GLORIA-AF (Global Registry on Long-Term Oral Antithrombotic Treatment in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation) is a prospective, global registry program describing antithrombotic treatment patterns patients newly diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation at risk of stroke. Phase 2 began when dabigatran, the first non–vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC), became available. This study sought to describe phase baseline data and compare these pre-NOAC era collected during 1. During 2,...
Previous studies suggested potential ethnic differences in the management and outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF). We aim to analyse oral anticoagulant (OAC) prescription, discontinuation, risk adverse Asian patients with AF, using data from a global prospective cohort study.From GLORIA-AF Registry Phase II-III (November 2011-December 2014 for II, January 2014-December 2016 III), we analysed according their self-reported ethnicity (Asian vs. non-Asian), as well subgroups (Chinese, Japanese,...
The cardiovascular complications caused by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) decrease after continuous positive airway pressure treatment (CPAP). Mean platelet volume (MPV), distribution width (PDW), and red cell (RDW) are newly recognized tools for assessing risk.From a selection of patients with symptoms nocturnal snoring and/or excessive daytime sleepiness, 36 males an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) > 30/h 22 age-matched normal male controls AHI < 5/h were included. Patients OSA underwent another...
Abstract Aims Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) may influence management and prognosis of Atrial Fibrillation (AF), but this relationship has been scarcely explored in contemporary global cohorts. We aimed to investigate the association between AF COPD, relation treatment patterns major outcomes. Methods From prospective, GLORIA-AF Registry, we analysed factors associated with COPD diagnosis, as well risk outcomes COPD. Primary outcome was composite all-cause death adverse...
Abstract Pain in occipital neuralgia (ON) originates from the upper cervical nerves converging with trigeminal complex. Greater nerve (GON) blocks and radiofrequency treatments can be used refractory ON. To assess efficacy of ultrasound-guided proximal greater (PGON) continous ablation (CRFA) ON throughout 1 year. We analyzed data medical records headache diaries. Before intervention 1, 3, 6, 12 months after intervention, at each appointment we evaluated intensity through 11-point Numeric...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by reductions in breathing amplitude during caused an obstructed or collapsed upper airway. The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed as a novel biomarker for systemic inflammatory response. aim of the present study was evaluate relationship between NLR and OSA.The population consisted 195 consecutive patients with clinical suspicion OSA. Full night polysomnography performed all patients. Patients hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5 were...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical effects cognitive impairment in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A total 91 stable moderate very severe COPD were included study. Cognitive functions evaluated using mini-mental state examination (MMSE) tool and clock-drawing test. Brody’s Instrumental Activities Daily Living (IADL) Questionnaire; assessment test (CAT); body mass index, airflow obstruction, dyspnea, exercise capacity (BODE); Charlson comorbidity...
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disorder that can lead to significant cardiovascular complications. Several studies have reported increased platelet activation and aggregation in patients with OSAS. In this study we aimed show correlation between mean volume (MPV) severity of OSAS without any overt cardiac disease or diabetes. The polysomnography recordings 556 consecutive admitted the laboratory January 2012 July were retrospectively evaluated. relationship...
Abstract The 2MACE score was specifically developed as a risk-stratification tool in atrial fibrillation (AF) to predict cardiovascular outcomes. We evaluated the predictive ability of GLORIA-AF registry. All eligible patients from phase II/III prospective global registry were included. Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) defined composite outcome stroke, myocardial infarction and death. Cox proportional hazards used examine relationship between study Predictive capability investigated...
Along with contour interaction, inaccurate and imprecise eye movements attention have been suggested to contribute poorer acuity for "crowded" versus uncrowded targets. To investigate the role of in foveal crowding, we compared percent correct letter identification short long lines near-threshold letters different separations.Five normal observers read (4 6 letters) (10 12 near-threshold, Sloan edge-to-edge separations 0.5, 1, 2 spaces. Percent 4 interior strings 8 10 was a no-crowding...
Abstract Objective We evaluated the association between triglyceride–glucose (TG) index, a marker of insulin resistance, and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) severity in patients without diabetes mellitus, obesity, metabolic syndrome. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 1,527 patients. used univariate multivariate analyses to identify independent predictors associated with OSA. Results Most were males (81.5%) mean age 43.9 ± 11.1 (15–90) years. Based on apnoea–hypopnea index...
We aimed to validate the Turkish version of Stigma Scale Epilepsy (SSE) (from Brazil) and present results.The SSE was completed by 33 patients with epilepsy (PWE), 25 patients' family members, 23 people from community. Subjects were interviewed on an individual basis; a physician read questions subjects wrote answers sheet. The form same for all subjects. In addition, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) Hamilton Anxiety (HAI), Short Form-36 (SF-36) subjects.We 81 internal consistency showed...
<h3>Objective:</h3> To investigate bone resorption and formation markers as well mineral density in women with restless legs syndrome (RLS). <h3>Methods:</h3> This was a prospective cross-sectional case-control study involving drug-naive RLS age- body mass index (BMI)–matched female controls. Routine blood analyses, of formation, procollagen 1 n-terminal peptide, resorption, c-telopeptide type collagen (CTX), sclerostin, (BMD) were compared between the 2 groups. Pregnant or breastfeeding...
Deterioration in sleep quality and hygiene may result impairments on mental physical health leading to deterioration of life (QoL) healthcare shift workers. We aimed determine the presence as well poor hygiene, if any, effects these health-related outcomes.This study prospectively included professionals who did not work shifts (n=90 n=66, respectively). The participants completed Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hygiene (SHI), Epworth Daytime Sleepiness Scale (EDSS), Short Form-36...
