Effects of the Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Inhibitors on Cardiovascular Death and All-Cause Mortality: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trials
ConclusionsSodium-glucose cotransporter inhibitors  significantly reduced major adverse cardiovascular events, including hospitalization and all-cause mortality in patients with or without established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We observed a beneficial trend in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, and no benefi ts in patients with stroke or myocardial infarction.

Sex Differences in Characteristics, Outcomes and Treatment Response with Dapagliflozin across the Range of Ejection Fraction in Patients with Heart Failure: Insights from DAPA-HF and DELIVER
CONCLUSIONS: In DAPA-HF and DELIVER, the response to dapagliflozin was similar between men and women. Sex did not modify the treatment effect of dapagliflozin across the range of ejection fraction.PMID:36342789 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.062832

The role of blood pressure management in stroke prevention: current status and future prospects
Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther. 2022 Oct 16. doi: 10.1080/14779072.2022.2137490. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Stroke is the second-leading cause of death worldwide and the second-leading cause of disability-adjusted life-years. It is well-known that hypertension is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular events, including stroke.AREAS COVERED: Recent interventional trials have demonstrated the superiority of intensive blood pressure (BP) control for prevention of cardiovascular events compared to standard BP control. Notably, in the Strategy of Blood Pressure Intervention in Elderly Hypertensive Patients (S...

Effects of salt substitutes on clinical outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions The beneficial effects of salt substitutes on blood pressure across geographies and populations were consistent. Blood pressure-mediated protective effects on clinical outcomes are likely to be generalisable across population subgroups and to countries worldwide. Trial registration number CRD42020161077.

Increased ionized calcium-magnesium-ratio in elderly hypertensives - relationship to artheriosclerosis
CONCLUSIONS: As described earlier, a magnesium deficiency can be involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension and in elderly.The increased calcium-magnesium-ratio is also a pathogenetic factor for artheriosclerosis often found in elderly hypertensives with vascular damage, e.g. stroke, renal insufficiency or heart disease.PMID:36026911 | DOI:10.1097/01.hjh.0000836640.98666.86

Impaired renal function and mortalities in acute heart failure with different phenotypes
ConclusionsOn-admission IRF was independently predictive of long-term mortality in patients hospitalized for HF, irrespective of HF phenotypes. Furthermore, IRF was also associated with short-term mortality in HFrEF and HFmrEF, but not in HFpEF.

Aldosterone and cardiovascular diseases
Cardiovasc Res. 2022 Apr 7:cvac027. doi: 10.1093/cvr/cvac027. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAldosterone's role in the kidney and its pathophysiologic actions in hypertension are well known. However, its role or that of its receptor [minieralocorticoid receptor (MR)] in other cardiovascular (CV) disease are less well described. To identify their potential roles in six CV conditions (heart failure, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, stroke, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis), we assessed these associations in four areas: 1) mechanistic studies in rodents and humans; 2) preclinical studies of MR antagonists; 3) clinica...

Cost-effectiveness of a Household Salt Substitution Intervention: Findings From 20,995 Participants of the Salt Substitute and Stroke Study (SSaSS)
