SGLT2i alone or with DPP4 inhibitors prevents hospitalization due to heart failure
Use of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) either alone or in combination with dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitors (DPP4is) reduces the risk of hospitalization from heart failure (HHF), a study has shown. In contrast, thiazolidinediones alone or in combination with DPP4is increases HHF risk, but glucose-lowering can help reduce HHF.

21 Oct 2021Calcifediol may prevent ICU admission, death in COVID-19
Treatment with calcifediol shortly after hospitalization with COVID-19 results in a significant reduction in intensive care unit (ICU) admission and death by more than 50 percent, reveals a study. In addition, baseline 25(OH)D levels is negatively associated with both ICU admission and mortality.

21 Oct 2021Smartwatches reliably detect face touching
Smartwatches, with the support of machine learning algorithms, can perceive face-touching (FT) behaviours and may help contain outbreaks of respiratory infections such as the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), according to a new study.

21 Oct 2021PCI yields short-term mortality gains in STEMI patients receiving dialysis
Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is as good as conservative management in terms of the benefit for in-hospital mortality among ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients receiving maintenance dialysis, a study has found.

21 Oct 2021Rapid COVID-19 testing: Is it as good in kids?
A large retrospective study from the US, presented at IDWeek 2021, has shown that the Abbott ID NOW rapid molecular COVID-19 assay is highly sensitive and specific at detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection in a paediatric population.

20 Oct 2021Chagas disease, COVID-19 coinfection does not worsen outcomes
Patients coinfected with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and Chagas disease are more likely to have cardiovascular comorbidities, but do not seem to suffer from worse in-hospital outcomes, a recent study has found.
