Sotagliflozin, a drug recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat type 2 diabetes and kidney disease with additional cardiovascular risk factors, can significantly reduce heart attack and stroke among these patients, according to results from an international clinical trial led by a Mount Sinai researcher.
Left main coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes pose significant challenges in cardiovascular care, often leading to adverse outcomes. Preliminary evidence from trials focusing on patients with multivessel disease has hinted at diabetes as a potential modifier of treatment outcomes.
(MedPage Today) -- The dual SGLT1/2 inhibitor sotagliflozin (Inpefa) reduced the risk for myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke in high-risk patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and cardiovascular risk factors, a prespecified.
People with type 2 diabetes have a higher risk of suffering a stroke, a heart attack and premature death due to atherosclerosis, but it has been unclear what the underlying mechanisms are. The study has now been published in Nature Communications.
There has been a redistribution in the risk of arterial disease in type 1 and 2 diabetes. The risks of heart attack and stroke have decreased significantly, while complications in more peripheral vessels have increased in relative importance, according to studies at the University of Gothenburg.
Stroke, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Stroke triggers are factors that may precipitate a stroke within a given time interval and can predict the timing of a stroke. More research is needed to assess the link between the severity of hypoglycemia and stroke occurrence, as well as the severity of the stroke.
Stroke, Ahead of Print. The 2024 Guidelines for the Primary Prevention of Stroke, recently updated by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association, serve as an essential resource for clinicians aiming to reduce the growing impact of cerebrovascular disease.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and diabetes mellitus (DM) are associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke, particularly in geriatric populations. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have demo.
UVA Health's Karen Johnston, MD, the SHINE trial leader, was pleased to see the new insights into best practices for stroke care. These data from the SHINE trial continue to inform the national stroke community about potential approaches to treating hyperglycemic stroke patients to assure better outcomes,” she said.
People with type 2 diabetes had significantly fewer heart attacks, strokes, heart failures, and deaths from cardiovascular disease when their blood pressure was lower than the current standard goal, a UT Southwestern Medical Center researcher and his colleagues found.
Objective To explore trends in prognosis and use of glucose-lowering drugs (GLD) in patients with diabetes and coronary artery disease (CAD). Research design and methods All patients with diabetes and CAD undergoing a coronary angiography between 2010 and 2021 according to the Swedish Angiography and Angioplasty Registry were included.
February 1, 2024 — As cardiologists, heart disease patients and the organizations that serve them across the country embark on American Heart Month, DAIC has compiled a snapshot of significant cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke statistics, along with a review of the atherosclerosis drug market. million have diagnosed diabetes; and 9.7
The proposed imaging system can diagnose diabetes, stroke, anemia, asthma, liver and gallbladder conditions, COVID-19, and a range of vascular and gastrointestinal issues, according to new research. A computer algorithm has achieved a 98% accuracy in predicting different diseases by analyzing the color of the human tongue.
A stroke often leads to motor impairment, which is traditionally linked to the extent of damage to the corticospinal tract (CST), a crucial brain pathway for motor control. However, stroke recovery outcomes aren't fully predicted by damage to the CST, suggesting other factors are at play.
Type-2 diabetes (T2D) worsens stroke recovery, amplifying post-stroke disabilities. Currently, there are no therapies targeting this important clinical problem. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2.
A projected rise in heart disease and stroke – along with several key risk factors, including high blood pressure and obesity – is likely to triple related costs to $1.8 A projected rise in heart disease and stroke – along with several key risk factors, including high blood pressure and obesity – is likely to triple related costs to $1.8
New research has uncovered a surprising culprit underlying cardiovascular diseases in obesity and diabetes -- not the presence of certain fats, but their suppression. The study challenges the conventional belief that a type of fat called ceramides accumulates in blood vessels causing inflammation and health risks.
The reason excess weight is such big issues are the health consequences it confers with increased rates of diabetes, heart disease, osteoarthritis, obstructive sleep apnea, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and others, just to name a few. Avoiding diabetes and its precursor states inclduing insulin resistance is key. Every hour.
Dual SGLT1/2 inhibition with sotagliflozin significantly reduced both heart attacks and stroke in a prespecified secondary analysis of the SCORED trial.
People with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at elevated risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) including stroke, yet existing real-world evidence (RWE) on the clinical and economic burden of stroke in this population.
The primary outcome was atherothrombotic major adverse cardiovascular events as a composite outcome of cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal stroke, and nonfatal myocardial infarction. Patients were propensity matched in a 1:1 ratio using a caliper distance of 0.2 without replacement.
Patients were categorized by diabetes status. Kaplan-Meier event rates, Cox model hazard ratios, and interactions were assessed.RESULTS:Among 4393 patients, 1104 (25.1%) had diabetes. PintHR=0.87) diabetes. Patients were considered suitable for either approach. and 9.9%) compared with those without (2.1%
BACKGROUND:Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes. The effects of glucose-lowering medications on cardiovascular outcomes in individuals with type 2 diabetes and low cardiovascular risk are unclear. years, type 2 diabetes duration of 4.0±2.7
years for women with type 2 diabetes. 1.29) for women with type 2 diabetes.CONCLUSIONS:In women with diabetes, a history of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy was associated with an increased risk of incident cardiovascular disease and should be considered as a risk enhancer. years for women with type 1 and 29.8
Background Carotid artery atherosclerosis is a major cause of ischemic stroke, and ischemic stroke is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The miRNA-29c was reported to promote the phenotype transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in diabetes mice, eventually leading to plaque formation and bleeding.

Anticoagulation is often based on the premise that the risk of stroke increases with each additional CHA2DS2VASc risk factor. Diabetes is accepted as a risk factor for stroke in AF, but the threshold at which stroke risk increases is uncertain. male), of whom 64,972 (27.8%) had diabetes. metformin use, 10.6%
As expected, GLP-1s reduced MI risk by 9%, cardiac arrest by 22%, incident HF by 11%, ischemic stroke by 7%, and hemorrhagic stroke by 14%. Starting with the good news, GLP-1s lowered risks for 42 health outcomes while increasing risks for 19 outcomes. The less good news? Theres still no free lunch in healthcare.
It all comes down to: What your priorities are What your objectives are Your risk tolerance Your ability to update that risk model Where you draw the line of ‘risk’ equating to ‘causation’ The same is true when it comes to the question of statins ‘causing’ diabetes. What to do? Let’s dive in.
Loss of eligibility for cholesterol and blood pressure medicines could lead to 107,000 more heart attacks and strokes over 10 years but may reduce new diabetes cases by 57,000 over the same period.
BACKGROUND:Cardiovascular disease and stroke are common and costly, and their prevalence is rising. Diabetes (16.3% to 3.8%), stroke (3.9% Circulation, Ahead of Print. in 2020 to 61.0% to 26.8%) and obesity (43.1% to 60.6%) will increase, whereas hypercholesterolemia will decline (45.8% Prevalences of coronary disease (7.8%
