What is the efficacy and safety of semaglutide for the prevention of kidney failure, loss of kidney function, and death from kidney-related or cardiovascular causes in patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD)?
This is the prehospital ECG from an 81 year old man with acute chest pain. You will need to click on it to enlarge it in order to see it well enough What do you think? The medics did NOT activate the cath lab. But the paramedic got "told off" by ER staff saying they should have called the Cath lab saying it’s an inferior MI". ECG: There is what appears to be STE in inferior leads with reciprocal STD in aVL.
For patients with obesity-related heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), what is the effect of semaglutide on change in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class over time?
When blood moves through your body, it exerts a frictional force on the walls of blood vessels. This force, known as fluid shear stress, has important effects on vascular development, function, and disease.
By the time they are in their 60s, fewer people who gain excess weight from their 20s onwards have healthy hearts, according to research published in the European Heart Journal today.

BackgroundAmiodarone is a class III antiarrhythmic drug that is commonly used in the clinic to treat ventricular arrhythmias and atrial fibrillation. We present a case report of the adverse effects of amiodarone and review its characteristics.Case reportA 73-year-old Asian female with a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation managed with amiodarone, well-controlled hypertension, and no substance abuse presented with gastrointestinal distress and dizziness, without chest pain or palpitations.
IntroductionApolipoprotein E (apoE) acts as a binding molecule for both the low-density lipoprotein receptor and the lipoprotein receptor-related protein and this function is essential for facilitating the hepatocyte uptake of lipoproteins containing apoB. The absence of apoE leads to increased atherogenicity in both humans and mice, although the precise molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood.ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the susceptibility of apoE knockout (KO) rabbits,
