Adult onset MELAS Syndrome Presenting as A Mimic of Herpes Simplex Encephalitis.
CONCLUSION: The clinical presentation and imaging studies of MELAS in adults are variable and may mimic those of HSE.

Heterogeneous treatment effects on cardiovascular diseases with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors versus sulfonylureas in type 2 diabetes patients.
This study explored heterogeneous treatment effects (HTEs) of the real-world use of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) versus sulfonylureas (SU) on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and mortality in type 2 diabetes. Utilizing Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database, 19,853 propensity score-matched pairs of DPP-4i and SU stable users were identified. Classification and regression tree analyses and Cox models were applied to explore HTEs, according to various patient characteristics, on the composite CVDs, three-point major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), and all-cause mortality. The absolute risk diff...

Association between Coronary Artery Spasm and the risk of incident Diabetes: A Nationwide population-based Cohort Study
Conclusion: CAS is a risk factor for incident diabetes regardless of sex. However, females aged <50 years have a more apparent risk for CAS-related diabetes than old females, which is not observed in males. The median time of 2.9 years to incident diabetes warrants close follow-up.PMID:34104095 | PMC:PMC8176166 | DOI:10.7150/ijms.57987
