Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are major causes of morbidity and mortality in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Contemporary CKD guidelines increasingly support incorporation of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) as an additional pillar of cardiorenal therapy alongside renin–angiotensin ...

Cold septic shock: recognising the low‐output phenotype
Abstract Septic shock is commonly taught as a warm, vasodilated state, but the cold, low‐output phenotype, in which the underlying process is still sepsis but cardiac output is low and vascular resistance high, is under‐recognised. Escalating vasopressors alone in these patients support the blood pressure while leaving the low output untreated.

In anticoagulated atrial fibrillation, residual ischemic stroke risk persists despite guideline‐directed therapy. In this single‐center cohort, an enlarged index outpatient left atrial diameter independently predicted stroke and improved risk stratification when added to CHA2DS2‐VA (CHA2DS2‐VALa), supporting a simple, clinically implementable ...

The study examines 76 patients of the German multicenter study COGIA with suspected BrS in 12 centers in Germany. Thirty‐nine patients met the current ESC diagnostic criteria, 34 of whom met the Shanghai Score criteria. Four major arrhythmic events (ACA, SCD, appropriate ICD shock) occurred in the cohort (5.3%), all in the group of patients fulfilling ...
