Aims: In VERTIS CV, ertugliflozin was associated with a 30% risk reduction for adjudication-confirmed, first and total hospitalizations for heart failure (HHF) in participants with type 2 diabetes and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We evaluated the impact of ertugliflozin on the broader spectrum of all reported heart failure (HF) events independent of adjudication confirmation.

Methods And Results: Data from participants who received ertugliflozin (5 or 15 mg) were pooled and compared versus placebo.

Exercise promotes peripheral glycolysis in skeletal muscle through miR-204 induction via the HIF-1α pathway.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Laboratory of Biochemistry, College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungnam National University, 99 Daehak-Ro, Yuseong-Gu, Daejeon, 34134, Korea.

The mechanisms underlying exercise-induced insulin sensitization are of great interest, as exercise is a clinically critical intervention for diabetic patients. Some microRNAs (miRs) are secreted from skeletal muscle after exercise where they regulate insulin sensitivity, and have potential as diagnostic markers in diabetic patients. miR-204 is well-known for its involvement in development, cancer, and metabolism; however, its role in exercise-induced glycemic control remains unclear.

Method for measuring cervical vagal nerve activity in conscious rats.

Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab

January 2025

Autonomic Physiology Laboratory, Faculty of Life Science and Human Technology, Nara Women's University, Kita-Uoya Nishimachi, Nara, 630-8506, Japan.

The current study aimed to propose a method to directly measure right cervical vagal nerve activity (cVNA) alongside renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) in conscious rats. The right cervical vagus nerve was surgically exposed and fitted with a bipolar electrode to record cVNA. A microcatheter was used to administer levobupivacaine to selectively block afferent cVNA.

Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can lead to sudden cardiac death. The role of ventricular tachycardia ablation (VTA) in CS has been investigated in a few small, single-center, and larger observational studies, but the evidence still needs to be provided. This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of VTA in patients with CS admitted with a diagnosis of VT.

Purpose: To evaluate changes in the retinal microvasculature using widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) following three anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) loading injections for diabetic macular edema (DME).

Methods: Thirty-four treatment-naïve patients with DME received an initial three loading injections, followed by injections on an as-needed basis. Macular ischemia was evaluated based on the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, perfusion density, and vessel density on a 3 × 3-mm SS-OCTA image.
