Circulating IL-17A predicts CVD in early RA

29 Aug 2024

Circulating interleukin (IL)-17A in patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD), independent of traditional CVD risk factors and of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) at the time of diagnosis, suggests a study.

Rivaroxaban eases ischaemic events, ups bleeding in frail patients after revascularization

28 Aug 2024 bởi

The risks of ischaemic complications and bleeding are higher among patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who meet the frailty criteria after lower extremity revascularization in the VOYAGER PAD study. Regardless of frailty status, use of rivaroxaban lowers the ischaemic risk and increases bleeding.
