Soft drinks and sweetened beverages and the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2016)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2016). Soft drinks and sweetened beverages and the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis. International Journal of Clinical Practice, 791-805. https://doi.org/10.1111/ijcp.12841

Background
Soft drink consumption is associated with adverse health behaviours that predispose to adverse cardiovascular risk factor profiles; however, it is unclear whether their intake independently leads to an increased risk of cardiovascular eve...

The importance of interactions between atrial fibrillation and heart failure (2016)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2016). The importance of interactions between atrial fibrillation and heart failure. Clinical Medicine, 272 -276. https://doi.org/10.7861/clinmedicine.16-3-272

Heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are among the commonest cardiovascular conditions encountered in clinical practice and frequently coexist. Over the last decade, they have evolved into global cardiovascular epidemics. This, in turn, ha... Read More about The importance of interactions between atrial fibrillation and heart failure.

Meta-analysis of the prognostic impact of anemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (2016)
Journal Article
Mamas, & Nolan. (2016). Meta-analysis of the prognostic impact of anemia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. American Journal of Cardiology, 610-620. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.amjcard.2016.05.059

Anemia is common in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and current guidelines fail to offer recommendations for its management. This review aims to examine the relation between baseline anemia and mortality, major adverse c...

A contemporary risk model for predicting 30-day mortality following percutaneous coronary intervention in England and Wales (2016)
Journal Article
Mamas. (2016). A contemporary risk model for predicting 30-day mortality following percutaneous coronary intervention in England and Wales. International Journal of Cardiology, 125-132. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijcard.2016.02.085

Aims: The current risk model for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the UK is based on outcomes of patients who were treated in a different era of interventional cardiology. This study aimed to create a new model, based on a contemporary coh...

Is there a relationship of operator and center volume with access site related outcomes?: an analysis from the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society (2016)
Journal Article
Nolan, & Mamas. (2016). Is there a relationship of operator and center volume with access site related outcomes?: an analysis from the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society. Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, https://doi.org/10.1161/circinterventions.115.003333

Background: Transradial access (TRA) is associated with reduced access site related bleeding complications and mortality post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between access site pra...
