Background: The triglyceride‒glucose index (TyG index) is a reliable surrogate for insulin resistance (IR) in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus and is associated with cardiovascular disease. Recent studies have reported that H-type hypertension is likewise a predictor of adverse events in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). However, the relationship between the TyG index and prognosis in patients with H-type hypertension combined with CHD has not yet been reported.

Background: The net benefit of oral anticoagulation in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis (HD) is uncertain. In recent years, left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has emerged as an alternative to oral anticoagulation; however, there is scant evidence of LAAC in patients on HD.
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of LAAC in patients on HD.

Until now, it has been challenging to examine what are the causes of the cognitive decline associated with hypertension and to understand the predictive variables that indicate the development of cognitive impairment in people with hypertension. This work is aimed to understand the interplay between heart rate variability and blood pressure and whether their combination can predict cognitive performance. This cross-sectional observational study involved patients with fifty-two adults with essential hypertension and a control group of 41 healthy adults without hypertension.
