This study aimed to evaluate the risk of various substances in young acute myocardial infarction (AMI) inpatients and analyze patient demographics and hospital outcomes for significant substance use risk factors.We conducted a retrospective analysis of the BACKGROUND
The relationship of marijuana use with coronary heart disease, including prognosis among patients with coronary heart disease, is uncertain.
METHODS
We conducted an inception cohort study of 1913 adults hospitalized with myocardial infarction at 45 US hospitals between 1989 and 1994, with
Many reports of marijuana-associated myocardial infarct (MI) are limited by incomplete evaluation of the toxicologic exposure, a lack of definitive anatomic findings, and the potential for comorbid coronary atherosclerosis inherent in an adult population. We report a 16-year-old adolescent boy who
UNASSIGNED
Marijuana use has been increasingly legalized in the United States resulting in substantial rise in the number of users especially in the younger populations. While our group and others had described various metabolic effects of this drug, little is known about its association with acute
The prevalence of marijuana use is increasing after its legalization in a few states of the United States (US). Smoking marijuana is found to be associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI) immediately after its use. However, knowledge about the impact of marijuana on outcomes
BACKGROUND
Cannabis is the most consumed drug in the world particularly in young adults. Few reports have suggested a causal role of cannabis in the development of cerebral or cardiovascular events. We describe the first association of myocardial infarction and stroke after heavy cannabis
Cannabis smoking is considered the most popular illicit drug used worldwide. We present the case of a 26-year-old male with ST elevation myocardial infarction and heart failure subsequent to cannabis smoking abuse. We searched the literature regarding acute myocardial infarction following cannabis
A 70-year-old man with known coronary artery disease presented with crushing chest pain, diaphoresis, and pallor after consuming a marijuana lollipop; the pain began within 30 minutes of consumption. His troponin T increased from 94 ng/L to 216 ng/L, with slight ST changes but no gross ST
Marijuana is one of the most commonly consumed psychotropic drugs in the world. It has been associated with adverse cardiovascular reactions including acute coronary syndrome, but this information is not widely known among emergency medicine clinicians. This article describes cannabis use as a
Cannabis is the most consumed drug in France, particularly in young adults. Few reports have suggested a causal role of cannabis in the development of cardiovascular events. We describe one case of 26-year-old man, cannabis and tobacco smoker, admitted with recurrent ischemic stroke cause by
The usage of marijuana and its legalization has been growing rapidly, being abused by a wide range of age groups. Its effects on the heart are well known, but coronary artery vasospasm causing ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) from Marijuana alone is rather lesser known. Herein, we report a
The present study was carried out to examine whether acute experimental myocardial infarction affects the sympathetic transmission to vessels and the heart of pithed rats via a presynaptic mechanism and, if so, to check whether inhibitory presynaptic cannabinoid (CB) receptors and endocannabinoids
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a complex disease. Multiple genes and their interaction with various environmental factors influence the pathogenesis of MI that is thought to be tightly regulated by inflammatory pathways. Recent progress in genetic analysis includes the use of large-scale genome-wide
Objective This study determines the trend of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in cannabis users. Demographic characteristics, hospitalization outcomes, and utilization of primary treatment modalities were evaluated in AMI inpatient population. Methods The study used data from the nationwide
Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is rarely caused by coronary artery disease in young patients unless cardiovascular risk factors are present. Although non-atherosclerotic causes of ACS are rare, they need to be considered in
