Gender Difference of Blood Pressure Control Rate and Clinical Prognosis in Patients With Resistant Hypertension: Real-World Observation Study
CONCLUSION: In resistant hypertension, men were younger than women, but end-organ damage was more common and the risk of cardiovascular event was higher. More intensive cardiovascular prevention strategies may be required in male patients with resistant hypertension.PMID:37096308 | PMC:PMC10125792 | DOI:10.3346/jkms.2023.38.e124

Risk of hospital admission or emergency department presentation due to diabetes complications: a retrospective cohort study in Tasmania, Australia
ConclusionsOur results demonstrated the high demand on hospital services due to diabetes complications (especially macrovascular complications) and highlighted the importance of preventing and properly managing microvascular complications. These findings will support future resource allocation to reduce the increasing burden of diabetes in Australia.PMID:37137728 | DOI:10.1071/AH22271

Cardiovascular risk in women attending primary care centres: baseline data of the EVA study
Conclusions Four in 10 women attending primary care centres had a high or very high cardiovascular risk. Percentages of classic cardiovascular risk factors were higher in HT than in NHT and increased significantly with age. The most commonly used drugs were renin–angiotensin system blockers and diuretics.

Effect of Early Initiation of Dialysis on Cardiac Structure and Function: Results From the Echo Substudy of the IDEAL Trial
Conclusions: Advanced cardiac disease in these patients with stage 5 chronic kidney disease did not progress during the 12-month study period and planned early initiation of dialysis therapy did not result in differences in any echocardiographic variables of cardiac structure and function.

RCTs: Peginesatide in patients with anaemia and chronic kidney disease
Source: N Engl J Med Area: News In the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers report the results of four event-driven, randomised, controlled, open-label trials that compared the efficacy and safety of standard erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) therapy with peginesatide (Omontys), a peptide based ESA approved in the US in March 2012 for the treatment of anaemia caused by chronic kidney disease in adults who are undergoing dialysis.   The EMERALD 1 and EMERALD 2 studies involved patients undergoing haemodialysis. Cardiovascular safety was evaluated by analysis of an adjudicated composite safety end poin...

Evaluation of cardiovascular disease burden and therapeutic goal attainment in US adults with chronic kidney disease: an analysis of national health and nutritional examination survey data, 2001--2010
Conclusions: Individuals with CKD have a high prevalence of CV-related comorbidities. However, attainment of LDL-C or BP goals was low regardless of disease stage. These findings highlight the potential for intensive risk factor modification to maximize CV event reduction in CKD patients at high risk for CHD.

Association of Serum Bicarbonate With Risk of Renal and Cardiovascular Outcomes in CKD: A Report From the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study
Conclusions: In a cohort of participants with CKD, low serum bicarbonate level was an independent risk factor for kidney disease progression, particularly for participants with preserved kidney function. The risk of heart failure was higher at the upper extreme of serum bicarbonate levels. There was no association between serum bicarbonate level and all-cause mortality or atherosclerotic events.

Safety of Outpatient Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy in the Elderly: Analysis of 15,248 Patients Using the NSQIP Database
Background: Studies have shown that laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in an ambulatory setting is a safe alternative to the traditional overnight hospital stay. However, there are limited data on the morbidity and mortality of outpatient LC in elderly patients. We evaluated the safety of ambulatory LC in the elderly and identified risk factors that predict inpatient admission.Study Design: A retrospective analysis was performed using the American College of Surgeon's NSQIP database between 2007 and 2010. The database was searched for patients older than 65 years of age who underwent elective LC at all participating hospita...

Association between AKI and Long-Term Renal and Cardiovascular Outcomes in United States Veterans.
CONCLUSIONS: Veterans who develop AKI in the setting of MI have worse long-term outcomes than those with AKI or MI alone. Veterans with AKI alone have worse outcomes than those diagnosed with an MI in the absence of AKI. PMID: 24311708 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
