Fang, Xianzhang Zhan, Shulin Wu, Yumei Xue","doi":"10.31083/j.rcm2503079","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31083/j.rcm2503079","url":null,"abstract":"Background : The reported anticoagulation rate may be overestimated among Chinese patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Therefore, we aimed to understand the current status and time trends of anticoagulation among older people in the Chinese community. Methods : Data were obtained from the physical examination program for the elderly (aged ≥ 65 years) in Guangzhou. During 2017–2020, a total of 31,829, 58,573, 55,483, and 54,845 older people underwent annual physical examinations, respectively, where their general information, AF-related medical history, and use of oral anticoagulants (OACs) were collected for analysis. Results : From 2017 to 2020, the estimated annual prevalence of older people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) in Guangzhou was 0.99%, 0.92%, 1.05%, and 1.14%, respectively. In patients with high stroke risk (CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥ 2 for males or ≥ 3 for females), the annual anticoagulation rates were 2.83%, 2.05%, 5.29%, and 5.82%, respectively. The proportion of NVAF patients prescribed non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) increased gradually over the same period ( p = 0.004). Males (odds ratios (OR), 1.797; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.169–2.763; p = 0.008), ages over 75 (OR, 1.858; 95% CI, 1.212–2.849; p = 0.005), low education levels (OR, 1.737; 95% CI, 1.132–2.665; p = 0.011), and lacking the ability for self-care (OR, 4.432; 95% CI, 1.067–18.418; p = 0.041) were less likely to receive OAC therapy. Conclusions : The low anticoagulation rate of older people with NVAF in the Chinese community has not significantly improved in recent years, with only 5.82% of patients with high stroke risk being prescribed OACs. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an appropriate mode of anticoagulant management to improve the current situation.","PeriodicalId":507771,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140416487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, there are no existing guidelines or risk prediction models to assist physicians in managing or preventing short sleep duration or insomnia following MI. This study aims to develop a nomogram for predicting the risk of short sleep duration after MI. Methods : We conducted a retrospective study on 1434 MI survivors aged 20 and above, utilizing data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database spanning from 2007 to 2018. Among them, 710 patients were assigned to the training group, while 707 patients were allocated to the testing group. We utilized logistic regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, and the elastic network for variable selection. The stability and accuracy of the prediction model were assessed using receiver operator characteristics (ROCs) and calibration curves. Results : We included five variables in the nomogram: age, poverty income ratio (PIR), body mass index (BMI), race, and depression. The ROC curves yielded values of 0.636 for the training group and 0.657 for the testing group, demonstrating the model’s good prediction accuracy and robustness through a calibration curve test. Conclusions : Our nomogram can effectively predict the likelihood of short sleep duration in MI survivors, providing valuable support for clinicians in preventing and managing post-MI short sleep duration.","PeriodicalId":507771,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140421071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The marked heterogeneity of this population is due to several factors like age, comorbidities, frailty, and other geriatric conditions. All these variables have a strong impact on outcomes. In addition, a high prevalence of multivessel disease, complex coronary anatomies, and peripheral arterial disease, increases the risk of invasive procedures in these patients. In advanced age, the type and duration of antithrombotic therapy need to be individualized according to bleeding risk. Although an invasive strategy for non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is recommended for the general population, its need is not so clear in octogenarians. For instance, although frail patients could benefit from revascularization, their higher risk of complications might change the risk/benefit ratio. Age alone should not be the main factor to consider when deciding the type of strategy. The risk of futility needs to be taken into account and identification of risk factors for adverse outcomes, such as renal impairment, could help in the decision-making process. Finally, an initially selected conservative strategy should be open to a change to invasive management depending on the clinical course (recurrent angina, ventricular arrhythmias, heart failure). Further evidence, ideally from prospective randomized clinical trials is urgent, as the population keeps growing.","PeriodicalId":507771,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140418003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods : Retrospective data from 307 patients who underwent ICD implantation for primary prevention from 2011 to 2017 were collected and analyzed. Results : Among the study participants, only 23.8% received the maximum tolerated dose of OMT prior to ICD implantation, with 59.0% receiving all three OMT medication groups. No significant difference in OMT compliance was found between patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and those with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, DCM patients received ICDs more frequently at the time of diagnosis than ICM patients (13.8% vs. 0.7%). Early ICD activation (within 3 months) occurred in only one patient who had not received appropriate OMT, representing 0.7% of all ICM patients. Furthermore, early activation was also infrequent in patients who received OMT (2.9% of ICM patients and 2.6% of DCM patients). Echocardiography follow-up data revealed that 20.4% of ICM patients and 29.8% of DCM patients who did not receive OMT before ICD implantation showed improvement in the left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) to 35% or more. Conclusions : This study found suboptimal compliance with OMT prior to ICD implantation in HFrEF patients. The results showed that early ICD activation was rare in all patient groups, especially those who did not receive the prescribed 3 months of OMT. More research is needed to investigate longer waiting periods for the evaluation of potential EF improvement, and to better evaluate the eligibility of HFrEF patients for ICD. The current findings have potential implications for clinical practice and patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":507771,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140425618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the side effects of these drugs, especially cardiotoxicity, significantly limit their clinical application. The cardiotoxicity associated with anti-tumor drugs has been a subject of extensive attention and research. Traditional to mitigate these side effects have included reducing drug dosages, shortening treatment duration, modifying administration methods, and opting for drugs with lower toxicity. However, either approach may potentially compromise the anti-tumor efficacy of the medications. Therefore, exploring other effective methods for anti-cardiotoxicity will be the focus of future research. The potential of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in managing cardiovascular diseases and cancer treatment has gained widespread recognition. TCM is valued for its minimal side effects, affordability, and accessibility, offering promising avenues in the prevention and treatment of cardiotoxicity caused by anti-tumor drugs. Among its constituents, flavonoids, which are present in many TCMs, are particularly notable. These monomeric compounds with distinct structural components have been shown to possess both cardiovascular protective properties and anti-tumor capabilities. In this discussion, we will delve into the classification of anti-tumor drugs and explore the underlying mechanisms of their associated cardiotoxicity. Additionally, we will examine flavonoids found in TCM and investigate their mechanisms of cardiovascular protection. This will include an analysis of how these natural compounds can mitigate the cardiac side effects of anti-tumor therapies while potentially enhancing overall patient health and treatment outcomes.","PeriodicalId":507771,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140425858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
