An Analysis of the Potential Relationship of Triglyceride Glucose and Body Mass Index With Stroke Prognosis
Conclusion: Overweight/obese patients with ischemic stroke have better survival than patients with low/normal weight. The association of BMI and stroke outcome is not changed by TYG index.

Elevated triglyceride-glucose index predicts risk of incident ischaemic stroke: The Rural Chinese Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: Elevated TyG index is an independent predictor of ischaemic stroke in the general population, and insulin resistance may be positively associated with future stroke risk.PMID:33722769 | DOI:10.1016/j.diabet.2021.101246

Akebia saponin D ameliorates metabolic syndrome (MetS) via remodeling gut microbiota and attenuating intestinal barrier injury
Biomed Pharmacother. 2021 Feb 27;138:111441. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.111441. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMetabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex, multifactorial disease which lead to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and stroke. However, selective, and potent drugs for the treatment of MetS are still lacking. Previous studies have found that Akebia saponin D (ASD) has beneficial effects on metabolic diseases such as obesity, atherosclerosis, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Therefore, our study was designed to determine the effect and mechanism of action of ASD against MetS in ...

Maternal Cardiovascular Health
Historically, the focus on the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease has been on individual risk factors. These factors, which are associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke, were identified in the Framingham Study and other longitudinal observational studies of adults. The traditional risk factors are hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, diabetes, and cigarette smoking. Subsequently, other potential risk factors, such as inflammation and insulin resistance, have been included in the discussion. The recognition of risk factors was a substantial advance because it provided clinical ta...

The Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome in Ethiopian Population: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Conclusions: The findings revealed an emerging high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Ethiopia. Therefore, early intervention is required for the primary prevention of the occurrence of metabolic syndrome and the further reduction of the morbidity and mortality related to it.

Ceramides in Metabolism: Key Lipotoxic Players.
Abstract The global prevalence of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, steatohepatitis, myocardial infarction, and stroke has increased dramatically over the past two decades. These obesity-fueled disorders result, in part, from the aberrant accumulation of harmful lipid metabolites in tissues not suited for lipid storage (e.g., the liver, vasculature, heart, and pancreatic beta-cells). Among the numerous lipid subtypes that accumulate, sphingolipids such as ceramides are particularly impactful, as they elicit the selective insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and ultimately cell death that underlie n...

The effect of type 2 diabetes on CD36 expression and the uptake of oxLDL: Diabetes affects CD36 and oxLDL uptake.
Abstract We investigated whether type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a risk factor of stroke, affects the level of scavenger receptor CD36 and the uptake of its ligand, oxidized LDL (oxLDL); and whether pioglitazone, a drug that enhances CD36, promotes oxLDL uptake. Compared to normoglycemic db/+ mice, adult db/db mice showed a pronounced reduction in surface CD36 expression on myeloid cells from the blood, brain, and bone marrow as detected by flow cytometry, which correlated with elevated plasma soluble-CD36 as determined by ELISA. Increased CD36 expression was found in brain macrophages and microglia of both genot...

Advantages of Phosphodiesterase Type 5 Inhibitors in the Management of Glucose Metabolism Disorders: A Clinical and Translational Issue.
Authors: Antinozzi C, Sgrò P, Di Luigi L Abstract Among metabolic diseases, carbohydrate metabolism disorders are the most widespread. The most common glucose pathological conditions are acquired and may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart diseases, stroke, and kidney insufficiency. Phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) have long been used as an effective therapeutic option for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). Different studies have demonstrated that PDE5i, by sensitizing insulin target tissues to insulin, play an important role in controlling the action of insulin and glucose met...

Cardiovascular Implications in Idiopathic and Syndromic Obesity in Childhood: An Update
Childhood obesity is a modern worldwide epidemic with significant burden for health. It is a chronic metabolic disorder associated with multiple cardiovascular risk factors such as dyslipidemia, hypertension, stroke, and insulin resistance. Many obese adolescents remain obese into adulthood, with increased morbidity and mortality. As childhood obesity is a risk factor for adult obesity, the childhood obesity-related disorders account for an increased risk of cardiovascular consequences in adults, in addition to the effects already exerted by the fat mass in adulthood. Several papers have already described the cardiovascula...

Cardiovascular effects of preeclampsia
This study reviews the evidence of increase cardiovascular risk in these women. Recent findings Women with preeclampsia are at two-fold higher risk for development of coronary artery disease, stroke and death, and four-fold increased risk of heart failure. Preeclampsia developed in early part of pregnancy confers greater risk than later in pregnancy. Common factors that predispose women to preeclampsia also confer high risk for developing cardiovascular disease include obesity, metabolic abnormalities, dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance, heightened inflammatory responses, hypercoagulable states and endothelia dysfunction...

Impact of comorbidity on health-related quality of life among type 2 diabetic patients in primary care.
CONCLUSION: Comorbidities considerably impair the HRQL among type 2 diabetic patients. National programs designed for diabetes management should also take into account the challenges of coexisting chronic conditions and its substantial effect on HRQL. PMID: 32248877 [PubMed - in process]
