Arch Cardiovasc Dis
December 2024
Article Synopsis
- * A significant portion of the French population engages in unhealthy behaviors: one-third smoke, 71.7% don’t consume enough fruits and vegetables, and many fail to meet physical activity guidelines.
- * Although there are some improvements, like increased physical activity in men and reduced smoking rates, serious concerns remain, especially as women's health behaviors begin to mirror those of men, highlighting the need for enhanced prevention efforts.
Article Synopsis
- The study reviews the management and outcomes of stroke cases in France, revealing significant data from the year 2022 after nearly a decade of a national stroke plan.
- In total, 122,422 adults were hospitalized for stroke, with stark variations in care based on geographic and socioeconomic factors, and low rates of advanced treatments like mechanical thrombectomy.
- The findings indicate high mortality rates within a year post-stroke and call for improved prevention strategies, better public awareness of stroke symptoms, and enhanced accessibility to stroke care services.
Epidemiology of aortic and peripheral arterial diseases in France.
Arch Cardiovasc Dis
December 2024
Background: Peripheral arterial diseases (PADs) account for much of the morbidity and hospitalizations experienced by patients with cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological data on these diseases are lacking in France.
Aims: To describe the epidemiology of aortic diseases (aneurysm and dissection) and PADs in France in 2022.
Background: Demographic changes and improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of valvular heart diseases (VHDs) have led to changes in its epidemiological profile.
Aims: To describe the epidemiology of VHD in France in 2022.
Methods: Adults hospitalized due to VHD in 2022 were identified from the French National Health Data System and categorized by type of VHD on the basis of hospital diagnoses and interventions.
Background: Few epidemiological data are available for venous thromboembolism (VTE) at French national and subnational levels.
Aims: To quantify VTE events in France in 2022 and describe the features of hospital management and outcomes.
Methods: Adults hospitalized for a VTE as the primary reason for hospitalization or treatment in a medical unit in 2022 were identified from medical administrative data.
