LATIN AMERICAN SURVEILLANCE REGISTRY REVEALS HIGHER ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE IN INVASIVE ISOLATES FROM PATIENTS WITH CIRRHOSIS COMPARED TO EUROPEAN BENCHMARKS Open
Introduction and Objectives: Given the growing burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), we aimed to report the prevalence of key AMR patterns in Latin American patients with cirrhosis and compare them with the European Antimicrobial Resis…

The effect of sauna on cardiac and skeletal muscle function in patients with HFpEF (SAUNA-HFpEF): rationale and design Open
Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) often experience dyspnea, fatigue, and exercise intolerance, which are closely linked to skeletal muscle dysfunction and structural abnormalities. The only proven interve…

Assessing the potential for precision medicine in body weight reduction with regard to type 2 diabetes mellitus therapies: A meta‐regression analysis of 120 randomized controlled trials Open
Aims To assess the potential for precision medicine in type 2 diabetes by quantifying the variability of body weight as response to pharmacological treatment and to identify predictors which could explain this variability. Methods We used …

Assessing the potential for precision medicine of glucose-lowering drugs in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a meta-regression analysis considering body weight variability from 120 randomized trials Open
Background Thus far, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of glucose-lowering drugs reporting on treatment effects on body weight (BW) as cardiovascular risk factor in type 2 diabetes mellitus have not included precision medicine approaches…

Sex-based differences of copeptin for early rule-out of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction Open
Objective There is paucity of data on the role of sex in the dual biomarker strategy using copeptin and conventional troponin for the early rule-out of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We aimed to evaluate sex-based differe…

MicroRNAs as Regulators and Biomarkers of Platelet Function and Activity in Coronary Artery Disease Open
Microribonucleic acids (miRs) are small, noncoding ribonucleic acids (RNAs), which play an important role in the regulation of platelet function and activity. Several studies proposed a mechanistic role of platelet-related miRs in the path…
