Aim: We examined the serum lipid peroxidation potential as an estimate of systemic oxidative stress levels in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) for coronary artery disease (CAD) risk stratification.
Methods: We prospectively recruited patients and categorized them into four subgroups based on diabetes and severity of CAD [Gensini score <20, non-significant CAD; Gensini score >20, significant CAD]: non-diabetics with non-significant CAD, diabetics with non-significant CAD, non-diabetics with significant CAD and diabetics with significant CAD. Lipid profile, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, and oxidized LDL were assessed. A newly developed assay estimated serum lipid peroxidation potential.
Results: Circulatory oxidized LDL levels were significantly higher in patients with severe CAD compared to non-diabetics with non-significant CAD, however no significant differences were observed across the four subgroups. Diabetics with non-significant CAD demonstrated significantly elevated serum lipid peroxidation potential compared to non-diabetics with non-significant CAD. Intriguingly, serum lipid peroxidation potential was markedly elevated in diabetics with non-significant CAD compared to both diabetics and non-diabetics with significant CAD. Poor glycemic control and reduced blood total antioxidant capacity were the primary factors contributing to increased serum lipid peroxidation potential in diabetics with non-significant CAD group.
Conclusions: We found that people with T2D who are associated with non-significant CAD are more vulnerable to oxidative stress than those with significant CAD. The study demonstrates the application of 'serum lipid peroxidation potential' assay for risk-stratification of CAD in people with T2D.

Introduction: Cardiac computerized tomographic angiography (CCTA) is perceived as a non-invasive tool for assessment of coronary vessel anatomy. Feature tracking echocardiography has recently emerged as a tool for assessment of regional and global left ventricular function. We aimed to explore the applicability of echocardiographic strain on CCTA cine clips and assess whether global and regional strain parameters are associated with the extent of coronary stenosis.

Smoking is a well known risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the effects of smoking on gene expression in the blood of CAD subjects in Hungary have not been extensively studied. This study aimed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with smoking in CAD subjects.

Aim: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the patient satisfaction and marginal adaptation of milled BioHPP polyether ether ketone (PEEK) copings veneered with CAD/CAM composite resin and compare them to milled BioHPP PEEK copings veneered with manual layering.
Materials And Methods: A total of 32 patients required anterior crowns to restore discolored, fractured, or maligned anterior teeth. Patients were divided into two groups according to the type of restoration used.

Article Synopsis
- Individuals with long-term type 1 diabetes may have an increased risk of heart issues due to inflammation caused by gut microbiota entering the bloodstream, leading to atherosclerosis.
- A study involving 102 people with type 1 diabetes and 63 controls measured several biomarkers related to gut inflammation and assessed coronary atherosclerosis using advanced imaging techniques.
- The results indicated that higher levels of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) were linked to significant coronary artery blockages, suggesting it could be a potential marker for heart disease in diabetes patients.
