Background: Limited evidence exists on the role of depression in the risk of developing stroke and other cardiovascular outcomes in patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). We investigated this relationship with data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database.

Methods: Our nationwide retrospective cohort study included 164,198 patients who had undergone PCI between 2010 and 2017. Depression was defined with the ICD-10 codes recorded prior to the PCI. The primary outcome was a new-onset stroke following the PCI. Secondary outcomes included PCI with myocardial infarction (MI), revascularization (PCI or coronary artery bypass grafting), and all-cause mortality. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to calculate adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusting for potential confounders, including sociodemographic and lifestyle factors, comorbidities, and MI at the index PCI.

Results: Over a median follow-up of 5.0 years, acute stroke occurred in 5.7% of patients with pre-existing depression (17.4% of the study population), compared to 3.5% of those without depression. Depression was associated with a 27% increased risk of acute stroke (aHR 1.27, 95% CI 1.20-1.35). Additionally, depression was linked with a 25% elevated risk of all-cause death (aHR 1.25, 95% CI, 1.21-1.29) and an 8% increased risk of revascularization (aHR 1.08, 95% CI 1.04-1.11). The associations with the risk of stroke and all-cause mortality were stronger in patients under 65 years.

Conclusions: Our findings suggest that pre-existing depression may increase the risk of stroke and all-cause mortality following PCI, particularly in patients under 65 years. Additionally, depression was significantly associated with an increased need for revascularization. This underscores the potential benefits of managing depression to reduce stroke risk and overall cardiovascular outcomes following PCI.

Integrated analysis of the prevalence and influencing factors of poststroke dysphagia.

Eur J Med Res

Clinical Research and Big Data Center, South China Research Center for Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Medical College of Acu-Moxi and Rehabilitation, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Guangzhou, China.

Objectives: Poststroke dysphagia (PSD) is a common complication after stroke but there is limited information on its global prevalence and influencing factors, such as spatial, temporal, demographic characteristics, and stroke-related factors. Our study seeks to fill this knowledge gap by exploring the overall prevalence of PSD and its influencing factors.

Methods: A search of English-language literature from database inception from 2005 until May 2022 was performed using PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Scopus.

Introduction: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is a major cause of mortality during the acute phase of stroke. The ADS score is widely used to predict SAP risk but does not include 24-h non-contrast computed tomography-Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (NCCT-ASPECTS) or red cell distribution width (RDW). We aim to evaluate the added prognostic value of incorporating 24-h NCCT-ASPECTS and RDW into the ADS score and to develop a novel prediction model for SAP following thrombolysis.

Background: Adenomyosis, typically associated with heavy menstrual bleeding and pelvic pain, is rarely linked to neurological complications. This case presents a rare instance of ischemic stroke in a young patient with adenomyosis and vascular abnormalities, underscoring the role of anemia, hypercoagulability, and vascular factors as potential contributors to cerebral infarction.

Case Presentation: We describe a 41-year-old female with a history of adenomyosis who presented with right-sided hemianopia and dizziness following severe menstrual bleeding.

Sepsis is a severe infectious disease with high mortality. However, the indicators used to evaluate its severity and prognosis are relatively complicated. The systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI), a new inflammatory indicator, has shown good predictive value in chronic infection, stroke, and cancer.

Visit-to-visit lipid variability on long-term major adverse cardiovascular events: a prospective multicentre cohort from the CORE-Thailand registry.

Lipid variability (LV) has been studied and proposed as a potential predictor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), and increased LV may contribute to adverse clinical outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the association of various LV parameters with the risk of long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among the Thai population. The study used data from the CORE-Thailand Registry, a prospective multicentre study of adults with high cardiovascular risk or established CVD.
