AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) within a population-based cohort, focusing on blood pressure, HbA1c levels, and lipid profiles.
- Data was analyzed from 7,197 adults, revealing that those with diabetes had a significantly higher risk of CVD events, especially when presenting with high blood pressure and lipid levels.
- The findings suggest that effective management of cardiovascular risk factors could help reduce the increased CVD risk associated with diabetes.
Article Abstract
Background: Globally, there has been a steady increase in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes, and the risk of cardiovascular disease has increased. The relationship between diabetes and the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) at different blood pressure, glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and lipid levels remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate these associations within a population-based cohort.
Material And Methods: We analysed data from the Guiyang subcentre of the China Cardiometabolic Disease and Cancer Cohort Study, which enrolled participants aged 40 years and older between 2011 and 2012. Subsequently, a follow-up visit was conducted during 2014-2016 to assess incident CVD events.
Results: The analysis included a cohort of 7197 adults, of whom 590 were diagnosed with diabetes. Among all the participants, the CVD events linked to diabetes had a multivariable adjusted hazard ratio of 2.37 [95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.38-4.08]. Patients with diabetes had a greater risk of experiencing CVD events if they had high blood pressure [hazard ratios (HR): 1.24, 95% CI: 1.39-4.21] and high lipid levels (HR: 2.19, 95% CI: 1.29-3.70) compared to people with normal blood pressure (HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 0.54-2.82) and lipid levels (HR: 1.26, 95% CI: 0.47-3.41).
Conclusions: Our analysis revealed a significant association between diabetes and an increased risk of subsequent CVD events, which can be mitigated through optimal management of the metabolic profile of cardiovascular risk factors.

Measurement of Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents Outside the Office for the Diagnosis of Hypertension.
Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Section of Pediatric Nephrology, Department of Pediatrics, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, USA.
Purpose Of Review: To review the benefits of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and home blood pressure monitoring in children and to discuss implementation of guideline-recommended ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.
Recent Findings: Compared with office blood pressure, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and home blood pressure monitoring provide superior accuracy, reproducibility, and stronger associations with target organ damage although future work is needed to determine the utility of home blood pressure monitoring to predict hypertension status on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Due to the benefits of out-of-office blood pressure measurement, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring has been recommended to confirm the diagnosis of hypertension in children and adolescents since publication of the 2017 American Academy of Pediatrics clinical practice guidelines on hypertension.

Purpose: The delayed or missed diagnosis of secondary hypertension contributes to the poor blood pressure control worldwide. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic approach to primary aldosteronism (PA) and pheochromocytoma (PHEO) among Italian centers associated to European and Italian Societies of Hypertension.
Methods: Between July and December 2023, a 10-items questionnaire was administered to experts from 82 centers of 14 Italian regions and to cardiologists from the ARCA (Associazioni Regionali Cardiologi Ambulatoriali) Piemonte.

Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is an autoimmune hemolytic anemia that induces blood coagulation and hemolysis upon exposure to cold temperatures. Strict temperature control is essential to mitigate these effects, especially during surgical procedures where hypothermia is possible.
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old male, 165 cm and 72 kg, diagnosed with CAD, underwent cerebral vascular anastomosis.

Department of Internal Medicine, Aristotle University, Hypertension, Hypertension-24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring center, Papageorgiou Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece.
Purpose Of The Review: Τhe association between nocturnal blood pressure (BP) and alterations in the retinal microvasculature remains understudied, with few available studies to provide conflicting results. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine whether an association exists between retinal microvascular alterations and nocturnal BP patterns, determined by 24h ambulatory BP measurement.
Recent Findings: Our search concluded to 1002 patients (6 studies).
