6-lead ECG device simplifies QT interval monitoring in RR-TB
A handheld, 6-lead electrocardiographic (ECG) device may be an effective triage test that could reduce the need for 12-lead ECG monitoring in resource-limited, rifampin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) treatment settings, according to a diagnostic prospective cohort study.
Higher serum 25(OH)D concentration tied to lower CVD, deaths in CKD
Increased concentrations of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) appear to have beneficial effects in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), as indicated by lower risks of cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence and mortality, as shown in a prospective study.
Reduced-dose DOACs tied to lower stroke incidence vs warfarin
Patients with atrial fibrillation receiving a reduced dose of direct acting oral anticoagulants (DOAC), particularly rivaroxaban and dabigatran, show a similar incidence of ischaemic stroke and systemic embolism to those receiving warfarin, a study has shown.
Testosterone therapy in women may lower risks of MACE, breast cancer
Women on testosterone therapy (TTh) show a lower risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) than matched controls, while postmenopausal women have a comparable MACE risk and a similar or significantly reduced risk of breast cancer on age-based subanalysis, reports a study.
