  • This study examines the risk factors for Alzheimer disease patients who also experience neuropsychiatric symptoms (ADNPS) in both males and females.
  • Researchers analyzed data from a regional Alzheimer care center using univariate analysis and logistic regression to identify these risk factors.
  • Findings indicate that male ADNPS patients are linked to dyslipidemia and cerebral infarction, while female ADNPS patients have a stronger association with chronic heart failure.

The objective of this study is to determine risk factors that may contribute to exclusion decision from recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with a combined current or history of smoking and obesity. This study was conducted on data from 5469 patients with AIS collected from a regional stroke registry. Risk factors associated with inclusion or exclusion from rtPA were determined using multivariate logistic regression analysis.

The purpose of this study was to generate a quantitative profile of electrocardiograms (ECGs) for confirming surgical success of permanent coronary artery ligation. An ECG was recorded at baseline, and 0, 1, and 5 min after ligation and analyzed using iWorkx LabScribe software. (C57Bl6/J, = 8/sex) was enrolled to determine ECG characteristics that were confirmed in (C57Bl6/J, = 6/sex; = 6 males/4 females).
