Abstract
Objectives: Endocardial fibroelastosis (EFE) is a rare form of restrictive cardiomyopathy associated with high morbidity and mortality. The literature is sparse on information pertaining to risk stratification. Thus, we sought to highlight the risk factors of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and mortality in adults with EFE.
Methods: The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database was queried from 2001 to 2020 using the International Classification of Diseases 9th Revision (ICD-9) and 10th Revision (ICD-10) codes for adult patients with EFE. Factors associated with AIS and mortality were identified.
Results: In all, 18495 cases of EFE fit the inclusion criteria, of which 2370 (12.82%) had AIS. The mean ages for patients with and without AIS were 62.37 and 54.24, respectively. Multivariate regression suggested greater odds of AIS in patients with hypertension (aOR 2.329, P <0.01), dyslipidemia (aOR: 1.566, P <0.01), peripheral vascular disease (PVD) (aOR: 1.736, P <0.01), alcohol abuse (aOR: 1.817, P <0.01), age >60 y (aOR: 1.646, P <0.01), females (vs. males, aOR: 1.238, P <0.01), and smokers (aOR: 1.697, P <0.01). Patients with cirrhosis (aOR: 0.174, P <0.01), CKD (aOR: 0.369, P <0.01), COPD (aOR: 0.402, P <0.01), atrial fibrillation (aOR: 0.542, P <0.01) had lower odds of AIS. 3.1% of EFE patients with AIS died. Diabetes (aOR: 11.665, P <0.01) and COPD (aOR: 3.201, P =0.017) were associated with the greatest odds of all-cause mortality. Dyslipidemia (aOR: 0.387, P =0.010) and females (vs. males, aOR: 0.432, P =0.012) had reduced odds of all-cause mortality.
Conclusion: Several risk factors are associated with AIS in EFE, while diabetes, COPD, and being male are associated with mortality in EFE.
期刊介绍:
The Neurologist publishes articles on topics of current interest to physicians treating patients with neurological diseases. The core of the journal is review articles focusing on clinically relevant issues. The journal also publishes case reports or case series which review the literature and put observations in perspective, as well as letters to the editor. Special features include the popular "10 Most Commonly Asked Questions" and the "Patient and Family Fact Sheet," a handy tear-out page that can be copied to hand out to patients and their caregivers.
