Background: Recently two indicators - metabolic score for insulin resistance (METS-IR) and triglyceride glucose-BMI (TyG-BMI) have been proposed as surrogate markers of IR and potential cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of the study was to assess the predictive value of METS-IR and TyG-BMI concerning the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and all-cause mortality in 1-year follow-up among patients admitted with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods: Two thousand one hundred fifty-three patients with a median age of 68 years were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the type of AMI.
Results: MACE occurred in 7.9% of the patients in the ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group and in 10.9% of the non-STEMI (NSTEMI) group. No significant difference in median MACE-IR and TyG-BMI between patients with and without incidence of MACE was found in both groups. None of the examined indices were predictors of MACE in the STEMI and NSTEMI groups. Moreover, both of them did not predict MACE in subgroups of patients classified according to the presence of diabetes. Finally, METS-IR and TyG-BMI were significant predictors of 1-year morality, however with low prognostic value and only in univariate regression analysis.
Conclusion: METS-IR and TyG-BMI should not be used in predicting MACE among patients with AMI.

This case report highlights a potential vaccine safety concern associated with the Pseudorabies virus (PRV) live vaccine, which warrants further investigation for comprehensive understanding. Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT), a novel syndrome of adverse events following adenovirus vector COVID-19 vaccines, was observed after vaccination with Zoetis PR-VAC PLUS. This led to a 100% morbidity and high mortality among PRV-free Danish purebred pigs from Danish Genetics Co.

Introduction: Large administrative healthcare databases can be used for near real-time sequential safety surveillance of drugs as an alternative approach to traditional reporting-based pharmacovigilance. The study aims to build and empirically test a prospective drug safety monitoring setup and perform a sequential safety monitoring of rofecoxib use and risk of cardiovascular outcomes.
Methods: We used Danish population-based health registers and performed sequential analysis of rofecoxib use and cardiovascular outcomes using case-time-control and cohort study designs from January 2000 to September 2004.

Coronary artery disease remains a significant global health issue and is a leading cause of mortality. Dual antiplatelet therapy, including clopidogrel, is essential for preventing stent thrombosis after coronary artery stenting. This study assessed the comparative efficacy and safety of generic versus brand-name clopidogrel in a large Taiwanese cohort.

Background: Evolving evidence suggests that patients undergoing treatment with Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) may face an increased risk of cardiovascular events, malignancies, and serious infections.
Objectives: We assessed cardiovascular, malignancy, and serious infection risks associated with JAKi use compared to tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) use, which served as the active comparator, in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or ulcerative colitis (UC).
Methods: This study emulated a target trial using South Korea's nationwide claims database (2013-2023).
