Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and impact of depression and anxiety symptoms on post-operative prognosis and 1-year all-cause mortality in a large unique cohort of patients with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) after partial foot amputation (PFA).
Methods: Prospective cohort study with 1-year follow-up of 785 consecutive patients (mean age 60.9 ± 9.1 years; 64.1% males) with T2D and PAD after PFA. Depressive symptoms were assessed by Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and anxiety symptoms by Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). We used multivariable Cox proportional hazard models to examine the association of depression and anxiety with all-cause mortality.
Results: One-year all-cause mortality was 16.9% (n = 133). 331 (42.1%) patients had PHQ-9 score ≥ 10 indicating major depressive disorder. After adjusting for confounders, PHQ-9 score ≥ 10 was associated with an increased risk of 1-year all-cause mortality (HR = 1.68 (95%CI[1.16-2.44], p = 0.006). Depression dimensions of negative self-feeling and suicidal ideations were independently associated with 1-year mortality (HR = 1.26 (95%CI[1.24-1.55], p = 0.029 and HR = 2.37 (95%CI[1.89-2.96], p < 0.001, respectively). Compared to no depression, severe depressive symptoms (cut-off≥20) were associated with increased all-cause mortality (HR = 3.9 (95%CI [1.48-10.29], p = 0.006). Compared to no anxiety, severe anxiety symptoms (cut-off>30) were associated with increased 1-year mortality (HR = 2.25(95%CI [1.26-4.05], p = 0.006).
Conclusion: Depressive symptoms and severe anxiety have shown independently increased risk of 1-year all-cause mortality in patients with T2D and PAD requiring PFA. Our results indicate that screening for anxiety and depression should be considered under these circumstances to identify patients at increased risk to allow appropriate intervention.

Objective: The oxidative balance score (OBS) has emerged as a novel marker for assessing oxidative stress status. This study aimed to investigate the association of OBS with systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), all-cause, and cardiovascular disease mortality in hypertensive patients.
Methods: We conducted an analysis of data from 7602 hypertensive patients from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2018.

Aims: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is more common in certain ethnic groups. This systematic review compares mortality risk between people with T2D from different ethnic groups and includes recent larger studies.
Methods: We searched nine databases using PRISMA guidelines (PROSPERO CRD42022372542).

Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) causes increased health care resource utilization (HCRU) and costs in the United States. People with T2D are more likely to have atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Medical associations recommend cardioprotective antidiabetic medications, including sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with T2D with established, or a high risk of, ASCVD, but not all eligible patients receive these medications.

Unlabelled: The combination of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with outflow tract obstruction, severe pre-capillary and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension, and severe primary mitral regurgitation is rare and presents distinct management challenges.
Background And Clinical Significance: Pulmonary hypertension is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy managed medically and often precludes patients from undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass due to increased surgical morbidity and mortality. In studies specifically evaluating surgical myectomy, however, survival is favorable in patients with moderate-to-severe pulmonary hypertension.

Background: Liver transplant (LT) patients face various challenges, including an increased risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) for a variety of reasons, with 70% of LT recipients having one cardiovascular event. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains one of the most commonly performed major surgical procedures in the United States, with 20-30% of LT patients requiring a CABG. Many studies have analyzed when to perform a CABG and CAD workup pre-LT, but this population remains a problem.
