Mashup Score: 2Pragmatic trials, a step forward to assess cardiovascular efficacy of new glucose-lowering agents - 7 month(s) ago
Cardiovascular disease represents a major burden in people with type 2 diabetes, and the prevention of cardiovascular complications has become a main objective when treating at-risk people. Numerous cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) were published in recent years that showed not only the cardiovascular safety, but also the efficacy, of new glucose-lowering therapies. However, almost all CVOTs used a placebo as comparator rather than an active agent, and there were no CVOTs that directly compared the cardiovascular effects between newer glucose-lowering agents—especially SGLT2 inhibitors versus GLP-1 receptor agonists.

Mashup Score: 1
Both SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with reduced risk of MACE compared with DPP-4 inhibitors or sulfonylureas. DPP-4 inhibitors were associated with reduced risk of MACE compared with sulfonylureas. There was no statistically significant difference in risk of MACE between SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP-1 receptor agonists. The results provide evidence of the real-world comparative effectiveness of the four most commonly used second-line antihyperglycaemics and could guide choice of antihyperglycaemic therapy.

Mashup Score: 1Increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with resistance to thyroid hormone - 7 month(s) ago
The main actions of thyroid hormone are induced through binding of the bioactive hormone T3 to nuclear thyroid hormone receptors (TRs).1 There are two receptor types, encoded by the genes THRA and THRB, with differing tissue expressions. TRα1 is primarily expressed in the heart, bone, gastrointestinal tract, skeletal muscle, and brain. TRβ1 is abundantly expressed and is the predominant form in the liver and kidneys, whereas TRβ2 has a more limited expression, including the hypothalamus and pituitary gland.

Mashup Score: 1Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients in Wales, UK with resistance to thyroid hormone β (RTHβ): a linked-record cohort study - 7 month(s) ago
We have documented reduced survival and increased cardiovascular morbidity in a cohort of patients with RTHβ for the first time. These outcomes might be driven by lifelong cardiac exposure to thyroid hormone excess; and effective therapies, targeting hormone resistant pathways, could potentially curtail this risk.

Mashup Score: 4
There was a J-shaped association of FT4 with cardiovascular disease and mortality. Low concentrations of TSH were associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality. The 20–40th percentiles of FT4 and the 60–80th percentiles of TSH could represent the optimal healthy ranges of thyroid function based on the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality, with more than 5% increase of 10-year composite risk identified for FT4 greater than the 85th percentile in women and men older than 70 years.

Mashup Score: 2
For decades, there has been controversy about whether testosterone therapy has deleterious effects on the risk of major cardiovascular events in older men. As the number of prescriptions for testosterone therapy has escalated, this controversy has heightened.1 Although some epidemiological studies have suggested an association between testosterone therapy and risk of major cardiovascular events, an equal (or greater) number of epidemiological studies have demonstrated no increase or even a decreased risk associated with testosterone therapy.
