Background: The aim of the study was to examine the significance of plasma Transforming Growth Factor-1/TGF-β1 (TGF-β1) level testing in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and heart failure.

Methods: A sample of T2DM patients who were hospitalised for dyspnea was chosen between June 2021 and June 2023. Based on the convenience sample approach, 150 cases were screened for the study, and 50 healthy non-diabetic people without cardiac problems who completed physical examinations over the same period were included as a control group.

Introduction: Hypertensive heart failure (HHF) has a high incidence and poor prognosis.

Aim: This article evaluated the efficacy and safety of Vericiguat in HHF and analyzed the relationship between C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and patient prognosis.

Methods: 110 HHF patients were divided into Placebo and Vericiguat groups.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the early application of sacubitril valsartan sodium (LCZ696) following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and its impact on ventricular remodeling and the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway in patients.

Methods: The clinical data of 73 patients with AMI admitted to the hospital from June 2021 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were grouped according to the treatment methods, including 36 cases in the control group (conventional drug treatment) and 37 cases in the observation group (conventional drug + LCZ696 treatment). The clinical efficacy, cardiac function parameters [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), stroke volume (SV)], cardiac function biochemical indicators [N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), galectin 3 (Gal-3), amino-terminal peptide of type III procollagen (PIIINP)], ventricular remodeling indicators [left ventricular posterior wall end-diastolic thickness (PWD), posterior wall end-systolic thickness (PWS), ventricular septal end-systolic thickness (IVSS)], ventricular hydrodynamic parameters [left ventricular flow rate in peak ejection (FRPE), flow reversal rate (FRR), flow reversal interval (FRI)], TGF-β 1/Smad3 signaling pathway-related indicators (TGF-β1, Smad3), quality of life score (SF-36 Quality of Life Scale) and occurrence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.

Oxidized low‑density lipoprotein (ox‑LDL)‑induced vascular endothelial damage, oxidative stress and inflammation play a vital role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. Geniposide is the primary active ingredient from Gardenia jasminoides Ellis associated with anti‑oxidative properties and cardioprotective action. However, the therapeutic mechanism of geniposide in atherosclerosis remains unclear.
