AS1842856 reduces intracellular levels of GSK3α/β by binding to them and promoting their exocytosis. This reduction leads to diminished GSK3β‐mediated activation of NF‐κB, resulting in decreased transcription of PLA2G4A and reduced lysosomal damage. Ultimately, this enhances lysosomal degradation of Aβ, lowering Aβ load in APP/PS1 mice.

In a real‐world emergency department study of atrial fibrillation and flutter, cardioversion restored sinus rhythm in 68% of patients. Electrical cardioversion achieved the highest success, while pharmacological and mixed strategies predicted failure. Complications were infrequent but clinically significant.

Angiotensin Receptor-Neprilysin Inhibition.
The novel combination sacubitril/valsartan represents a new therapeutic approach in the management of heart failure. With the simultaneous blockage of the enzyme neprilysin (by sacubitril) and angiotensin II receptors (by valsartan), this combination reduces the degradation of natriuretic peptides and other counterregulatory peptide systems while ...

Among recipients of ICDs/CRT‐Ds, the proportion of non‐ischemic cardiomyopathy is more than 60% in Japan. Despite recent concerns about primary prevention ICD/CRT‐D implantation for non‐ischemic patients with HFrEF in guideline‐directed medical therapy, ICD/CRT‐D therapy is likely effective in reducing the slope of the relationship between all‐cause ...

ABSTRACT Sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) has emerged as an effective compound with myocardium‐protective functions in experimental and clinical trials for heart failure. This study investigated the function of Sac/Val in hypertensive heart disease (HHD) and explored the underlying mechanism.

Antihypertensive medications and risk of Alzheimer's disease: Evidence for specific medication use
Abstract BACKGROUND Hypertension is a modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Specific antihypertensive classes may lower/increase AD risk by affecting the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system. METHODS We investigated AD risk in relation to antihypertensive medications in a population‐based study of 33,714 incident AD cases and 897,872 ...

Background and Purpose Novel heart failure (HF) pharmacotherapies, including angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is), may confer cardiovascular benefits by attenuating myocardial fibrosis. However, direct evidence from human failing myocardial samples is limited.

Abstract Aim Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) presents a therapeutic challenge, characterised by a paucity of validated treatments. Emerging data suggest that targeting adiposity is central to HFpEF pathogenesis. We conducted an updated network meta‐analysis to compare the efficacy of emerging and established HFpEF therapies ...

The present study shows how 2D‐speckle tracking echocardiographic measures of myocardial rotational mechanics provide valuable information about the LVEF spectrum in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. The primary outcome of interest is that rotational gradient (RG) is closely linked to global longitudinal strain (GLS).
