Arterite de takayasu complicada com dissecção de aorta como apresentação primária de atividade da doença
Takayasu arteritis complicated with aortic dissection as the primary presentation of disease activity

Arq. bras. cardiol; 121 (9 supl.1), 2024
INTRODUÇÃO: A arterite de Takayasu é uma vasculite de grandes vasos, crônica, granulomatosa, mais comum no adulto. É caracterizada por estenose, oclusão e aneurisma da aorta e seus principais ramos. A apresentação clínica pode variar, sendo mais comum a forma mais insidiosa, com sintomas como fe...

Trombose arterial coronariana recorrente associado a aneurisma de artéria coronária: uma apresentação rara da síndrome antifosfolípide
Recurrent coronary artery thrombosis associated with coronary artery aneurysm: a rare presentation of antiphospholipid syndrome

Arq. bras. cardiol; 121 (9 supl.1), 2024
INTRODUÇÃO: A síndrome antifosfolípide (SAF) é uma doença autoimune que promove morbidade gestacional, além de fenômenos trombóticos. Pacientes com essa condição estão mais suscetíveis a apresentar aterosclerose acelerada, infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM) e acidente vascular cerebral. Pacie...

Padrão de realce tardio não descrito na cardiomiopatia hipertrófica: subendocárdico circunferencial
Delayed enhancement pattern not described in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: circumferential subendocardial

Arq. bras. cardiol; 121 (9 supl.1), 2024
INTRODUÇÃO: Na cardiomiopatia hipertrófica (CMH) o achado mais típico na ressonância magnética é o realce tardio do mesocárdico, localizado principalmente na parede inferosseptal. Este realce não está presente em todos os casos e ocorre preferencialmente em paredes onde há maior hipertrofia. A...

Análise comparativa do desfecho entre pacientes com minoca e infarto agudo do miocárdio tipo 1
Comparative analysis of the outcome between patients with minoca and type 1 acute myocardial infarction

INTRODUÇÃO: A entidade MINOCA (do inglês: myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries) vem sendo tema de diversos estudos desde que o termo foi usado pela primeira vez, em 2013. Trata-se de um infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM), sem evidência de obstruções coronarianas epicárdicas ...

Tobacco use and risk of acute stroke in 32 countries in the INTERSTROKE study: a case–control study

eClinicalMedicine; 70 (), 2024
BACKGROUND Smoking is a major risk factor for the global burden of stroke. We have previously reported a global population attributable risk (PAR) of stroke of 12.4% associated with current smoking. In this study we aimed to explore the association of current tobacco use with different types of tobacco e...

Variations in the prevalence of atrial fibrillation, and in the strength of its association with ischemic stroke, in countries with different income levels: INTERSTROKE case-control study

Int. j. stroke; (), 2024
BACKGROUND: The contribution of atrial fibrillation (AF) to the etiology and burden of stroke may vary by country income level. AIMS: We examined differences in the prevalence of AF and described variations in the magnitude of the association between AF and ischemic stroke by country income level. METHOD...

Definition and reporting of composite outcomes are often inadequate in randomized clinical trials on pharmacological interventions for coronary artery disease

J. clin. epidemiol; 165 (), 2024
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the frequency and critically appraise the use and reporting of composite outcomes in randomized clinical trials on pharmacological interventions for coronary artery disease. DESIGN: A meta-research study. A search strategy was developed to retrieve references from MEDLINE. We consi...

Reduced left atrial strain and risk of ischemic stroke in patients with normal sinus rhythm: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Circulation; 148 (Suppl.1), 2023
INTRODUCTION: Abnormalities in the left atrium have been linked to a higher risk of ischemic cerebrovascular events. Left atrial (LA) strain analysis can identify LA dysfunction, even in patients with normal LA volumes. However, the precise association between LA strain and the occurrence of ischemic str...

Long-term outcomes of second-generation drug-eluting stents versus coronary artery bypass graft: a sistematic review and meta-analysis

Circulation; 148 (Suppl.1), 2023
INTRODUCTION: Long-term data is limited on the comparative outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with second-generation drug-eluting stents (S-DES) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Hypothesis: Our aim was to conduct a systematic...

P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy versus dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing coronary stenting: rationale and design of the NEOMINDSET Trial

EuroIntervention; 19 (4), 2023
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is currently the standard of care after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Recent studies suggest that reducing DAPT to 1-3 months followed by an aspirin-free single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) strategy with a potent P2Y12 inhibitor is safe and associated with less...
