πŸ”΅ BPROAD Trial: Intensive BP Control in Type 2 Diabetes 🩺

πŸ”Ή Background
Optimal BP targets in Type 2 diabetes remain uncertain.

πŸ”Ή Methods
β€’ Enrolled 12,821 patients (age β‰₯50) across 145 sites in China
β€’ Randomised to BP targets: <120 mmHg (intensive) vs <140 mmHg (standard)
β€’ Follow-up: median 4.2 years

πŸ”Ή Results
β€’ Primary outcomes: 1.65 events/100 person-years (intensive) vs 2.09 events (standard)
β€’ HR: 0.79 (P<0.001)

⚠️ Higher hypotension & hyperkalemia in intensive group.

Conclusions: Intensive BP control (<120 mmHg) significantly reduces major CV events in T2DM.

πŸ”— Full Guidelines

πŸ”Ή No Routine Treatment
The AHA advises against routine antihypertensive treatment for asymptomatic elevated BP in acute settings.

πŸ”Ή Prioritise Hypertensive Emergencies
Immediate intervention is recommended only for cases with signs of target organ damage.

πŸ”Ή Accurate Measurement Matters
Ensure proper BP measurement technique and device calibration to prevent misreadings.

πŸ”Ή Plan for Outpatient Follow-Up
Restart home BP medications as appropriate and arrange outpatient follow-up for sustained care.

[Comment] Integrative medicine for the treatment of stroke
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)02257-8/fulltext?rss=yes

Intracerebral haemorrhage is a devastating and less treatable type of stroke.1 Globally, intracerebral haemorrhage constitutes approximately one-third of all incident strokes and nearly half of the disability-adjusted life-years attributed to stroke.2 Burden of intracerebral haemorrhage is more prominent in low-income to middle-income countries, where unidentified and uncontrolled hypertension is an outstanding risk factor. Intracerebral haemorrhage accounts for 24% of incident stroke cases in China, and in some regions of central China it accounts for 60% of all strokes.

This large, randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind, clinical trial showed no effect of the traditional Chinese medicine herbal compound FYTF-919 on functional recovery, survival, and health-related quality of life in patients with moderate to severe intracerebral haemorrhage. The results reaffirm the need for methodologically rigorous, randomised controlled trials to evaluate the effectiveness of existing therapies, including traditional Chinese medicines that are already in widespread use throughout the world.

πŸ“Š Understanding Body Roundness Index (BRI)

The Body Roundness Index (BRI) is a geometrical measure of body fat distribution based on height and waist circumference 🧬.

Unlike BMI, which considers only height and weight, BRI captures body fat distribution, adding valuable insights into health risk.

Latest Research Findings on BRI:

1. JAMA Network Open, 2024: This study uncovered a U-shaped association between BRI and all-cause mortalityβ€”showing both low and high BRI levels linked with higher mortality risks.
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2819558

2. Nature Scientific Reports, 2024: Another study revealed a strong link between food insecurity and elevated BRI and ABSI (body shape index), particularly affecting women across different age groups. The findings underscore food insecurity as a critical factor in obesity and body fat distribution.

πŸ”¬ Autoantibodies Targeting Nephrin in Podocytopathies

πŸ“„ Key Points:

β€’ The study by Hengel et al. claims to show autoantibodies targeting nephrin in patients with podocytopathies like minimal change disease and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).
β€’ However, they did not directly detect antinephrin autoantibodies using Western blots or ELISAs.

πŸ’‘ Interesting Findings:

β€’ The study relies on indirect methods, using agarose protein G beads to recover recombinant nephrin, suggesting potential autoantibody presence.

πŸ”‘ Conclusion:
More direct evidence is needed to confirm the presence of antinephrin autoantibodies in podocytopathies.
