Radial versus femoral access in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing invasive management : A prespecified subgroup analysis from VALIDATE-SWEDEHEART

AIMS: In the Bivalirudin versus Heparin in ST-Segment and Non-ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Patients on Modern Antiplatelet Therapy in the Swedish Web System for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based Care in Heart Disease Evaluated according to Recommended Therapies Registry Trial (VALIDATE-SWEDEHEART), bivalirudin was not superior to unfractionated heparin in patients with

Bivalirudin versus heparin monotherapy in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

BACKGROUND: The optimal anti-coagulation strategy for patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction treated with percutaneous coronary intervention is unclear in contemporary clinical practice of radial access and potent P2Y12-inhibitors. The aim of this study was to investigate whether bivalirudin was superior to heparin monotherapy in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction w

Imaging of the vulnerable carotid plaque : Role of imaging techniques and a research agenda

OBJECTIVES: Atherothrombosis in the carotid arteries is a main cause of ischemic stroke and may depend on plaque propensity to complicate with rupture or erosion, in turn related to vulnerability features amenable to in vivo imaging. This would provide an opportunity for risk stratification and-potentially-local treatment of more vulnerable plaques. We here review current information on this topic

Tau pathology and relative cerebral blood flow are independently associated with cognition in Alzheimer’s disease

Purpose: We aimed to investigate associations between tau pathology and relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF), and their relationship with cognition in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), by using a single dynamic [18F]flortaucipir positron emission tomography (PET) scan. Methods: Seventy-one subjects with AD (66 ± 8 years, mini-mental state examination (MMSE) 23 ± 4) underwent a dynamic 130-min [18F]flortauc

Don’t do it again! The Swedish experience with negative central bank rates in 2015-2019

Negative interest rates were once seen as impossible outside the realm of economic theory. However, recently several central banks have imposed such rates, with prominent economists supporting this move. This column investigates the actual effects of negative interest rates, taking evidence from the Swedish experience during 2015-2019. It is evident that the policy’s effect on the inflation rate w

Secondary Nucleation in Amyloid Formation

Research into Alzheimer's disease is still hampered by a lack of fundamental understanding of the underlying mechanisms. While the aggregation of the amyloid β peptide (Aβ) into amyloid fibrils is highly implicated as a key factor in the disease, the molecular nature of its involvement has proven complex and elusive. This thesis and the work herein is part of an ongoing effort to map out the aggre
