Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a common problem for older adults, leading to communication difficulties, isolation, and cognitive decline. Recently, hearing loss has been identified as potentially the most modifiable risk factor for dementia. Listening in challenging situations, or when the auditory system is damaged, strains cortical resources, and this may change how the brain responds to cognitively demanding situations more generally. We review the effects of ARHL on brain areas involved in speech perception, from the auditory cortex, through attentional networks, to the motor system. We explore current perspectives on the possible causal relationship between hearing loss, neural reorganisation, and cognitive impairment. Through this synthesis we aim to inspire innovative research and novel interventions for alleviating hearing loss and cognitive decline. Patients with chronic diseases create their own subjective beliefs about their conditions based on their illness perceptions. In the common-sense model, illness perceptions constitute personal beliefs about illness with regard to five components identity, timeline, cause, control/cure, and consequences. Patients' illness perceptions affect both their management of their disease and their adherence to treatment. Since patients with peripheral arterial disease need life-long treatment for secondary prevention, generating knowledge about illness perceptions in patients with peripheral arterial disease is essential. To systematically review and synthesise the literature on illness perceptions in patients with peripheral arterial disease. A systematic review DATA SOURCES PubMed, CINAHL, and PsycINFO. A systematic search strategy was conducted in December 2017, with an update in July 2019. Two team members independently screened all titles and abstracts. A relevance and quality appraisal of the studies was erceived disease progression and decreasing control to be consequences of their illness. Living with the disease, the emphasis in the additional component, was a process for regaining control and adapting to their situations. Patients with peripheral arterial disease shape their own understandings of their conditions. These beliefs may influence their management of their disease and adherence to treatment. Therefore, the current study suggests that illness perceptions should be addressed when planning secondary prevention for patients with peripheral arterial disease.

To determine the prevalence of cerebrovascular events (CVE) in giant cell arteritis (GCA) and to alert clinicians to the importance of early detection of CVE in this disease. Retrospective observational study involving a cohort of GCA patients. Demographic, clinical and laboratory data were collected. All patients fulfilled the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 1990 GCA classification criteria and had a positive ultrasound test for GCA in agreement with the EULAR recommendations. Demographic and clinical parameters were recorded with special attention paid to ischemic cranial events. We studied 123 consecutive GCA patients, 74 (60.2%) women with a mean age of 79 years. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/inx-315.html Twelve patients (9.75%) suffered from neurologic symptoms other than AION, of whom 9 (7.3%) experienced ischemic events related to GCA and 3 (2.44%) likely experienced CVE due to other common causes. Of the 9 patients with CVE caused by GCA, 5 were diagnosed with transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), 2 with ischemic stroke, and 2 were cases involving cranial nerve palsies. High rates of mortality were found in patients with a TIA or stroke, while polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) appeared to confer some protection against ischemic pathologies in GCA patients. Stroke and TIA are common presentation patterns associated with GCA and should be suspected in all CVE-related cases with high acute-phase reactants commonly present in the elderly. This ischemic subgroup exhibited a higher mortality rate.

This ischemic subgroup exhibited a higher mortality rate. Statin therapy has become one of the most important advances in stroke secondary prevention. Nevertheless, statin therapy in patients who present an ischemic stroke following cervical artery dissection (CAD) has not yet been supported by clinical evidence. This study aimed to investigate the effect of statins on neurological outcomes after a stroke due to CAD. We conducted a prospective cohort study including consecutive patients diagnosed with a stroke due to CAD. Subjects were classified into non-statin, simvastatin 20mg, simvastatin 40mg, and high-potency statin groups. After 2 years, the functional outcome, stroke recurrence, major cardiovascular events, and mortality were assessed. Among the 54 patients included in our cohort, there were 16 (29.6%) patients without statins, 22 (40.7%) with simvastatin 20mg, 12 (22.2%) with simvastatin 40mg and 4 (7.5%) with high-potency statins. Using simvastatin 40mg was associated with a significantly lower incidence of stroke recurrence. Patients with simvastatin 40mg and high-potency statins presented the best functional recovery throughout the follow-up (p<.01). The use of statins in patients with CAD-related stroke may improve functional outcomes in specific cases. Statins do not prevent stroke recurrence and major cardiovascular events in this type of stroke.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the main causes of primary glomerulonephritis worldwide, and it is also the main primary disease leading to chronic kidney disease. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the epidemiology and risk factors for progression in Chinese patients with IgAN. In this retrospective study, 246 patients with renal biopsy-proven IgAN were enrolled from January 2012 to June 2018. The patients' data were divided into two groups according to eGFR at the end of follow-up a high-eGFR group (eGFR≥60ml/min) and a low-eGFR group (eGFR<60ml/min). At the end of the study, we identified 49 (19.92%) patients with low-eGFR from 246 IgAN patients. Renal function, represented by serum creatinine, urea nitrogen and cystatin-C, was significantly decreased in the low-eGFR group (P<0.001 for all) at the time of renal biopsy. Compared with the high-eGFR group, the age, mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), proteinuria, cholesterol, triglycerides and serum uric acid were significantly higher (P<0.
