Comparative cardiovascular risk of sulfonylureas with low‐ and high‐affinities for cardiac mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate‐sensitive potassium channels versus dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors in patients with type 2 diabetes: A cohort study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To individually evaluate the cardiovascular safety of low‐ and high‐affinity cardiac mitochondrial ATP‐sensitive potassium (mitoKATP) channel sulfonylureas by comparing each to dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors (DPP‐4i), a generally cardiovascular‐neutral comparator, given prior evidence suggesting greater cardiovascular risk with high ...

Intensive versus standard dose statin therapy: the costs and benefits for patients with acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

Introduction: Recent NICE guidance in England and Wales states that statin therapy for secondary CVD should "usually be initiated with a drug with a low acquisition cost (taking into account required daily dose and product price per dose)".

PCSK9 and coronary atherosclerosis progression beyond LDL‐cholesterol in coronary artery disease patients

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
In a population of patients with stable CAD, circulating levels of PCSK9 are independently associated with the progression of adverse coronary plaque phenotypes, as assessed by serial coronary computed tomography angiography. At RNA‐seq analysis of whole blood, PCSK9 was linked to the expression of genes involved in the innate‐immune response.

Educational level, clinical outcomes and quality of care in a Swiss cohort of patients with acute coronary syndromes

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Despite universal healthcare in Switzerland, disparities in post‐acute coronary syndrome (ACS) care persist across educational levels. In a cohort of 6040 patients, those with the lowest education had more cardiovascular risk factors and were less likely to attend cardiac rehabilitation or receive cardiology follow‐up.

Cardiovascular Biomarkers in Nocturnal Hemodialysis and Their Association With Physical Performance

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The cardiovascular biomarkers troponin T, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide, and fibroblast growth factor 23 are elevated in hemodialysis patients and associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality risk. Nocturnal hemodialysis improves the fluid status in hemodialysis patients.

Colchicine and cardiovascular events: An updated meta‐analysis of published randomized controlled trials

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Colchicine shows promise in reducing cardiovascular risk, but a recent study raised the question whether this is really the case. We conducted a meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess its impact on cardiovascular outcomes in secondary prevention.

Severe Periodontitis is Associated With Recurrent Cardiovascular Events—A 10‐Year Longitudinal Cohort Study

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
One thousand and two patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) were observed over 10 years. Data were collected from 792 study participants. Severe periodontitis proved to be an independent risk factor for new cardiovascular events. Tooth brushing more than once a day and performing interdental hygiene were associated with decreased risk.
