New article: "Cardiomyopathy-Associated Hospital Admissions Among Methamphetamine Users: Geographical and Social Disparities" from my lab published in the "Journal of the American College of Cardiology." Methamphetamine is an emerging drug threat. The disparity in cardiomyopathy-associated hospital admissions among methamphetamine users (CAHMA) over the decade remains unknown. CAHMA have increased significantly in the United States. Men, Hispanics, non-Hispanic Asian, age groups 41 to 64 and western regions showed a higher proportional increase highlighting gender-based, racial/ethnic, and regional disparities. https://lnkd.in/g8FqcdeR #Methamphetamine #Hospital #admissions #addiction #cardiovasculardisease #cardiomyopathy #disparities
Congratulations! It's an insightful article that warrants both basic and translational research efforts to investigate ways to mitigate cardiovascular diseases in METH users.
