Item type:Publication, Influence of renal function on blood pressure control and outcome in thrombolyzed patients after acute ischemic stroke: post-hoc analysis of the ENCHANTED trial(Frontiers Media SA, 2024-12-09) ;Xinwen Ren ;Chen Chen ;Xia Wang ;Qiang LiYang Zhao<jats:sec><jats:title>Background</jats:title><jats:p>The effect of renal impairment in patients who receive intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is unclear. We aimed to determine the associations of renal impairment and clinical outcomes and any modification of the effect of intensive versus guideline-recommended blood pressure (BP) control in the BP arm of the International Enhanced Control of Hypertension and Thrombolysis Stroke Study (ENCHANTED).</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p>We conducted a <jats:italic>post-hoc</jats:italic> analysis of the ENCHANTED BP arm, which involved 2,196 thrombolyzed AIS patients. Logistic regression models were used to define the association between eGFR and clinical outcomes of death, death or major disability [modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores 3–6], and major disability (mRS 3–5) at 90 days.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>Of the 2,151 patients with available baseline renal function data (mean age 66.9 years; 38% women), 993 (46.2%), 822 (38.2%), and 336 (15.6%) had normal (eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>), mildly (60–89), and moderate-to-severely impaired (&lt;60) renal function, respectively. Compared with patients with normal eGFR, mortality was higher in those with moderate-to-severe renal impairment (adjusted odds ratio 1.77, 95% confidence interval 1.05–2.99; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.031 for trend). However, the difference in death or major disability (mRS 3–6) was not significant between groups.

Renal function does not modify the effect of early intensive BP-lowering treatment on death in this patient group.</jats:p></jats:sec>2 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Sleep duration and risk of cardiovascular events: The SAVE study(2020) ;Jingwei Li ;Danni Zheng ;Kelly A Loffler ;Xia WangR Doug McEvoy<jats:sec><jats:title>Background and aim</jats:title><jats:p> Controversy exists regarding cardiovascular risk in relation to sleep duration. We determined sleep duration and major recurrent cardiovascular event associations in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea and established cardiovascular disease. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p> Secondary analyses of the international, multicenter, Sleep Apnea Cardiovascular Endpoints trial. Sleep duration was estimated from overnight home oximetry (ApneaLink monitor) used for obstructive sleep apnoea diagnosis. Cox proportional hazards models were used to determine associations of categorized sleep duration (<6 h, 6–8 h (reference), and >8 h) and major cardiovascular outcomes: primary composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and any hospitalization for unstable angina, heart failure, or transient ischemic attack; secondary composite of cardiac and cerebral (stroke/transient ischemic attack) events. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> Oximetry-derived sleep duration estimates were available in 2687 participants (mean 61.2 years, 80.9% males) who experienced a total of 436 cardiovascular events over a mean follow-up of 3.7 years. Compared to the reference category, sleep duration was not associated with risk of the primary composite cardiovascular outcome (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.00, 95% confidence interval 0.76–1.33, and HR 1.22, 95% confidence interval 0.98–1.52, for sleep duration <6 and >8 h, respectively). However, long sleep was associated with increased cerebral events (HR 1.67, 95% confidence interval 1.17–2.39; P = 0.005) and stroke alone (HR 1.79, 95% confidence interval 1.22–2.63; P = 0.003). </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p> Long sleep duration is associated with an increased risk of stroke but not cardiac events in obstructive sleep apnoea patients with existing cardiovascular disease. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical trial registration</jats:title><jats:p> The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00738179). </jats:p></jats:sec>8Scopus© Citations 27
