ABSTRACT Aims To assess the feasibility of a decentralised response‐guided trial and to characterise urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (UACR) responses to empagliflozin and finerenone in type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Materials and Methods Adults with type 2 diabetes, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 25 mL/min/1.73 m2,

Obesity and hypertension co‐exist and share molecular mechanisms in terms of dietary therapy, modulated by food bioactive constituents. ABSTRACT Obesity and hypertension are among the most pressing global public health challenges. They frequently co‐exist, with obesity‐related hypertension accounting for an estimated 75% of the hypertension burden ...

This narrative review analyzes DENV molecular targets, including structural proteins (C, prM/M, E), non‐structural components (NS1NS5), and host factors, alongside small‐molecule candidates in preclinical and clinical phases. Owing to high structural conservation, the NS2B‐NS3 protease and NS5 (RdRp/MTase) remain primary drug discovery focuses, while ...

Reducing Cardiovascular Risk in Patients following MI with Eplerenone
Background In the event of an MI, the presence of LV systolic dysfunction with or without heart failure is associated with a poorer prognosis. Elevation of aldosterone levels also results in a poor prognosis after an MI.

Urine electrolytes guide treatment of Gitelman syndrome and recurrent syncope—A case report
Abstract Syncope is a common reason for inpatient admission. Few case studies describe an association between syncope and Gitelman syndrome (GS). Herein, we present a case of a woman with hypokalemia and recurrent syncope which eventually led to a diagnosis of GS. A physiologic approach to urine electrolyte interpretation informed clinical decisions to
