Climatic influences on cardiovascular diseases
World J Cardiol. 2022 Mar 26;14(3):152-169. doi: 10.4330/wjc.v14.i3.152.ABSTRACTClassical risk factors only partially account for variations in cardiovascular disease incidence; therefore, also other so far unknown features, among which meteorological factors, may influence heart diseases (mainly coronary heart diseases, but also heart failure, arrhythmias, aortic dissection and stroke) rates. The most studied phenomenon is ambient temperature. The relation between mortality, as well as cardiovascular diseases incidence, and temperature appears graphically as a ''U'' shape. Exposure to cold, heat and heat waves is associat...

Glucose lowering does not necessarily reduce cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes
World J Cardiol. 2022 Apr 26;14(4):266-270. doi: 10.4330/wjc.v14.i4.266.ABSTRACTDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a health condition characterized by glucose dysregulation and affects millions of people worldwide. The presentation of heart failure in diabetic cardiomyopathy extends over a wide phenotypic spectrum, commencing from asymptomatic, subclinical structural abnormalities to severely symptomatic biventricular dysfunction with increased mortality risk. Similarly, the spectrum of systolic dysfunction in diabetic-induced heart failure is diverse. DM leads also to cardiac electrical remodeling reacting on various targets. Dipe...
