Background: The purpose of the study was to compare the risk of de novo cardiovascular disease (CVD) between hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) in patients with incident end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Methods: From a Taiwanese universal insurance claims database, we identified 45309 incident ESRD patients without preexisting CVD from 2000 to 2010. Using the propensity score matching method, we included 6516 patients in HD and PD groups, respectively. All patients were followed up until the end of 2011. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was employed to calculate the impact of dialysis modality on the risk of new onset cardiovascular events including ischemic heart disease, and congestive heart failure (CHF).
Results: No difference was observed in the overall risk of de novo ischemic heart disease between the propensity score-matched HD and PD groups (HD versus PD, adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.86-1.22). However, HD was associated with a higher risk of de novo CHF (adjusted HR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.13-1.47) than PD was. The risk of de novo CHF was particularly high in the first year under dialysis treatment for propensity score-matched HD patients, compared to PD patients.
Conclusions: No difference was observed in the overall risk of de novo major ischemic heart events between HD and PD patients. However, HD was associated with a higher risk of de novo CHF than PD in the first year under dialysis treatment.

In patients with transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, induction therapy with a quadruplet regimen prior to autologous transplant is the standard of care. The phase III IFM2020-02-MIDAS study (NCT04934475) assessed a minimal residual disease (MRD)-driven consolidation and maintenance strategy following induction with isatuximab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (IsaKRD). Here, we report safety and efficacy outcomes of six 28-day cycles of IsaKRD.

Hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes are highly prevalent and poorly controlled cardiometabolic diseases in the Middle East. Therapeutic non-adherence and therapeutic inertia are major contributors to this suboptimal disease control. Regardless of the cardiometabolic disease, evidence-based solutions may be used to improve therapeutic non-adherence and overcome inertia, and thereby help to alleviate the heavy burden of cardiovascular disease in the Middle East.

Ravulizumab is a second-generation complement component 5 (C5) inhibitor (C5i) approved for the treatment of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) following positive results from two pivotal trials in patients with PNH originally naive to C5i treatment and eculizumab-experienced patients with PNH. In both trials, after the 26week primary evaluation period, all patients received ravulizumab for up to 6 years. To report ravulizumab treatment outcomes in patients with PNH originally naive to C5i treatment and eculizumab-experienced patients with PNH treated for up to 6 years.

Background: Postprandial glucose concentration 1-h (1 h-PG) after an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) has similar or superior performance to 2 h-PG in predicting type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in several populations, and is simpler to obtain in clinical practice. However, studies in Asians are scarce. We investigated the utility of elevated baseline 1 h-PG in predicting T2DM incidence within three years, and its relationship with β-cell function in 1250 non-diabetic Asian participants.

Atrial fibrillation and heart failure have both been suggested to increase stroke and dementia risk. However, in observational studies, reversed causation and unmeasured confounding may occur. To mitigate these issues, this study aims to investigate if higher genetic risk for atrial fibrillation and heart failure increases dementia and stroke risk.
