Infective endocarditis is associated with worse outcomes in stroke: A Thailand National Database Study. (2020)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2020). Infective endocarditis is associated with worse outcomes in stroke: A Thailand National Database Study. International Journal of Clinical Practice, https://doi.org/10.1111/ijcp.13614

BACKGROUND: There is lack of data on the association between infective endocarditis (IE) and outcomes of mortality and complications is stroke. We aimed to compare characteristics and outcomes of stroke patients with and without IE. METHODS: We retro...

26 Distribution of high sensitivity troponin levels in consecutive, unselected patients in the emergency department and relationship to in-hospital mortality (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hinton, J., Mariathas, M., Gabara, L., Nicholas, Z., Allan, R., Ramamoorthy, S., Mamas, M., Mahmoudi, M., Cook, P., & Curzen, N. 26 Distribution of high sensitivity troponin levels in consecutive, unselected patients in the emergency department and relationship to in-hospital mortality. Presented at Abstracts from the British Cardiovascular Society Annual Conference 2020

Introduction The introduction of high-sensitivity troponin assays has facilitated pathways to rapidly exclude myocardial infarction (MI) in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with chest pain. However, hs-cTn concentrations above the...

22 Distribution of high sensitivity troponin taken without conventional clinical indications in critical care patients and its association with critical care mortality (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hinton, J., Augustine, M., Gabara, L., Mariathas, M., Allan, R., Borca, F., Nicholas, Z., Beecham, R., Gillett, N., Kwok, S., Cook, P., Grocott, M., Mamas, M., & Curzen, N. 22 Distribution of high sensitivity troponin taken without conventional clinical indications in critical care patients and its association with critical care mortality. Presented at Abstracts from the British Cardiovascular Society Annual Conference 2020

Background High sensitivity troponin (hs-cTn) concentrations above the manufacturer’s upper limit of normal (ULN) are frequently seen outside the context of MI, particularly in critical care patients. The potential value of hs-cTn as a biomarker for...

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on admission rates for, and management of, acute coronary syndromes in England (2020)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2020). Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on admission rates for, and management of, acute coronary syndromes in England. Lancet, 381-389. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0140-6736%2820%2931356-8

Background
Several countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic have reported a substantial drop in the number of patients attending the emergency department with acute coronary syndromes and a reduced number of cardiac procedures. We aimed to unders... Read More about Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on admission rates for, and management of, acute coronary syndromes in England.

Interstitial lung disease is a risk factor for ischaemic heart disease and myocardial infarction (2020)
Journal Article
Clarson, L. E., Bajpai, R., Whittle, R., Belcher, J., Abdul Sultan, A., Kwok, C. S., Welsh, V., Mamas, M., & Mallen, C. D. (2020). Interstitial lung disease is a risk factor for ischaemic heart disease and myocardial infarction. Heart, 106(12), 916-922. https://doi.org/10.1136/heartjnl-2019-315511

Objectives Despite many shared risk factors and pathophysiological pathways, the risk of ischaemic heart disease (IHD) and myocardial infarction (MI) in interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains poorly understood. This lack of data could be preventing... Read More about Interstitial lung disease is a risk factor for ischaemic heart disease and myocardial infarction.
