Resuscitation after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest should not be administered using a one-size-fits-all approach, especially when treating older patients, according to an editorial in 

Findings from a DCRI-led study recently published in JAMA Internal Medicine suggest new prognostic implications for patients who have abnormal exercise electrocardiography (ECG) but normal stress echocardiography (Echo) results. In clinical practice, exercise ECG is combined with stress Echo imaging for the evaluation of coronary artery disease. Although it is not uncommon for patients to have discordant results (abnormal ECGs and normal Echos), it was previously unclear whether this had any prognostic significance for these patients. An observational study led by DCRI’s Melissa Daubert, MD, sought to answer this question.

Two DCRI researchers contributed to a study that points to a potential early warning sign for increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

A recent study led by the DCRI leveraged real-world data to shed new light on resuscitation for patients on maintenance dialysis when they experience in-hospital cardiac arrest.

Evidence from a recently completed DCRI-led clinical trial supports the hypothesis that an investigational digital therapeutic may be an effective treatment for children with ADHD.

The EXSCEL trial, which explored the impact of exenatide on major cardiovascular events in patients with Type 2 diabetes, has also published nearly a dozen secondary manuscripts on a range of topic

The observational study found that amongst acute ischemic stroke patients treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator, patients who had experienced a previous stroke within the past two w

A new analysis from the DCRI showed that 35 percent of direct costs related to musculoskeletal pain were attributable to about 4 percent of patients who were persistent high-cost utilizers.

The survey focused on invasive cardiac care and measured patient knowledge, goals, and concerns related to these procedures.

Study results recently published in Neuropsychopharmacology indicate that young adults with ADHD are at higher risk of becoming addicted to nicotine after even the first exposure to the substance. The study included 136 non-smokers between ages 18 to 25, about half of whom had a clinical diagnosis of ADHD. Participants were administered two different doses of nicotine and a placebo.
