Uric Acid Levels and Heart Failure: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Uric acid, the end-product of purine metabolism within the human body, has been the subject of studies exploring its potential association with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. However, the precise relationship between uric acid levels and heart failure remains elusive. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

Spatiotemporal Trends in the Burden of Aortic Aneurysms Caused by High Sodium Intake from 1990 to 2019: A Global, Regional, and National Analysis
This study, drawing on Global Burden of Disease (GBD) data, examines spatiotemporal trends in mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) linked to aortic aneurysm (AA) from high sodium intake. The aim is a comprehensive analysis globally, regionally, and nationally spanning 1990 to 2019. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

Circulating miR-423-5p levels are associated with carotid atherosclerosis in patients with chronic kidney disease
Carotid atherosclerosis is associated with an elevated risk of stroke in patients with chronic kidney disease. However, the molecular basis for the incidence of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with CKD is poorly understood. Here, we investigated whether circulating miR-423-5p is a crucial link between CKD and carotid atherosclerosis. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

Cardiometabolic risk assessment: A school-based study in Brazilian adolescent
Recently, new indices combining routine and low-cost anthropometric and biochemical measurements have emerged. Among them, the visceral adiposity index (VAI) and lipid accumulation product (LAP) are being investigated for the prediction of altered blood pressure (BP) and insulin resistance (IR). Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate whether visceral adiposity index (VAI) and height-corrected lipid accumulation product (HLAP) are predictors of cardiometabolic risk in Brazilian adolescents.

Time to define food salt targets in Italy starting with cereal-based products: A Safe and Practical way to reduce the Heavy Burden of cardiovascular disease
Excess salt intake is the leading dietary risk factor for cardiovascular disease in most countries, including Italy. While the cost-effectiveness of interventions aimed to reduce salt intake has been proved, the WHO recommendation to reduce salt intake by 30% at the global level by 2025 is far from being reached.

Nonlinear relationship between body mass index and serum uric acid: an observational and Mendelian randomization study among Chinese adults
Conflicting evidence exists on the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and serum uric acid (SUA), and importantly, the causal role of BMI in SUA remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the BMI-SUA relationship and its causality among Chinese adults using observational and Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses.

Referral to hepatologists or a second-line examination requirement is common in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
To estimate the number of patients who required a referral to hepatologists following the 2016 EASL –EASD–EASO guideline and a second-line vibration controlled transient elastography (VCTE) examination following the 2021 EASL guideline according to obesity, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), blood pressure (BP), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) control status in patients with type 2 d iabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Translating trial results into interpretable risk estimates: systematic analysis of cardiorenal outcome trials of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors
In a randomised controlled trial (RCT), the between-arm difference in the average probability of an event per unit of time (i.e., yearly incidence risk difference, YIRD) is an easy-to-interpret treatment effect metric. We aimed to quantify the YIRD in cardiorenal RCTs of GLP-1RAs or SGLT-2is. (Source: Nutrition, Metabolism, and Cardiovascular Diseases : NMCD)

Comparing a range of potassium-enriched low sodium salt substitutes to common salt: results of taste and visual tests in South African adults
Potassium-enriched low-sodium salt substitutes (LSSS), which replace a proportion of sodium chloride (NaCl) with potassium chloride (KCl), have been shown to reduce blood pressure and offer a potential solution to address the high burden of hypertension in South Africa. However, it is unknown which proportions of KCl in LSSS are acceptable. We compared the taste and visual acceptability of various LSSS in South African adults.

Prevalence and clinical characteristics of diabetic cardiomyopathy in patients with acute heart failure
Diabetic cardiomyopathy refers to cases of diabetes mellitus (DM) complicated by cardiac dysfunction in the absence of cardiovascular disease and hypertension. Its epidemiology remains unclear due to the high rate of coexistence between DM and hypertension. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of diabetic cardiomyopathy among patients with acute heart failure (HF).
