Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors and Bleeding Risk in the Geriatric Population.
Innov Clin Neurosci
December 2024
All authors are with Ocean University Medical Center in Brick, New Jersey.
Introduction: The demographics of the United States (US) are evolving as time progresses. The geriatric population is growing, with many elderly people dealing with mental health issues. Major depressive episodes affect 1 to 5 percent of those aged 65 years or older, which emphasizes the importance of addressing mental health concerns in this populace.

Flow diversion is a transformative approach in neurointerventional surgery for intracranial aneurysms that relies heavily on effective antiplatelet therapy. The ideal approach, including the timing of treatment, the use of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), and the number of flow-diverter devices to use, remains unknown. DAPT, which combines aspirin with a thienopyridine like clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor, is the standard regimen, balancing thromboembolic protection and hemorrhagic risk.

Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, BronxCare Health System, Clinical Affiliate of Mt Sinai Health Systems and Academic Affiliate of Icahn School of Medicine, 10C, 1650 Selwyn Avenue, Bronx, NY, 10457, USA.
Background: Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) tube insertion, a routine procedure for long-term enteral nutrition, serves as a crucial intervention for patients who are incapable of tolerating oral intake or meeting adequate nutritional requirements. PEG tube placement carries complications like bleeding and infection. Impact of PEG tubes on the 30-day and long-term mortality in HIV patients is unknown.

Eur J Prev Cardiol
December 2024
Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, USA.
Aim: Due to the absence of validated bleeding risk tools in cancer patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), we aimed to validate an adapted version of the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) High Bleeding Risk (HBR) criteria.
Methods: Consecutive patients with active or remission cancer undergoing PCI between 2012 and 2022 at Mount Sinai Hospital (New York, USA) were included. Patients were considered at HBR if they met at least one of the major ARC-HBR criteria, other than cancer, or two minor criteria.
Demographic diversity in platelet function and response to antiplatelet therapy.

Recent studies have highlighted the complexity of platelet biology, revealing their diverse roles beyond hemostasis. Pathological platelet activation is now recognized as a key contributor to thrombosis and inflammation that are both central to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Emerging research emphasizes the significant impact of demographic factors - such as age, sex, race, and ethnicity - on CVD risk and responses to antiplatelet therapies.
