The relation between the presence of cardiovascular disease and vascular risk factors in offspring and the occurrence of new vascular events in their parents already at high vascular risk
Conclusions Presence of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and diabetes in offspring, with diabetes mellitus being the most contributing cardiovascular risk factor, is related to an increased risk of developing new or subsequent vascular events in patients already at high vascular risk.

Urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 is associated with cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with atrial fibrillation
Conclusions Urinary 11-dehydro-TxB2 levels are associated with a residual risk of CVEs and CV mortality in patients with AF despite anticoagulant treatment.

Efficacy and Safety of Rivaroxaban in Patients with Diabetes and Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: The ROCKET AF Trial
Conclusions and Relevance The relative efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban vs. warfarin was similar in patients with and without DM, supporting use of rivaroxaban as an alternative to warfarin in diabetic patients with AF.

The relation between the presence of cardiovascular disease and major vascular risk factors in offspring and the occurrence of new vascular events in their parents already at high vascular risk
Conclusions Presence of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and diabetes in offspring, with diabetes mellitus being the most contributing vascular risk factor, is related to an increased risk of developing new or subsequent vascular events in patients already at high vascular risk.

Race and Ethnicity Influences on Cardiovascular and Renal Events in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus
Conclusion Despite similar access to care and lower CV event rates, the risk of ESRD was higher among blacks and Hispanics than whites. For blacks, but not Hispanics, this increase was independent of known attributable risk factors.

Anatomic Runoff Score Predicts Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients with Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease Undergoing Revascularization
Conclusions After adjustment for clinical factors, the LE-PAD anatomic runoff score was an independent predictor of future cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a broadly-representative patient population undergoing revascularization for symptomatic PAD. A clinically useful anatomic scoring system, if validated, may assist clinicians in risk-stratification during the course of clinical decision-making.

Design of the liraglutide effect and action in diabetes: Evaluation of cardiovascular outcome results (LEADER) trial
Conclusions LEADER commenced in September 2010, and enrollment concluded in April 2012. There were 9,340 patients enrolled at 410 sites in 32 countries. The mean age of patients was 64.3 ± 7.2 years, 64.3% were men, and mean body mass index was 32.5 ± 6.3 kg/m2. There were 7,592 (81.3%) patients with prior CVD and 1,748 (18.7%) who were high risk but without prior CVD. It is expected that LEADER will provide conclusive data regarding the cardiovascular safety of liraglutide relative to the current standard of usual care for a global population of patients with T2DM.

Clinical outcomes of hybrid coronary revascularization versus coronary artery bypass surgery in patients with diabetes mellitus
Background: Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) involves minimally invasive left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery grafting combined with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of non–left anterior descending vessels. The safety and efficacy of HCR among diabetic patients are unknown.Methods: Patients with diabetes were included who underwent HCR at a US academic center between October 2003 and September 2013. These patients were matched 1:5 to similar patients treated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using a propensity score (PS)-matching algorithm. Conditional logistic...

Evaluation of the dual peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor α/γ agonist aleglitazar to reduce cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus: Rationale and design of the AleCardio trial
Conclusions: AleCardio will establish whether the PPAR-α/γ agonist aleglitazar improves cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes and high-risk coronary disease.
