Older adults with cardiovascular disease (CVD) contend deficits across multiple domains of health due to age-related physiological changes and the impact CVD. Multimorbidity, polypharmacy, cognitive changes, diminished functional capacity, along in social environment, result complexity that makes provision CVD care older challenging. In this review, we first describe history geriatric cardiology, an orientation acknowledges unique needs Then, introduce 5 essential principles for meeting CVD:...
Lung cancer is the second most common worldwide and leading cause of cancer-related death. While survival rates have improved with advancements in therapeutics, additional health challenges surfaced. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) a morbidity mortality patients lung cancer. CVD share many risk factors, such as smoking, hypertension, diabetes, advanced age, obesity. Optimal management this patient population requires full understanding potential cardiovascular (CV) complications treatment. This...
The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases markedly rises with age. Cellular senescence, a hallmark aging, is characterized by irreversible cell cycle arrest and the manifestation senescence-associated secretory phenotype, which has emerged as significant contributor to mortality, spectrum chronic ailments. An increasing body preclinical clinical research established connections between age-related cardiac vascular pathologies. This review comprehensively outlines studies delving into...
Coronary artery disease (CAD) often leads to myocardial infarction, which may be fatal. Risk factors can used predict CAD, subsequently lead prevention or early intervention. Patient data such as co-morbidities, medication history, social history and family are required determine the risk for a disease. However, factor usually embedded in unstructured clinical narratives if is not collected specifically assessment purposes. Clinical text mining extract related from notes. This study presents...
Abstract Objectives To examine age‐related trajectories of cardiovascular risk and use aspirin statin among U.S. adults aged 50 or older. Design Repeated cross‐sectional study using data from 2011 to 2018 National Health Nutrition Examination Surveys. Setting Nationally representative health interview survey in the United States. Participants Non‐institutionalized years older ( n = 11,392 unweighted). Measurements Primary prevention was defined as a first event including coronary heart...
The population worldwide is getting older as a result of advances in public health, medicine, and technology. Older individuals are living longer with higher prevalence subclinical clinical cardiovascular disease (CVD). In 2010, the American Heart Association introduced list key prevention targets, known "Life's Simple 7'' to increase CVD-free survival, longevity, quality life. 2022, sleep health was added expand recommendations Essential 8'' (eat better, be more active, stop smoking, get...
The presence of frailty or delirium among patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is associated with increased mortality and prolonged hospital stay.
Objective Delirium is a frequently encountered clinical condition in hospitalized patients and known to be associated with poor outcomes. This study aims assess the impacts of delirium elderly undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods We queried National Inpatient Samples from 2010 2014 identify all aged 65 older, admitted primary diagnosis STEMI PCI by using International Classification Diseases-Ninth Edition-Clinical...
Cocaine is associated with a wide array of complications through number different mechanisms. Although the majority cocaine-related morbidity has been attributed to in arterial vasculature, deleterious impact venous appears be largely unrepresented current literature as well clinical practice despite emerging evidence high prevalence and annual incidence deep vein thrombosis (DVT) illicit drug users. Our case report illustrates an uncharacteristic presentation widespread thrombotic cascade...
Primary central nervous system (CNS) marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MZBCL) arising from the dural meninges is a rare but indolent disease. This malignancy can present in various ways, hence making it difficult to diagnose. Biopsy results dictate an appropriate treatment plan, which commonly consists of combination surgical resection, whole brain radiotherapy and systemic therapy.
Vasospastic angina (VSA) is defined as spasm of the coronaries leading to transient constriction and eventual myocardial ischemia. VSA treated typically with calcium-channel blockers (CCBs) nitrates. However, there are times when vasospasm refractory typical medications. When this occurs, unconventional treatment modalities may be employed for symptomatic relief. We present a case 48-year-old-male history inferior ST-elevation infarction (STEMI) status post percutaneous coronary intervention...
Cardiac dysfunction is often seen following neurological injury. Data regarding cardiac involvement after ischemic stroke sparse. We investigated the association of electrocardiographic (ECG) and echocardiographic variables with outcomes an acute stroke.
Introduction Coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) are not commonly seen in the general population, with an incidence of approximately 0.37% to 2.53%. Patients typically asymptomatic but symptomatic presentation varies from dyspnea and angina myocardial infarction or even sudden cardiac death. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis using National Inpatient Sample Healthcare Cost Utilization Project (NIS-HCUP) database query individuals diagnosis CAA International Classification Disease...
Cardiac involvement is rare in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) but can occur as a complication of either the itself or drug therapy. We describe an interesting clinical scenario acute myopericarditis during Crohn's flare-up. A 37-year-old patient with severe started having multiple bloody movements associated abdominal pain. These symptoms were attributed to flare-up, prompting addition steroids and increase dose mesalamine without any significant relief. Two weeks later, he presented...
