- Eosinophilic AE-COPD (blood eosinophils ≥300/μL within 3 days before to 1 day after the event), was associated with a significantly lower 1-year risk of major adverse cardiovascular events vs non-eosinophilic AE-COPD
- Eosinophilic AE-COPD was linked to reduced risks of heart failure, myocardial infarction, stroke, arrhythmias, and mortality, highlighting eosinophil count as a valuable cardiovascular risk biomarker.

- 4693 women followed for 10-14 yrs postpartum, showed GDM these subtypes: insulin-deficient (3%), insulin-resistant (9%), mixed-defect (1.6%), & unclassified (0.7%)
- Insulin-deficient, insulin-resistant, & mixed-defect GDM were linked to higher risk of prediabetes/diabetes vs no GDM (RR 2.14 to 2.88), metabolic syndrome, & higher predicted CVD risk; dyslipidemia was significant only with insulin-resistant GDM.
27 Aug, 26Lancet Prim Care.
- Amongst a multinational cohort of 5.84 million adults initiating antihypertensive therapy, 1.9% suffered with ADHD
- ADHD was associated with higher risk of MACE (HR:1.31, 95% CI 1.18-1.45) & all-cause mortality (HR:2.83, 95% CI 2.07-3.87)
- After adjustment for psychiatric/cardiometabolic comorbidities, risks attenuated
- ADHD medication was not associated with MACE (HR 1.00) or mortality (HR 0.96)
26 Aug, 26BMC Infect Dis
- A retrospective ICU study of hospital-acquired bloodstream infections caused by carbapenem-resistant and difficult-to-treat Gram-negative bacteria found an extremely high 28-day mortality rate (87.4%)
- Independent mortality predictors included older age, higher SOFA score, COVID-19 co-infection, and aminoglycoside resistance
- Early appropriate empirical antibiotics did not independently improve survival outcomes.
