Causes of death among veterans with alcohol use disorder‐related conditions: A 5‐year follow‐up study of Veterans Health Administration hospitalizations

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alcohol use disorder‐related (AUD) diagnoses are common among hospitalized Veterans. Our prior research found that the presence of any AUD‐related diagnosis during hospital admission is associated with a 30% 5‐year mortality rate. Objective To compare demographics and causes of death between hospitalized patients within the Veterans

Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐
