Bempedoic acid shows long-term efficacy, safety

12 May 2022

In patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, continued treatment with bempedoic acid for up to 2.5 years effectively keeps levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) low, while also being generally well-tolerated, according to the results of a phase 3, open-label extension (OLE) study.

Infertility liked to higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

11 May 2022

Women with a history of infertility have a moderately higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) compared with those who have no such history, with the risk more pronounced among nulliparous infertile women who have or have not experienced a pregnancy loss, according to a study.

Supplemental calcium may do more harm than good in older patients with aortic stenosis

10 May 2022

For elderly patients with mild-moderate aortic stenosis, calcium supplementation with or without vitamin D may lead to unfavourable outcomes, such as lower survival and increased risk of aortic valve replacement, according to a study.

Early neurosurgery tied to better survival in spontaneous haemorrhagic stroke

09 May 2022

Neurosurgery performed 2–4 hours after presenting to the emergency department (ED) seems to result in better survival outcomes in patients with spontaneous haemorrhagic stroke, reports a recent study.

Breast arterial calcification may indicate CVD risk in postmenopausal women

09 May 2022 by

Breast arterial calcification (BAC), as viewed on screening mammograms, may suggest a risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in postmenopausal women, a recent US-based study showed.

Treatment with sacubitril/valsartan appears to improve right ventricular performance and pulmonary hypertension among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), independent of the reverse remodelling of the left ventricle, as reported in a study.

Cardiorespiratory fitness offsets aggravating effect of inflammation on sudden cardiac death

06 May 2022

Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and inflammation are both independently linked to sudden cardiac death (SCD) in middle-aged men, reports a recent study. However, better CRF seems to offset the impact of inflammation on SCD risk.
