Sex differences in distribution, management and outcomes of combined ischemic-bleeding risk following acute coronary syndrome (2020)
Journal Article
Rashid, & Mamas. (2020). Sex differences in distribution, management and outcomes of combined ischemic-bleeding risk following acute coronary syndrome. International Journal of Cardiology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2020.12.063

Background
Risk factors for further bleeding and ischemic events after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) often overlap. Little is known about sex-based differences in the management and outcomes of ACS patients according to their combined bleeding-ische...

Calcium intake, calcium supplementation and cardiovascular disease and mortality in the British population: EPIC-norfolk prospective cohort study and meta-analysis. (2020)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2020). Calcium intake, calcium supplementation and cardiovascular disease and mortality in the British population: EPIC-norfolk prospective cohort study and meta-analysis. European Journal of Epidemiology, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10654-020-00710-8

The role of dietary calcium in cardiovascular disease prevention is unclear. We aimed to determine the association between calcium intake and incident cardiovascular disease and mortality. Data were extracted from the European Prospective Investigati...

OBJECTIVE: Octogenarians are a high-risk group presenting for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to create a 30-day mortality risk model for octogenarians presenting with both acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and chronic stable angina (C...

The LENT index predicts 30 day outcomes following hospitalization for heart failure (2020)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2020). The LENT index predicts 30 day outcomes following hospitalization for heart failure. ESC Heart Failure, https://doi.org/10.1002/ehf2.13109

AIMS: The LE index (Length of hospitalization plus number of Emergent visits =6 months) predicts 30 day all-cause readmission or death following hospitalization for heart failure (HF). We combined N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)... Read More about The LENT index predicts 30 day outcomes following hospitalization for heart failure.
