An oral glucose tolerance test in pregnancy and its association with future cardiovascular diseases

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims/hypothesis Gestational diabetes and abnormal 100‐g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results in pregnancy are associated with type 2 diabetes, but their relationship with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is less clear. We evaluated the risk of CVD according to the number of abnormal OGTT values during pregnancy.

Outcomes of Carotid Endarterectomy with Primary Closure

The International Journal of Frontier Sciences
Background: Cerebrovascular ischemic cases are 3rd leading cause of fatality and neurologic dysfunction in adults. Atherosclerotic lesions outside the carotid cranial circulation are main cause of cerebral ischemia in almost 10-20 percent cases and ...

Liraglutide Ameliorates Injury‐Related Vascular Repair by Activating Autophagy Through Modulation of the PI3K–mTOR Signaling Pathway

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 1, 15 January 2026.
Liraglutide inhibits chronic stress‐induced vascular injury in mice by inhibiting the activation of the PI3K‐mTOR signaling pathway and promoting autophagy of smooth muscle cells or macroautophagy. ABSTRACT Chronic stress is a significant risk factor for postoperative restenosis and other cardiovascular diseases, as it can promote the intimal ...

Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.
