Comprehensive Management of Cardiovascular Risk Factors for Adults With Type 2 Diabetes: A Scientific Statement From the American Heart Association
Circulation. 2022 Jan 10:CIR0000000000001040. doi: 10.1161/CIR.0000000000001040. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in patients with diabetes. Cardiovascular disease in diabetes is multifactorial, and control of the cardiovascular risk factors leads to substantial reductions in cardiovascular events. The 2015 American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association scientific statement, "Update on Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Light of Recent Evidence," highlighted the importance of modifying various risk factors resp...

Exosomes in atrial fibrillation: therapeutic potential and role as clinical biomarkers
AbstractAtrial fibrillation (AF), the most common cardiac arrhythmia, is a global epidemic. AF can cause heart failure and myocardial infarction and increase the risk of stroke, disability, and thromboembolic events. AF is becoming increasingly ubiquitous and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality at higher ages, resulting in an increasing threat to human health as well as substantial medical and social costs. Currently, treatment strategies for AF focus on controlling heart rate and rhythm with medications to restore and maintain sinus rhythm, but this approach has limitations. Catheter ablation is not entir...

Anti-diabetic drugs for preventing atrial fibrillation: a new revolution?
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are two of the great epidemics of our time. DM affects and estimated 8.5% of adults in the US1, and is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, including AF.2 AF in turn affects an estimated up to 12.5% of adults over age 65 years in the US, decreases quality of life and increases the risks of heart failure, stroke and death 3,4. In 2015, the EMPA-REG OUTCOME randomized controlled trial (RCT), assessing a sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i), sparked interest in the therapeutic potential for oral anti-diabetic agents to reduce card...

Hypertension: Do Inflammation and Immunity Hold the Key to Solving this Epidemic?
Circ Res. 2021 Apr 2;128(7):908-933. doi: 10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.121.318052. Epub 2021 Apr 1.ABSTRACTElevated cardiovascular risk including stroke, heart failure, and heart attack is present even after normalization of blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Underlying immune cell activation is a likely culprit. Although immune cells are important for protection against invading pathogens, their chronic overactivation may lead to tissue damage and high blood pressure. Triggers that may initiate immune activation include viral infections, autoimmunity, and lifestyle factors such as excess dietary salt. These conditions ac...
