Erectile Dysfunction Medications Associated With Higher Risk for Vision Issues
Regular users of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5Is) for erectile dysfunction may have an increased risk for adverse ocular events.
Coronary Artery Disease
Artificial Intelligence Evaluation of Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography
Researchers evaluated AI analysis of coronary CT angiography and its ability to decrease overestimation of coronary artery disease stenosis severity.
Screening for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease via CTA in Patients With Ischemia
A post hoc analysis of the ISCHEMIA study evaluated the markers of left main CAD via clinical and noninvasive functional parameters.
High Apolipoprotein B Levels Associated With Diabetes and Shorter Lifespan
Many cardiovascular diseases are related to blood lipid concentrations, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) is often used to assess risks. Investigators sought more precise ways to predict cardiovascular and other disease risk factors.
High Preoperative HbA1c Linked to Adverse CABG Outcomes
The researchers studied the Veterans Affairs data to evaluate the association of pre-operative hemoglobin A1c and long-term outcome after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.
Statins Reduce MACE in Diabetes Without Obstructive CAD
The researchers studied the effect of aspirin and statin treatment on cardiovascular and bleeding incidence in patients with diabetes in the absence of obstructive CAD.
Older Age, Diabetes Duration, and CAD Are Leading Risk Factors for PAD in Patients With T2DM
Researchers report the results of a systematic review assessing risk factors for peripheral artery disease in populations with type 2 diabetes.
Medicare Claims Database Useful for Detecting Arrhythmogenic Risk of QT-Prolonging Drugs
Study authors evaluated whether using an observational study that includes Medicare claims data could detect the proarrhythmic risk of medications known to prolong the QT interval.
Cardiorenal Disease Burden Increased in Type 1 Diabetes Across Lifespan
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.
Major Adverse CV Event Prediction Via Coronary CT Angiography in T2D
Extent and severity of coronary artery disease was examined in over 900 patients with type 2 diabetes.
