Combination of thiazide and loop diuretics for the treatment of acute heart failure
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a serious condition with a high mortality rate. It is considered as the most common cause of unplanned hospitalizations in the elderly population. In 90% of all cases AHF presents with congestive symptoms, thus mostly treated

Older age, atrial fibrillation, loop diuretic use, and higher eGFR variability predicted early eGFR dip. Continued SGLT2 inhibitor therapy preserved long‐term kidney function, although closer monitoring is warranted in patients receiving loop diuretics. ABSTRACT Aim To assess the prevalence, risk factors, estimated glomerular filtration rate trajectory,

Genomic Evidence on Antihypertensive Drug Targets and Oral Disease Outcomes
Key Findings Drug‐target Mendelian randomization showed little evidence that genetically proxied on‐target pharmacological actions of most antihypertensive drug classes were associated with chronic periodontitis or dental caries. The diazoxide–periodontitis association requires cautious interpretation, given possible residual pleiotropy at KCNJ11 and ...

Loop diuretics are prevailing drugs to manage fluid overload in heart failure. However, adjusting to loop diuretic doses is strenuous due to the lack of a diuretic guideline.

ABSTRACT Women with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) report more severe functional impairments than men, despite lower apnoea‐hypopnoea index (AHI) values. This raises questions about the adequacy of AHI for capturing OSA severity. We explored sex differences in functional outcomes in OSA patients and examined whether AHI or hypoxic burden (HB) better ...

ABSTRACT Background The role of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) during hospitalization for heart failure (HFH) is uncertain, because hospitalized patients were routinely excluded from landmark CRT trials. Despite this, CRT implantation during HFH is common.

Abstract The antihypertensive mechanism of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has been traditionally attributed to osmotic diuresis. However, emerging evidence reveals multifaceted mechanisms beyond diuresis, including regulation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system suppression, ion homeostasis ...

Born early, age fast: Consequences of premature birth on chronic disease and accelerated ageing
Abstract figure legend ELGANs are exposed to several postnatal pro‐oxidant stressors, including ambient and supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, infections, hyperalimentation, excessive glucocorticoids and intermittent hypoxia. Since endogenous antioxidant defences are underdeveloped, this imbalance promotes oxidative stress and inflammation ...

The Paradox of Hypertonic Saline Infusion for Patients with Heart Failure
Background: Fluid/sodium overload is the primary reason for hospital admission for patients with acute decompensated heart failure. Unfortunately, congestion often remains undertreated and is associated with significant adverse outcomes in ...
