Differences between private and public primary health care centers and differences between men and women in antihypertensive care and cardiovascular prevention in all patients with hypertension treated in primary care in Stockholm County, Sweden.
BMC Prim Care
January 2025
Division of Family Medicine and Primary Care, Department of Neurobiology, Care Sciences and Society, Karolinska Institutet, Huddinge, Sweden.
Aims: To study differences in cardiovascular prevention and hypertension management in primary care in men and women, with comparisons between public and privately operated primary health care (PHC).
Methods: We used register data from Region Stockholm on collected prescribed medication and registered diagnoses, to identify patients aged 30 years and above with hypertension. Age-adjusted logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) with 99% confidence intervals (99% CIs) using public PHC centers as referents.
Cachectic biomarkers as confounders behind the obesity paradox in patients with acute decompensated heart failure.
Int J Obes (Lond)
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Sakakibara Heart Institute, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Obesity is a risk factor for heart failure (HF) development but is associated with a lower incidence of mortality in HF patients. This obesity paradox may be confounded by unrecognized comorbidities, including cachexia.
Methods: A retrospective assessment was conducted using data from a prospectively recruiting multicenter registry, which included consecutive acute heart failure patients.
Analysis of clinical features and prognosis in cardiac amyloidosis patients from Spanish hospitals (2016-2021).
Rev Clin Esp (Barc)
January 2025
Institute for the Improvement of Health Care (IMAS Foundation), Madrid, Spain.
Introduction And Objectives: Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a prevalent yet underdiagnosed heart condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of amyloid fibres, frequently resulting in heart failure (HF), particularly in older people. Despite advancements in non-invasive diagnostic techniques and treatments, the epidemiology of CA patients remains inadequately understood. This nationwide retrospective observational study sought to comprehensively investigate CA patients' characteristics, mortality, and readmission patterns.

Rev Clin Esp (Barc)
January 2025
Servicio de Cardiología, Hospital Universitario de La Princesa, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, IIS-IP, CIBER-CV, Madrid, Spain.
Background And Objectives: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an infrequent cause of acute coronary syndrome much better diagnosed in recent years. This study sought to assess the clinical profile of patients admitted with TTS in Spain and to elucidate potential regional differences in admissions and in-hospital mortality between the years 2008 and 2021.
Methods: Retrospective observational study of patients admitted to acute general hospitals of the Spanish National Health System with a main or secondary diagnosis of STT, using the minimum basic data set.
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Objective: Frailty is defined as a state of minimal "physiologic reserve." The modified 5 factor frailty index (mFI-5) is a recently proposed metric for assessing frailty and has been previously studied as a predictor of morbidity and mortality.
