Impact of diabetes mellitus on right ventricular dysfunction and ventricular interdependence in hypertensive patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction assessed via 3.0 T cardiac MRI

Cardiovascular Diabetology

Hypertension (HTN) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are two common comorbidities of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), each of which can cause right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. The aim of this s.

Tirzepatide’s Prediabetes and Hypertension Impact

CardiacWire

It looks like we might be able to add prediabetes and hypertension to the growing list of conditions that Eli Lilly’s “weight loss drug” tirzepatide is able to treat, after new analysis of the SURMOUNT-1 trial showed significant reductions in blood pressure and diabetes progression. mm Hg systolic and 4.2

Nocturnal Hypertension and Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients With Diabetes With the Absence of Heart Failure: Prospective Cohort HSCAA Study

Hypertension Journal

Hypertension, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Diabetes is an important risk factor for heart failure (HF) and is associated with left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction. However, diabetic comorbid conditions, such as nocturnal hypertension, as predictors of diastolic dysfunction are not known in the absence of an HF period.

Proposed Risk Factor Tool Finds Heart Failure Rates are Higher Among American Indian Adults

DAIC

21, 2024 — The incidence rate of heart failure was 2- to 3-fold higher among American Indian populations than rates observed in studies focused on other population groups, such as African American, Hispanic or white adults, in a new study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association.

The intersection of heart failure and cancer in women: a review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

However, this comes at a cost with more women developing diabetes, hypertension and coronary artery disease as they age. These traditional cardiovascular risk factors not only increase their lifetime risk of heart failure but also their overall risk of cancer. Women continue to enjoy a greater life expectancy than men.
