Objective: We assessed if age was an effect modifier in a pooled analysis of two randomized trials comparing CAS and CEA in asymptomatic patients, CREST and ACT I.
Methods: We analyzed data from 2544 patients aged <80 with ≥70% asymptomatic carotid stenosis randomized to CAS or CEA (n=1091; n=1453) who were recruited between 2000 and 2013. Age was considered in four strata (<65, 65-69, 70-74 and 75-79).
Background: Anxiety affects around one in five women during pregnancy and after birth. However, there is no systematic information on the proportion of women with perinatal anxiety disorders who want or receive treatment.
Aims: To examine (a) the prevalence of anxiety disorders during pregnancy and after birth in a population-based sample, and (b) the proportion of women with anxiety disorders who want treatment and receive treatment.
