Background: Cardiovascular disease causes vascular dementia and contributes to most clinical dementia. This is embodied in the concept of vascular contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia (VCID). The potent endogenous peptide endothelin-1 (ET1) causes small artery vasoconstriction and fibrosis.

Objectives: To examine the association between the age at onset of diabetes and the risk of all-cause mortality in a population of individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to identify risk factors associated with all-cause mortality in young-onset T2DM (YOD) patients in China.
Methods: This study utilized a cohort of 9759 patients who were diagnosed with T2DM and who were registered and enrolled in the National Basic Public Health Service Management Program in Qinghe District (now Qingjiangpu District) and Huai'an District, Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province, China. The patients were observed from November 2013 to July 2014, and all-cause mortality data were obtained by comprehensive matching with the Huai'an City Resident Mortality Database as of December 31, 2019.

Aims: Timely assessment of abnormal microvascular perfusion (MVP) may improve prognosis in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This study aimed to determine the clinical implications of contrast-flow quantitative flow ratio (cQFR) in evaluating abnormal MVP and subsequent outcomes among STEMI patients after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).
Methods: The study population consisted of 2 independent cohorts.
Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are more prevalent in the elderly. There is a lack of large animal models that allow the study of the impact of age on CKD and HFpEF in a translational fashion. This manuscript reports the first large preclinical model of CKD-HFpEF and metabolic derangements in naturally aged swine.

The current paper describes the creation of a simultaneous trimodal neuroimaging protocol. The authors detail their methodological design for a subsequent large-scale study, demonstrate the ability to obtain the expected physiologically induced responses across cerebrovascular domains, and describe the pitfalls experienced when developing this approach. Approach: Electroencephalography (EEG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) were combined to provide an assessment of neuronal activity, microvascular oxygenation, and upstream artery velocity, respectively.
