Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Initiating First-Line Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes With Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 Inhibitors Versus Metformin : A Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: As first-line T2D treatment, initiators receiving SGLT-2i showed a similar risk for MI/stroke/mortality, lower risk for HHF/mortality and HHF, and a similar safety profile except for an increased risk for genital infections compared with those receiving metformin.PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School.PMID:35605236 | DOI:10.7326/M21-4012

Polycystic ovary syndrome: a "risk-enhancing" factor for cardiovascular disease
Fertil Steril. 2022 May;117(5):924-935. doi: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2022.03.009.ABSTRACTPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder among women of reproductive age and is hallmarked by hyperandrogenism, oligo-ovulation, and polycystic ovarian morphology. Polycystic ovary syndrome, particularly the hyperandrogenism phenotype, is associated with several cardiometabolic abnormalities, including obesity, dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, and prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Many, but not all, studies have suggested that PCOS is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), includi...

Diabetes: Chronic Metformin Treatment and Outcome Following Acute Stroke
ConclusionSimilar to previous reports, our study shows that diabetes adversely affects stroke outcome. The use of prior metformin is associated with better outcome in patients with ischemic stroke and results in lower mortality. The positive effects of metformin require further research to better understand its mechanism.

Acute Administration of Metformin Protects Against Neuronal Apoptosis Induced by Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury via Regulation of the AMPK/CREB/BDNF Pathway
Metformin is a first-line anti-diabetic agent with a powerful hypoglycemic effect. Several studies have reported that metformin can improve the prognosis of stroke patients and that this effect is independent of its hypoglycemic effect; however, the specific mechanism remains unclear. In this research, we explored the effect and specific mechanism of metformin in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by constructing a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion model in vivo and a glucose and oxygen deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) model in vitro. The results of the in vivo experiments showed that acute treatment with...

The association between bullous pemphigoid and comorbidities: a case-control study in Moroccan patients
CONCLUSION: This study showed that BP is associated with stroke and the presence of malignancy compared to the age-matched general population. This study also calls for investigation into the specific role of some drugs as inducing factors for BP.PMID:35339128
