Thyroid hormones help predict cardiogenic shock risk in STEMI patients post-PCI

13 Mar 2022

Free triiodothyronine (FT3) and free thyroxine (FT4) independently predict in-hospital cardiogenic shock (CS) incidence among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), reports a recent study.

Empagliflozin lowers blood pressure in T2D

12 Mar 2022

Among hypertensives with type 2 diabetes (T2D), treatment with the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor empagliflozin produces clinically meaningful reductions in blood pressure, reports a recent study.

Magnesium supplementation confers no cardiovascular benefit

10 Mar 2022

Supplementation with oral magnesium for 24 weeks hardly produces any change in arterial stiffness or blood pressure (BP), as do magnesium oxide and magnesium sulphate, as shown in a study.

Prostate cancer ADT linked to worsening metabolic profile

10 Mar 2022 by

Chinese patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer are exposed to increased risk of new-onset diabetes mellitus (DM), hyperlipidaemia and hypertension (HTN), as well as a higher likelihood of step-up pharmacotherapy for these pre-existing conditions, according to a prospective multicentre cohort study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Tuen Mun Hospital.

Novel filter device safe to use in patients undergoing TAVI

09 Mar 2022 by

A novel dual-filter device called the SENTINEL cerebral protection system (CPS) has been safely deployed in 95 percent of patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with 100-percent procedural success, according to a Singapore study. No filter-related complications, stroke, or mortality has occurred at 30 days.

Significant BP elevation predicts response to VEGF inhibitors

08 Mar 2022

A significant increase in blood pressure (BP) appears predictive of therapeutic response to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors but does not limit treatment duration even in patients with severe elevations, suggests a study.

Plasma bile acid levels linked to cardiometabolic risk factors in young adults

08 Mar 2022 by

Plasma levels of bile acids (BA) appear to be dependent on sex and correlate with cardiometabolic and inflammatory risk factors in young and relatively healthy adults, according to a study.
