Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Premium Intraocular Lens Selection in Patients With Glaucoma: A Clinical Review

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaucoma frequently coexists with cataract, but glaucomatous functional loss, ocular‐surface disease, anatomical abnormalities, and treatment‐related refractive variability may reduce tolerance of premium intraocular lenses. This narrative review critically appraises evidence relevant to lens selection in glaucoma. Central visual‐field status,
