Contemporary nationwide trends in major adverse cardiovascular events in young cannabis users without concomitant tobacco, alcohol, cocaine use.

Background: Cannabis use has increased among young individuals in recent years. Although dependent cannabis use disorder (CUD) has been associated with various cardiac events, its effects on young adults without concurrent substance use remain understudied.

Aim: To examine trends in hospitalizations for major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in this cohort.

Recurrent stroke admissions with without COVID-19 and associated in-hospital mortality: A United States nationwide analysis, 2020.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been shown to increase the risk of stroke. However, the prevalence and risk of recurrent stroke in COVID-19 patients with prior stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA), as well as its impact on mortality, are not established.

Aim: To evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on in-hospital mortality, length of stay, and healthcare costs in patients with recurrent strokes.

Link between irritable bowel syndrome, depression, and colorectal cancer risk in young patients: Age-matched nationwide population-based study.

Background: There exists a link between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and depression. Similarly, chronic depression is known to increase the risk of cancer in general. In this population-based analysis, we investigated the prevalence and the odds of colorectal cancer (CRC) in young-depressed patients with IBS.

Sex and racial disparities in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-related cardiovascular events: National inpatient sample analysis (2019).

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) increases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk irrespective of other risk factors. However, large-scale cardiovascular sex and race differences are poorly understood.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between NAFLD and major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in subgroups using a nationally representative United States inpatient sample.

Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events in Geriatric Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea: An Inpatient Sample Analysis.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with an increased risk of major cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). However, data on the burden and predictors of MACCE in geriatric patients with OSA (G-OSA) remain limited.

Methods: Using the National Inpatient Sample from 2018, we identified G-OSA admissions (age ≥ 65 years) and divided them into non-MACCE vs.

Predicting Risk of Cardiac Arrest in Young Asian Americans: Insights from an Artificial Neural Network Analysis of the Nationwide Cohort.

We used the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to identify predictors of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in a national cohort of young Asian patients in the United States. The National Inpatient Sample (2019) was used to identify young Asians (18-44-year-old) who were hospitalized with SCA. The neural network's predicted criteria for SCA were selected.

Recurrent/Subsequent Stroke and Associated Outcomes in Geriatric Patients with OSA and Prior Stroke Events: A Retrospective Study Using the 2019 National Inpatient Sample.

: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) increases the risk of stroke and cardiovascular diseases. However, its impact on geriatric patients with a prior history of stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) has not been adequately studied. We utilized the 2019 National Inpatient Sample in the US to identify geriatric patients with OSA (G-OSA) who had a prior history of stroke/TIA.

An Unusual Case of May-Thurner Syndrome in a Middle-Aged IV Drug Abuser.

May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) is an extrinsic venous compression of the iliocaval venous territory by the arterial system. MTS is common in middle-aged women. Despite its importance, it is uncommonly considered in the differential diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), especially in males with other risk factors.

Epidemiology of out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrests, knowledge of cardiovascular disease and risk factors in a regional setting in India: The Warangal Area out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Registry (WACAR).

Objective: Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA) is a global public health problem. There is inadequate data on OHCA in India. The Warangal Area out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest Registry (WACAR) was planned to understand OHCA in a regional setting in India.
