Resistance exercise could improve sleep duration, efficiency
Individuals at elevated cardiovascular disease risk (overweight/obese, increased blood pressure levels) may improve the duration and efficiency of their sleep through regular resistance exercise regimens, according to a study presented at the EPI Lifestyle Scientific Sessions 2022.

04 Apr 2022ED patients who do not respond to PDE5I may benefit from topical alprostadil–PDE5i combo
For men with erectile dysfunction (ED) who show a lack of response to oral phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5Is), combination therapy with topical alprostadil plus PDE5Is seems favourable, producing greater improvements in sexual function without compromising safety compared with topical alprostadil alone, as shown in a study.

04 Apr 2022Allo-HSCT recipients at higher risk of metabolic diseases
Rigorous monitoring is necessary among recipients of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for the development of metabolic diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, and cardiovascular disease (CVD), suggests a recent study.

04 Apr 2022FVC decline predicts death in patients with progressive fibrosing ILD
Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) exhibit a similar course of lung injury with those having other forms of progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD), reveals a study, which also shows the association of forced vital capacity (FVC) decline with short-term mortality in this population.
