ABSTRACT Aims Diabetes poses a growing global health burden. This study investigated the causal effects of lifestyle and socioeconomic factors on diabetes risk and related complications and comorbidities. Materials and Methods We applied two‐sample univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization to assess the causal impact of 26 lifestyle and ...

Graphical abstract illustrating the study design, physiological rationale, and key findings of the D‐PATH trial. Dapagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, lowers HbA1c and body weight while increasing hematocrit and erythropoietin levels. Although an elevated hematocrit could theoretically increase blood viscosity and impair microcirculatory flow, ex vivo ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims It is appreciated that current screening tools for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) often fail to detect early disease. Sudomotor (sweat gland) dysfunction, among the earliest manifestations of DPN, can be measured objectively by the SUDOSCAN® device. We compared SUDOSCAN® with conventional validated screening (Michigan

Brain pathology in relation to somatic diseases: Exploring the body–brain crosstalk
Abstract Several somatic diseases have been consistently linked with an increased dementia risk. However, the underlying neuropathological substrates remain poorly characterized. This narrative review aims to summarize evidence on the association between common age‐related somatic conditions (i.e., heart diseases, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease, liver

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Myocardial Parameters for Detecting Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction
Myocardial ischemia, a hallmark of coronary artery disease (CAD), is not always caused by the narrowing or blockage of the epicardial coronary arteries. In many patients, coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) plays a pivotal role.

AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Abstract Central arterial stiffening, particularly of the proximal aorta, is increasingly recognised as a pivotal contributor to cardiovascular disease, dementia, and mild cognitive impairment. Loss of Windkessel function amplifies pulsatile pressure, reduces diastolic perfusion and accelerates microvascular damage in the brain.

Acute cardiovascular changes following heat exposure during simulated shipboard firefighting
Abstract Like structural firefighting, shipboard firefighting requires extreme exertion. However, shipboard firefighting may be a unique cardiovascular stress as most sailors lack extensive firefighting experience and may complete significant work before reaching the fire scene.
