Summary Reasons for trends in venous thromboembolism (VTE) incidence are uncertain. It was our objective to determine VTE and risk factor prevalence, estimate population-attributable (PAR) each factor. In a population-based cohort study of all residents Olmsted County, Minnesota from 1981–2010, annual rates were calculated using incident cases as the numerator age- sex-specific County population estimates denominator. Poisson regression models used assess relationship crude year diagnosis,...
We examined the effect of relapses-before and after progression onset-on rate postprogression disability accrual in a progressive multiple sclerosis (MS) cohort.We studied patients with primary MS (n = 322) bout-onset (BOPMS) including single-attack 112) secondary 421). The relapses on time to Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score 6 was using multivariate Cox regression analysis (sex, age at progression, immunomodulation modeled as covariates). Kaplan-Meier performed EDSS...
<h3>Objective:</h3> To evaluate the relationship between early relapse recovery and onset of progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). <h3>Methods:</h3> We studied a population-based cohort (105 patients with relapsing-remitting MS, 86 bout-onset MS) clinic-based (415 MS), excluding primary MS. Bout-onset MS includes single-attack secondary “Good recovery” (as opposed to “poor recovery”) was assigned if peak deficit improved completely or almost (patient-reported examination-confirmed outcome...
Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) is associated with long-term outcomes of patients severe aortic stenosis. However, its prognostic value in moderate stenosis remains unknown. Patients diagnosed (1.0< valve area ≤1.5 cm2) and left ejection fraction ≥50% were identified. GLS was assessed by 2-dimensional imaging using speckle-tracking method. All-cause mortality according to the median value. Two hundred eighty-seven included (median age 76 years; 47% male). Mean 1.25 cm2,...
Background: We aim to study the incidence of major complications related procedure defined as in-hospital death, myocardial infarction, stroke, pericardial effusion or tamponade, percutaneous coronary intervention due iatrogenic dissection, unplanned bypass surgery within 72 hours after diagnostic left heart catheterization (LHC; primary end point). Furthermore, all causes death LHC were adjudicated and reported (secondary Methods Results: Diagnostic procedures (aortic angiography; coronary,...
The Medtronic Sprint Fidelis implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) lead was "recalled" in October 2007 after 268,000 implants worldwide due to increased failure risk. Manufacturer suggested monitoring has not been shown effective at preventing adverse events. Only limited data exist regarding clinical predictors of fracture. We sought identify risk factors for fracture guide and compare its performance with a control lead.Fractured cases were retrospectively reviewed demographic data,...
There has been a gradual decline in the prevalence of abnormal stress single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging studies among patients without history coronary artery disease (CAD). The trends SPECT with known CAD have not evaluated previously.We assessed Mayo Clinic nuclear cardiology database for all tests performed between January 1991 and December 2012 defined as having previous infarction, percutaneous intervention, bypass grafting. study cohort was...
Background Participation in cardiac rehabilitation ( CR ) is an essential component of care for patients with coronary artery disease. However, little known about its benefit on cardiovascular outcomes diabetes mellitus DM who have undergone percutaneous intervention. The aim our study was to evaluate the impact this high‐risk group patients. Methods and Results We performed a retrospective analysis all underwent intervention Olmsted County (Minnesota) between 1994 2010, assessing...
Purpose: Hiatal hernia (HH) causes protrusion of the stomach into chest cavity, directly impinging on left atrium and possibly increasing predisposition to atrial arrhythmogenesis. However, such association has not been fully explored. The objective was determine if an between HH fibrillation (AF) exists whether there are age- sex-related differences. Methods: Adult patients diagnosed with from 1976 2006 at Mayo Clinic Rochester, Minnesota, were evaluated for AF. number AF compared...
Background— Women have higher rates of all-cause mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention. Whether this is because greater age and comorbidity burden or a sex-specific factor remains unclear. Methods Results— We retrospectively assessed cause-specific long-term index intervention over 3 time periods (1991–1997, 1998–2005, 2006–2012). Cause death was determined using telephone interviews, medical records, certificates. performed competing risks analyses mortality. A total 6847 women...
With vaccination rates lagging in areas with higher social vulnerability, small financial incentives should be considered conjunction other equity-promoting strategies. 5,6 The incentive of cash cards for drivers may also encourage people to help get their friends and family vaccinated, a powerful motivator those undecided about vaccination.With hundreds millions dollars being spent accelerate COVID-19 vaccine uptake, these study findings suggest that this strategy increasing merits greater...
Background— Little is known about the clinical value of stress imaging studies in asymptomatic patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods and Results— Residents Olmsted County, MN, who underwent PCI were followed up for occurrence (stress nuclear or echocardiography), angiography, artery bypass grafting (without angiography) as initial procedures PCI. Patients whose first follow-up procedure was a test evaluated their symptom status at time study whether they...
