risk for sudden death (SD) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC). Small focal areas of LGE confined to the region of right ventricular (RV) insertion to ventricular septum (VS) have emerged as a frequent and highly visible CMR imaging pattern of uncertain…

Mashup Score: 1Outcomes in Patients With Early Menopause Who Underwent Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation - 1 year(s) ago
Early menopause is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, including aortic stenosis (AS). We sought to investigate the prevalence and impact of early menopause on clinical outcomes in patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for severe symptomatic AS. Women’s International TAVI is a multinational, prospective, observational registry of women who…

Mashup Score: 2Changes in arterial pressure during left heart pullback in patients with aortic stenosis: A sign of severe aortic stenosis - 1 year(s) ago
Increases in peripheral arterial pressure of 5 mm Hg or more were noted during retrograde withdrawal of a catheter from the left ventricle to the central aorta in 15 of 42 patients with aortic stenosis undergoing cardiac catheterization. These increases were noted in 15 of 20 patients (75 percent) with an aortic valve area of 0.6 cm2 or less but in none of the 22 patients with an aortic valve…

Mashup Score: 0Meta-Analysis Comparing Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion, Direct Oral Anticoagulants, and Warfarin for Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation - 1 year(s) ago
Randomized trials have shown that direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are superior to warfarin in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. However, long-term use of anticoagulation carries an inherent risk of bleeding and nonadherence. Although the use of percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become readily available, its effectiveness relative to oral anticoagulants is…

@drjohnm @Sensible__Med @f2harrell And don't forget this meta-analysis. https://t.co/etGqMcGFt6 How does LAAO reduce mortality c/w warfarin (0.69, 0.50-0.90) without reducing stroke (0.89, 0.52-1.59) or bleeding (0.72, 0.37-1.35)?

Mashup Score: 1Association of Frailty Status on the Causes and Outcomes of Patients Admitted With Cardiovascular Disease - 1 year(s) ago
Data are limited about the contemporary association between frailty and the causes and outcomes of patients admitted with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Using the US National Inpatient Sample, CVD admissions of interest (acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure, pulmonary embolism, cardiac arrest, and hemorrhagic stroke) were stratified by Hospital…

Mashup Score: 1Is There a Role for Coronary Calcium in Patients With Diabetes? - 1 year(s) ago
In the primary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), a significant portion of high-risk patients have diabetes. Two decades ago, patients with or without cardiovascular disease were identified as having coronary heart disease (CHD) risk equivalents because prospective studies showed that they were at risk for future CHD events equivalent to that of patients with…

Mashup Score: 2Incidence, Predictors, and Outcomes of Major Bleeding Among Patients Hospitalized With Acute Heart Failure - 1 year(s) ago
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a common etiology of hospitalization and is associated with morbidity, including bleeding. In this study, the authors sought to assess the incidence, types, and associates of major bleeding in patients hospitalized with AHF. The National Inpatient Sample from October 2015 to December 2018 was used to identify patients with AHF. The incidence of common bleeding…

Mashup Score: 2Use of Flecainide for the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation - 1 year(s) ago
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia and is associated with substantial morbidity and impairment of quality of life. Restoration and maintenance of normal sinus rhythm is a desirable goal for many patients with AF; however, this strategy is limited by the relatively small number of antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) available for AF rhythm control. Although it is recommended…

Mashup Score: 0Are We What We Eat? The Moral Imperative of the Medical Profession to Promote Plant-Based Nutrition - 1 year(s) ago
The typical Western diet, high in processed and animal-based foods, is nutritionally and ethically problematic. Beyond the well-documented cruelty to animals that characterizes the practices of the factory-farming industry, current patterns of meat consumption contribute to medical and moral harm in humans on both an individual level and a public health scale. We aim to deconstruct, by…
