CONCLUSIONS: Among patients undergoing EVT for large vessel occlusion stroke in Denmark, women with AF had higher odds of good functional outcome and men with AF showed higher successful reperfusion rates with advancing age. Safety and mortality outcomes were similar across groups with AF. These findings suggest age-and sex-specific influences on EVT outcomes associated with AF.

CONCLUSION: With increasing use of ADT and ARPIs and the high burden of cardiovascular comorbidities in Indian men with PCa, proactive cardiovascular risk assessment, individualized treatment selection, and coordinated multidisciplinary management are essential. This expert consensus provides actionable, India-specific guidance to balance oncologic efficacy with cardiovascular safety and improve long-term outcomes and quality of life for patients.

CONCLUSIONS: In contemporary practice, EST is underused before elective CAG, particularly in women. Underuse of EST may contribute to incomplete ischemic assessment and under-recognition of alternative ischemic mechanisms, emphasizing the need for improved pre-CAG evaluation strategies.

Major disease diagnoses can create shocks that ripple through households. Population-level evidence in the U.S. on how spouses and partners fare after a partner’s major diagnosis remains sparse and is often limited to caregivers or employment-related outcomes. Using the U.S. Health and Retirement Study (1992-2020), we evaluated population-level health spillovers to spouses after a partner’s first diagnosis of cancer, stroke, or heart disease, using a stacked event-study design with matching (n =…

CONCLUSIONS: In this sample of sexual and gender minority adults, the significant differences in the prevalence of unfavorable LE8 component scores between groups highlight the importance of population-specific interventions in future research.

CONCLUSION: In this population-based cohort of older men with castration-resistant prostate cancer, treatment with oral androgen receptor pathway inhibitors was associated with lower estimated risks of all-cause and prostate cancer-specific mortality compared with chemotherapy in patients with and without pre-existing CVD. These findings add real-world comparative effectiveness evidence for patient populations not well represented in randomized clinical trials; however, given the observational…

BACKGROUND: Whether differences in sex hormones influence cancer risk in men remains uncertain. We aimed to clarify the association of circulating testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), and related hormones with risks of cancer death, incident cancer, and incident prostate cancer by means of individual participant data (IPD) meta-analyses.

CONCLUSION: Future public health research, practice, and policy on incarceration andhealth need to include an intersectional analysis of racism, sexism, and ageism.

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this cross-sectional study of US Hispanic/Latino adults, VI and CVD risk factor prevalence varied by ethnic background, and diabetes and cumulative CVD risk factors were associated with VI. The findings provide updated prevalence estimates and support the need for longitudinal studies of causal relationships between VI and CVD risk factors.

CONCLUSIONS: Global T2DM prevalence reflects the interaction of biological, social, and health system processes rather than incidence alone. Prevalence trajectories must be interpreted in light of surveillance limitations, diagnostic context, and within-disease heterogeneity. Addressing future burden requires combining improved detection and chronic-care capacity with upstream, life-course-oriented prevention strategies.
