Approach to atrial fibrillation: Essentials for primary care
CONCLUSION: Most patients with AF can be managed effectively in primary care. Family physicians not only play an important role in ensuring patients with AF receive timely diagnoses, but they are also key to providing initial and ongoing care, especially in patients with comorbid conditions.PMID:37072207 | PMC:PMC10112727 | DOI:10.46747/cfp.6904245

Clinical and prognostic profile evolution of patients discharged from hospital due to heart failure in the first two decades of the 21st century. The INCA-Ex Registry
CONCLUSIONS: In the last 20 years, admissions for heart failure, patient age, and comorbidity have increased. Predictive variables for mortality and/or readmission were age, diabetes, previous cardiovascular disease, neoplasms, COPD, kidney failure, and anemia; however, mortality at one year remained constant.PMID:35576889 | PMC:PMC9118354 | DOI:10.1016/j.aprim.2022.102357

Cardiovascular effectiveness of glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists versus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes: A meta-analysis based on propensity score-matched studies
Prim Care Diabetes. 2021 Dec 22:S1751-9918(21)00211-4. doi: 10.1016/j.pcd.2021.11.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGlucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) are two novel classes of hypoglycemic agents. The relative cardiovascular effectiveness between these two drug classes in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) is unestablished due to the absence of large cardiovascular outcome trials directly comparing DPP-4i with GLP-1RA. We aimed to incorporate large propensity score-matched cohort studies to conduct a meta-analysis, to determine the relative effectiveness of ...

A study of risk factors and complications in elderly hypertensive subjects
CONCLUSION: Sedentary lifestyle (physically less active) and anthropometric measures like overweight and obesity, abnormal waist circumference, and abnormal waist hip ratio were all identified as remarkable risk for hypertension. Myocardial infarction (20%), stroke (14%), and heart failure (12%) were the chart buster complications of hypertension in the vulnerable geriatric population.PMID:34322417 | PMC:PMC8284235 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_1959_20

Association between serum uric acid levels and cardiovascular events in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes
CONCLUSIONS: In hospitalized patients with T2DM, baseline serum UA levels were positively associated with cardiovascular events in women, but not in men. Serum UA levels may be a significant independent risk factor for cardiovascular events in women with T2DM.PMID:33849815 | DOI:10.1016/j.pcd.2021.03.003
