Increased health-related self-efficacy associated with significantly reduced likelihood of undertreatment
Cardiovascular Disease (CVD)
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE (CVD)
Testosterone Therapy for Hypogonadism Not Tied to Increased CV Risk
No evidence of increase seen for short- to medium-term cardiovascular risk, but data lacking regarding long-term safety
Sodium Thiosulfate May Slow Vascular Calcification in Hemodialysis
No medication is currently approved to treat vascular calcification in this population.
Early Glycemic Control May Cut CV Risk in Type 2 Diabetes
Greater glycemic variability is associated with increased risk for major adverse cardiovascular events
Reduced Kidney Function Ups Cardiovascular, Mortality Risks in Older Adults
In a population-based study of individuals aged 70 years or older, renal impairment was significantly associated with increased risk for death from cardiovascular and all causes.
Aspirin May Lower Cardiovascular Risks in Chronic Kidney Disease Population
Aspirin use among patients with chronic kidney disease was associated with reduced risk for major adverse cardiovascular events.
Higher Serum Urea Levels in CKD Predict Cardiovascular Events
Elevated serum urea levels are common among patients with moderate-to-advanced CKD.
High AI-ECG-AF Risk Score Tied to Worse Cognition, Cognitive Decline
High probability of atrial fibrillation by AI-ECG-AF score correlated with cerebral infarcts on MRI
Finerenone Beneficial in Advanced Chronic Kidney Disease
Investigators performed a subgroup analysis of patients in the phase 3 FIDELIO-DKD and FIGARO-DKD clinical trials comparing finerenone with placebo in patients with CKD and type 2 diabetes.
Previous Myocardial Injury Tied to Worse COVID-19 Outcomes
Significant but weaker associations with selected adverse outcomes seen for preexisting hypertension, diabetes, and ischemic heart disease
