Do Non-Functional Adrenal Adenomas Affect Metabolic Profile and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness? A Single Centre Study from Poland
Conclusions: Patients diagnosed with NFAIs, despite normal cortisol inhibition in the 1 mg dexamethasone test, still presented a number of metabolic abnormalities. The assessment of IMT may proove valuable in indicate the presence of early vascular remodelling in asymptomatic patients. The underlying mechanisms of these findings are still unknown, hence further studies are required.PMID:37510727 | PMC:PMC10380859 | DOI:10.3390/jcm12144612

Triglyceride-glucose index, symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis and recurrence risk in minor stroke patients with hypertension
CONCLUSION: TyG is a significant risk factor for sICAS in hypertensive patients, and there is a synergistic effect of sICAS and higher TyG on ischemic stroke recurrence.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: The study was registered on 16 August 2019 at https://www.chictr.org.cn/showprojen.aspx?proj=41160 (No. ChiCTR1900025214).PMID:37076850 | DOI:10.1186/s12933-023-01823-6

Novel biomarkers and emerging tools to identify causal molecular pathways in hypertension and associated cardiovascular diseases
Kardiol Pol. 2023 Feb 5. doi: 10.33963/KP.a2023.0037. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypertension (HT) is a modifiable risk factor for life-threatening cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) including coronary artery disease, heart failure or stroke. Despite significant progress in understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of the disease, the molecular pathways targeted by HT treatment still remain largely unchanged. This warrants the necessity for searching novel biomarkers, which are causally related to persistent high blood pressure (BP) and may be pharmacologically targeted. Data from large-scale biobanks, containing h...

Association of hyperuricemia with cardiovascular diseases: current evidence
Hosp Pract (1995). 2023 Feb 2. doi: 10.1080/21548331.2023.2173413. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe aim of the present study is to present a historical and unified perspective on the association of serum uric acid (SUA) in the cause cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The association of hyperuricemia (HUC) with CVD begun to be appreciated in the middle 1950s and early 1990s when clinical evidence was shown on the association of HUC with CVD. However, this association was disputed by several investigators including the Framingham group and by professional societies, like the American Heart Association and the American Society ...

Triglyceride-glucose index trajectory and stroke incidence in patients with hypertension: a prospective cohort study
It has been suggested that the baseline triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a simple surrogate measure for insulin resistance, is significantly associated with the occurrence of stroke. Nevertheless, the impact ...

Causal Association of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Glycemic Traits With Cardiovascular Diseases and Lipid Traits: A Mendelian Randomization Study
CONCLUSION: We provided evidence for the causal effects of T2DM and glycemic traits on the risk of CVDs and dyslipidemia. Further investigations to elucidate the underlying mechanisms are warranted.PMID:35528012 | PMC:PMC9072667 | DOI:10.3389/fendo.2022.840579

Heart health in polycystic ovary syndrome: time to act on the data
Fertil Steril. 2022 May;117(5):885-886. doi: 10.1016/j.fertnstert.2022.03.014.ABSTRACTPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), first described over 80 years ago, is a chronic condition with gynecologic, metabolic, and psychologic manifestations. Both hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance are associated with the high prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors described in this population. Although robust data in reproductive-age women demonstrate a high rate of obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome, studies show mixed results in the adolescent and menopausal age groups. There is ...

Could "cellular exercise" be the missing ingredient in a healthy life? Diets, caloric restriction, and exercise-induced hormesis
Nutrition. 2022 Feb 7;99-100:111629. doi: 10.1016/j.nut.2022.111629. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOvernutrition is a poor dietary habit that has been correlated with increased health risks, especially in the developed world. This leads to an imbalance between energy storage and energy breakdown. Many biochemical processes involving hormones are involved in conveying the excess of energy into pathologic states, mainly atherosclerosis, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes. Diverse modalities of regular exercise have been shown to be beneficial, to varying extents, in overcoming the overnutrition comorbidities...

Diabetes and Ischemic Stroke: An Old and New Relationship an Overview of the Close Interaction between These Diseases
Int J Mol Sci. 2022 Feb 21;23(4):2397. doi: 10.3390/ijms23042397.ABSTRACTDiabetes mellitus is a comprehensive expression to identify a condition of chronic hyperglycemia whose causes derive from different metabolic disorders characterized by altered insulin secretion or faulty insulin effect on its targets or often both mechanisms. Diabetes and atherosclerosis are, from the point of view of cardio- and cerebrovascular risk, two complementary diseases. Beyond shared aspects such as inflammation and oxidative stress, there are multiple molecular mechanisms by which they feed off each other: chronic hyperglycemia and advanced...
