Objectives: To explore the efficacy of ofatumumab in new onset narcolepsy type 1 following SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Methods: We present a 9-year-old girl who experienced new onset narcolepsy type 1 following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Polysomnography (PSG) followed by a daytime multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) was under taken after admission.

Background: Immunotherapy, including the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors such as nivolumab, is increasingly common in cancer treatment and can lead to various immune-related adverse effects, including rare cases of diabetic ketoacidosis. This case report highlights an unique instance of nivolumab-induced diabetic ketoacidosis in a patient without prior history of diabetes, emphasizing the importance of careful monitoring even in those without traditional risk factors.
Case Presentation: We report a case of a 70-year-old Caucasian male with metastatic esophageal adenocarcinoma who developed diabetic ketoacidosis 3 weeks after stopping nivolumab therapy.

Background: The use of beta-blockers in treating resistant hypertension remains poorly understood. While PATHWAY-2 showed a systolic blood pressure benefit with bisoprolol, further research is needed to evaluate other beta-blockers in terms of the effect of systolic blood pressure, assess diastolic blood pressure effects, and guide management in patients intolerant to CCBs as well.
Objectives: Our study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Carvedilol (non-selective beta-blocker with alpha-1 blocking function) in the management of resistant hypertension, including in patients intolerant to calcium channel blockers.

Background: Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been proven to prevent decline in kidney function and failure. Whether SGLT2i affect the risk of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) remains uncertain.
Methods: Use of SGLT2i was assessed in consecutive diabetics undergoing coronary angiography (CA) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from January 2020 to May 2023 at a tertiary hospital in Chongqing, China.

Background: Previous studies have examined clinical predictors of incident heart failure (HF) in men and women. However, potential mechanisms through which these clinical predictors relate to the onset of HF remain to be established.
Objectives: The authors studied the association between clinical and proteomic risk profiles of new-onset HF in men and women.
