Patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes have a high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), but now, a new study shows that type 1 diabetes patients are more susceptible to both cardiovascular and renal disease.
This study looked at 2946 individuals without cardiovascular disease who were assessed to have intermediate ASCVD risk and underwent electrocardiography.
What do the new guidelines and recommendations advise regarding patient selection and the most appropriate clinical use of CAC scoring for ASCVD risk assessment?
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with adrenal insufficiency. In this study, UK researchers weighed the presence of comorbidities against cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Drinking coffee is linked to a lower risk of heart failure, challenging previous assumptions about caffeine consumption and heart health.
The combination of obesity, elevated blood pressure, and elevated triglycerides with obstructive sleep apnea may further complicate the conditions of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Autopsy studies have shown that aortic and coronary artery atherosclerotic lesions are present in toddlers and progresses into adulthood. This study explores the development of coronary atherosclerosis due to non–HDL-C over three stages of life.
The risk of coronary heart disease in childhood-onset type 1 diabetes is currently predicted to some extent by focusing on conventional risk factors, including hemoglobin A1C and diabetes duration, but that is hardly sufficient in predicting CHD later in life, researchers report.
