Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Early and Midterm Outcomes After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (from a Multicenter Registry)
In conclusion, DM does not significantly affect rates of complications in patients who underwent TAVI. Insulin-treated DM, but not orally treated DM, is independently associated with death and myocardial infarction at midterm follow-up and should be included into future TAVI-dedicated scores.

Impact of Gender on the Prognosis of Patients With Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation
Treatment guidelines for atrial fibrillation (AF) used in Western countries describe female gender as a risk factor for thromboembolic events in patients with nonvalvular AF (NVAF). The present study aimed to determine the impact of gender on prognosis of Japanese patients with NVAF. A subanalysis of 7,406 patients with NVAF (mean age 70 years) who were followed-up prospectively for 2 years was performed using data from the J-RHYTHM registry. The primary end points were thromboembolic events, major hemorrhaging, total mortality, and cardiovascular mortality. Compared with male subjects (n = 5,241), female subjects (n =...

Influence of Cardiovascular and Non-Cardiovascular Comorbidities on Outcomes and Treatment Effect of Heart Rate Reduction with Ivabradine in Stable Heart Failure – (from the SHIFT trial)
Incidence of chronic heart failure (HF) increases with age and cardiovascular morbidity. Comorbidities increase hospitalization and mortality in HF, and non-cardiovascular comorbidities may lead to preventable hospitalizations. We studied the impact of comorbidities on mortality and morbidity in SHIFT, and investigated whether the impact of ivabradine was affected by comorbidities. We analyzed the SHIFT population, with moderate to severe HF and left ventricular dysfunction (in sinus rhythm with resting heart rate ≥70 bpm), according to comorbidity: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, anemia, stroke...

Influence of Cardiovascular and Noncardiovascular Co-morbidities on Outcomes and Treatment Effect of Heart Rate Reduction With in Stable Heart Failure (from the SHIFT Trial)
Incidence of chronic heart failure (HF) increases with age and cardiovascular (CV) morbidity. Co-morbidities increase hospitalization and mortality in HF, and non-CV co-morbidities may lead to preventable hospitalizations. We studied the impact of co-morbidities on mortality and morbidity in Systolic Heart Failure Treatment with the If Inhibitor Ivabradine Trial, and investigated whether the impact of ivabradine was affected by co-morbidities. We analyzed the Systolic Heart Failure Treatment with the If Inhibitor Ivabradine Trialpopulation, with moderate-to-severe HF and left ventricular dysfunction (in sinus rhythm with h...

Utility of Global Longitudinal Strain by Echocardiography to Detect Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Long-Term Adult Survivors of Childhood Lymphoma and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Measuring left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) is recommended in screening of long-term cancer survivors for cardiotoxicity. However, there are limited data on GLS in this setting, in particular in survivors with apparently normal LV function without risk factors of impaired GLS. In the present study, we measured GLS in 191 adult survivors of childhood lymphoma or acute lymphoblastic leukemia, with normal LV ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS), and without known hypertension, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction or stroke.

Metabolic Markers to Predict Incident Diabetes Mellitus in Statin-Treated Patients (From the Treating to New Targets (TNT) and the Stroke Prevention by Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Levels (SPARCL) Trials)
The goal of this analysis was to evaluate the ability of insulin resistance, identified by the presence of prediabetes mellitus (PreDM) combined with either an elevated triglyceride (TG>1.7mmol/L) or body mass index (BMI> 27.0 kg/m2), to identify increased risk of statin-associated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Consequently, a retrospective analysis of data from non-diabetic individuals in the TNT and SPARCL randomized controlled trials was performed, subdividing participants into 4 experimental groups: 1) normal fasting glucose (NFG) and TG ≤ 1.7 mmol/L (42%); 2) NFG and TG> 1.7 mmol/L (22%); 3) PreDM and TG ≤ 1.7 ...

Comparison of the Incidence of Major Bleeding with Rivaroxaban Use among Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation Patients With versus Without Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common comorbidity in those with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Most patients with DM and NVAF have a CHA2DS2-VASc score of ≥1 and should be considered for oral anticoagulation therapy for stroke prevention per treatment guidelines. The most important risk associated with anticoagulation is bleeding, which may be higher in those with NVAF plus DM. Our objective was to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of major bleeding (MB) in rivaroxaban users diagnosed with NVAF, further comparing those with DM versus those without DM, in a real-world clinical setting.

Myocardial Infarction Subtypes in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and the Effect of Liraglutide Therapy (From the LEADER Trial)
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a known risk factor for myocardial infarction (MI); however, data regarding MI subtypes in people with diabetes are limited. In the LEADER trial (N=9340), liraglutide significantly reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular (CV) events (composite of CV death, non-fatal MI or non-fatal stroke) versus placebo in patients with type 2 DM and high CV risk. Liraglutide also reduced risk of first MI (292 events with liraglutide versus 339 with placebo). This post hoc analysis characterized MIs (first and recurrent) occurring in LEADER, by treatment arm and regarding incidence, outcome, subtype and troponin levels.

In the Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes: Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcome Results (LEADER) trial (n = 9,340), liraglutide significantly reduced the risk of major adverse cardiovascular (CV) events (composite of CV death, nonfatal MI, or nonfatal stroke) versus placebo in patients with type 2 DM and high CV risk. Liraglutide also reduced risk of first MI (292 events with liraglutide vs 339 wit h placebo).

Lipid-Lowering Prescription Patterns in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus or Cardiovascular Disease
The purpose of this study is to describe lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) prescriptions and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) monitoring in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) with or without concomitant cardiovascular disease (CVD). Olmsted County, MN residents with a first-ever diagnosis of DM or CVD (ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, or revascularization procedure) between 2005 and 2012 were classified as having DM only, CVD only, or CVD + DM.

Use of the Burden of Diabetes Mellitus Score for Cardiovascular Disease Risk Assessment
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is rising drastically with> 400 million patients living with the disorder worldwide.1-3 DM is associated with severe complications including coronary artery disease (CAD), stroke, neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy.2,4,5 Of these, cardiovascular (CV) disease is the most substantial cause of morbidity and mortality.6-9 Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels and duration of disease are 2 of the strongest predictors of poor CV outcomes including mortality.1,2,5,7,10,11 One study showed that early onset DM with> 10 years duration was equivalent to CAD itself.

Sleep Duration and Cardiovascular Health in A Representative Community Population (from NHANES, 2005 to 2016)
We examined the relation between sleep duration and cardiovascular health among the general population in the United States from 2005 to 2016. We sought to investigate associations between sleep duration and the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure (HF), stroke, hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM), and hyperlipidemia.

Meta-analysis Assessing the Effect of Sodium-glucose Co-transporter-2 Inhibitors on Left Ventricular Mass in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has evolved as a pandemic of the 21st century, while cardiovascular disease (CVD) affects almost one third of patients and represents the cause of death in more than half cases, with coronary artery disease, heart failure (HF) and stroke being the main contributors.1 Hallmark cardiovascular outcome trials published during the last five years have established a novel class of antidiabetics, namely sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors as a primary treatment option in patients with HF, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), along with the ...
