The associations of blood pressure with the different manifestations incident cardiovascular disease in a contemporary population have not been compared. In this study, we aimed to analyse 12 presentations disease.
<h3>Abstract</h3> <h3>Objectives</h3> To investigate the association between alcohol consumption and cardiovascular disease at higher resolution by examining initial lifetime presentation of 12 cardiac, cerebrovascular, abdominal, or peripheral vascular diseases among five categories consumption. <h3>Design</h3> Population based cohort study linked electronic health records covering primary care, hospital admissions, mortality in 1997-2010 (median follow-up six years). <h3>Setting</h3>...
The goal of cardiovascular disease (CVD) research using linked bespoke studies and electronic health records (CALIBER) is to provide evidence inform care public policy for CVDs across different stages translation, from discovery, through evaluation in trials implementation, where linkages new scientific opportunities. initial approach the CALIBER programme characterized as follows: (i) Linkages multiple heath record sources: examples include between longitudinal primary data Clinical...
Given the recent declines in heart attack and stroke incidence, it is unclear how women men differ first lifetime presentations of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). We compared incidence 12 cardiac, cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular at different ages.We studied 1 937 360 people, aged ≥ 30 years free from diagnosed CVD baseline (51% women), using linked electronic health records covering primary care, hospital admissions, acute coronary syndrome registry, mortality (Cardiovascular Research...
Background Depression is associated with coronary heart disease and stroke, but associations a range of pathologically diverse cardiovascular diseases are not well understood. We examine the risk 12 according to depression status (history or new onset). Methods Cohort study 1,937,360 adult men women, free from at baseline, using linked UK electronic health records between 1997 2010. The exposures were new-onset (a GP diagnosis and/or prescription for antidepressants during one-year...
The population with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) is growing but validated models to guide their clinical management are lacking. We developed and prognostic for all-cause mortality non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) or death in SCAD. Models were a linked electronic health records cohort of 102 023 SCAD patients from the CALIBER programme, mean follow-up 4.4 (SD 2.8) years during which 20 817 deaths 8856 outcomes observed. Kaplan–Meier 5-year risk was 20.6% (95% CI, 20.3, 20.9)...
It is not known how smoking affects the initial presentation of a wide range chronic and acute cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), nor extent to which associations are heterogeneous. We estimated lifetime cumulative incidence 12 CVD presentations, examined with cessation.Cohort study 1.93 million people aged ≥30years, no history CVD, in 1997-2010. Individuals were drawn from linked electronic health records England, covering primary care, hospitalizations, myocardial infarction (MI) registry...

While the association of ethnic group with individual cardiovascular diseases has been studied, little is known about differences in initial lifetime presentation clinical disease contemporary populations.We studied 1,068,318 people, aged ≥30 years and free from diagnosed CVD at baseline (90.9% White, 3.6% South Asian 2.9% Black), using English linked electronic health records covering primary care, hospital admissions, acute coronary syndrome registry mortality (CALIBER platform). During...
Background Prison telemedicine can improve the access, cost and quality of healthcare for prisoners, however adoption in prison systems worldwide has been variable despite these demonstrable benefits. This study examines anticipated realised benefits, barriers enablers telemedicine, thereby providing evidence to chances successful implementation. Methods A systematic search was conducted using a combination medical subject headings text word searches prisons telemedicine. Databases searched...
Background Gout commonly coexists with chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to reduced renal excretion of uric acid (UA). Guidelines recommend regular monitoring and dose adjustment urate-lowering therapy (ULT), but the rate adherence these guidelines is not well established. Our study aimed determine ULT in gout patients at our institution. In particular, we sought assess effect CKD as other comorbidities on prevalence guideline adherence. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort 5,985...
Purpose: Longitudinal strain is a valuable echocardiographic marker, yet its reliability in poor-quality images remains uncertain. Poor image quality common ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, raising concerns about the utility of analysis such cases. This study evaluated accuracy longitudinal predicting culprit vessel STEMI patients with suboptimal imaging. Methods: A retrospective 50 consecutive was performed using echocardiograms acquired during index...
The influences of gender and geography are increasingly being acknowledged as central to a comprehensive understanding health. Since little research on rural women's health has been conducted, an in-depth qualitative approach is necessary gain better initial this population.To explore the determinants their influence health.From November 2004 September 2005, 9 focus groups 3 individual interviews were conducted in 7 southwestern Ontario communities. Sixty-five residents aged 26 years older...
Introduction People in prison tend to experience poorer health, access healthcare services and health outcomes than the general population. Use of video consultations (telemedicine) has been proven effective at improving access, cost quality secondary care for prisoners USA Australia.
