  • - A new scoring system, the ORBIT score, is developed to evaluate bleeding risk in patients with atrial fibrillation and is also investigated for its correlation with 30-day mortality in those with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
  • - The study involved 639 STEMI patients, who were split into survival and non-survival groups after a 30-day follow-up, with higher scores seen in those who did not survive.
