Previous analyses on sex differences in case fatality rates at population-level data had limited adjustment for key patient clinical characteristics thought to be associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcomes. We aimed estimate the risk of specific organ dysfunctions and mortality women men.This retrospective cross-sectional study included 17 hospitals within 5 European countries participating International Survey Acute Coronavirus Syndromes COVID-19 (NCT05188612)....
Background Empiric antimicrobial therapy with azithromycin is highly used in patients admitted to the hospital COVID-19, despite prior research suggesting that may be associated increased risk of cardiovascular events. Methods and Results This study was conducted using data from ISACS-COVID-19 (International Survey Acute Coronavirus Syndromes-COVID-19) registry. Patients a confirmed diagnosis SARS-CoV-2 infection were eligible for inclusion. The included 793 exposed within 24 hours admission...
Abstract Background Although Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) provides strong prognostic information of an unfavorable outcome in patients with acute heart failure (AHF), there is little its relevance as a biomarker for outcomes COVID-19 and complications Purpose To evaluate the association increased BNP levels in-hospital mortality cohort hospitalized patients. Methods The study included data on ISACS registry. population was categorized according to presence peak ≥100 pg/mL during...
Background: Women have poorer outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) due to older age, comorbidities, atypical presentation and delay admission. 1The aim is consider gender differences the Croatian Branch of ISACS-CT registry.Methods: From January 2012 February 2017, 1808 patients were enrolled branch registry, 46% (n=844) presenting with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 35% (n=637) non-ST (NSTEMI) 18% (n=327) unstable angina.Sex ratio, male female, was 2.2:1, median...

Abstract Background and aim In recent years, worse outcomes of female acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients have been recognized. The was to explore gender differences in ACS the Croatian branch ISACS-CT registry (NCT01218776). Methods From January 2012 May 2018, 3066 were enrolled; 50% (n=1539) presenting with STEMI, 35% (n=1071) NSTEMI, 15% (n=456) unstable angina (UA). In-hospital mortality defined as primary endpoint. Results At admission women older, more burdened comorbidities, a...
Abstract Background Patients with cancer represent a uniquely vulnerable population not only higher susceptibility to COVID-19 but also at increased risk for death. However, detailed information on causes of death and the contribution pre-existing health conditions yet is missing. Purpose This study focuses implications in cardiovascular patients by assessing relation between de novo acute heart failure (AHF) in-hospital mortality. Methods The initial consisted 3968 included ISACS registry...
Background: Late graft disfunction in patients after heart transplantation (HTx) is most often due to allograft rejection or coronary artery disease but may also be infectious myocarditis occasionally occur without any documentable cause.Nonspecific dysfunction caused by unrecognized even because of unremarkable endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) specimens sampling error 1 .Management these very challenging. Case report:We present 3 who developed nonspecific within 2 years HTx.38-year-old male...
