Methods From November 2022 to May 2024, we conducted an outpatient follow-up of 41 patients receiving WCD. Among the cohort, 54% had hypertension, 41% were smokers and 66% had dyslipidaemia, while 27% were diabetic. In this study, we explore the use of WCD and evaluate arrhythmic events through comprehensive monitoring.

METHODS:The J-HOP study enrolled outpatients with ≥1 cardiovascular risk factor between 2005 and 2012, with follow-up until March 2015 and extended follow-up from December 2017 to May 2018. Findings were similar in the subgroup of high-risk patients (those with diabetes or stroke history).CONCLUSIONS:These

However, researchers said the drug may be helpful in reducing heart failure risks, including hospitalization, following a heart attack. SGLT-2 inhibitors were initially approved to treat Type 2 diabetes by lowering blood sugar. About 32% had Type 2 diabetes.

Background Heart failure (HF), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) commonly coexist. Inpatient and outpatient healthcare utilisation rates were highest in CKD and HF, and lowest in CKD and T2D. We studied characteristics, prognosis and healthcare utilisation of individuals with two of these conditions.
