Transient left bundle branch block associated with very high coronary artery calcium: a case report
We present a case of very high CAC in a 64-year-old woman with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and hyperlipidemia presenting with dyspnea. Initial electrocardiogram (ECG) demonstrated normal conduction with a heart rate of 76 beats/min, but new T-wave inversions in V1-V4 and a high-sensitivity troponin-I (hsTnI) value of 6 ng/L (normal < 6 ng/L). Repeat ECG in the emergency department showed normal sinus rhythm (heart rate of 80 beats/min); however, it subsequently demonstrated a left bundle branch block (LBBB) with a repeat hsTnI of 7 ng/L. Stress testing with pharmacologic single-photon emission computerized tomography...

Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes: Lipid goal attainment in a large German-Austrian diabetes registry
CONCLUSION: Approximately 2 years after publication of the guidelines, LDL-C and non-HDL-C goal attainment was rarely achieved in patients with T1D and T2D with a high or very high cardiovascular risk.PMID:37694759 | DOI:10.1111/dom.15264

Evaluation of Large-Scale Proteomics for Prediction of Cardiovascular Events
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: A protein risk score was significantly associated with ASCVD events in primary and secondary event populations. When added to clinical risk factors, the protein risk score and polygenic risk score both provided statistically significant but modest improvement in discrimination.PMID:37606673 | DOI:10.1001/jama.2023.13258

Atorvastatin lowers < sup > 68 < /sup > Ga-DOTATATE uptake in coronary arteries, bone marrow and spleen in individuals with type 2 diabetes
CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: 68Ga-DOTATATE uptake across the cardio-haematopoietic axis was lower after statin therapy in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, 68Ga-DOTATATE is promising as a metric for vascular and haematopoietic inflammation in intervention studies using anti-inflammatory therapeutics in individuals with type 2 diabetes.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05730634.PMID:37581619 | DOI:10.1007/s00125-023-05990-9

HDL abnormalities in type 2 diabetes: Clinical implications
Atherosclerosis. 2023 Aug 3:117213. doi: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2023.117213. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAtherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) represents the primary cause of mortality among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). In this population, High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) particles exhibit abnormalities in number, composition, and function, culminating in diminished anti-atherosclerotic capabilities despite normal HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations. Hyperglycemic conditions contribute to these alterations in HDL kinetics, composition, and function, causing T2DM patients' HDL particles to e...

Visfatin and Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Type 2 Diabetes: Impact of Cardiovascular Drugs
Conclusions: Visfatin could be used as a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis in patients with T2DM, especially in males. The assessment of visfatin concentration could aid in identifying individuals who could benefit from implementing preventive measures against atherosclerosis.PMID:37512134 | PMC:PMC10386106 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59071324

Protective Effects of Different Classes, Intensity, Cumulative Dose-Dependent of Statins Against Primary Ischemic Stroke in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Curr Atheroscler Rep. 2023 Jul 29. doi: 10.1007/s11883-023-01135-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: The aim of this study is to investigate the protective effects of different statin classes, intensity, and cumulative dose-dependent against primary ischemic stroke in patients with T2DM.RECENT FINDINGS: The Cox hazards model was used to evaluate statin use on primary ischemic stroke. Case group: T2DM patients who received statins; control group: T2DM patients who received no statins during the follow-up. Adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) for primary ischemic stroke was 0.45 (95% CI: 0.44 to 0.46). Cox regression ...
