Characteristics of socially isolated patients with coronary artery disease who are at elevated risk for mortality.

TL;DR: Patients with small social networks had an elevated risk of mortality, but this greater risk was not attributable to confounding with disease severity, demographics, or psychological distress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of medical resources and quality of life after acute myocardial infarction in Canada and the United States.

TL;DR: The Canadian patients had more cardiac symptoms and worse functional status one year after acute myocardial infarction than the U.S. patients, and it is suggested that the more aggressive pattern of care in the United States may have been responsible for the better quality of life.

Cost-Effectiveness of Defibrillator Therapy or Amiodarone in Chronic Stable Heart Failure Results From the Sudden Cardiac Death in Heart Failure Trial (SCD-HeFT)

TL;DR: Prophylactic use of single-lead, shock-only I CD therapy is economically attractive in patients with stable, moderately symptomatic heart failure with an ejection fraction ≤35%, particularly those in NYHA class II, as long as the benefits of ICD therapy observed in the SCD-HeFT persist for at least 8 years.
