Triple therapy with angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs)/amlodipine + rosuvastatin significantly reduces blood pressure (BP) and cholesterol levels in patients with hypertension and dyslipidaemia compared with dual therapies involving ARBs/amlodipine or ARBs + rosuvastatin, according to a recent study.

Radiofrequency vs pulsed field ablation: Which approach results in fewer stroke/TIA events?
A single-centre study has found a significantly higher incidence of stroke and transient ischaemic attacks (TIA) within 30 days among patients who underwent pulsed field ablation (PFA) relative to those who received radiofrequency ablation (RFA).
