Epigenetic scores for the circulating proteome as tools for disease prediction

Danni A. Gadd et al.

Summary: This study explores the relationship between DNA methylation and incident diseases using epigenome-wide data. By training and testing epigenetic scores, the researchers identified scores that are associated with various diseases. These scores can serve as valuable resources for disease prediction and risk stratification.

Ventricular-Arterial Coupling Derived From Proximal Aortic Stiffness and Aerobic Capacity Across the Heart Failure Spectrum

Nicola Riccardo Pugliese et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the ventricular-arterial coupling in heart failure patients and found that abnormal ventricular-arterial coupling is directly correlated with the severity of heart failure and worse functional capacity. Furthermore, heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction have worse ventricular-arterial coupling.

Type 2 diabetes

Ehtasham Ahmad et al.

Summary: Type 2 diabetes accounts for nearly 90% of global diabetes cases, with an increasing number of affected individuals, particularly among young people. Early detection and proactive management are crucial for preventing complications and reducing mortality. Technology and precision medicine offer potential improvements to treatment outcomes but face significant barriers.

Gene regulation by long non-coding RNAs and its biological functions

Luisa Statello et al.

Summary: Recent studies have shed new light on the biogenesis and functions of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), showcasing their diverse roles in gene regulation and signaling pathways, particularly in the contexts of neuronal disorders, immune responses, and cancer. The discovery of unique biogenesis pathways and subcellular localizations of lncRNAs has opened up potential therapeutic avenues for targeting lncRNAs in various biological and pathophysiological conditions.

Long Non-Coding RNAs as Key Modulators of Pancreatic β-Cell Mass and Function

Livia Lopez-Noriega et al.

Summary: Despite the lack of a complete understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetes, the roles of long non-coding RNAs in beta-cell biology are crucial for insights into the disease mechanism. Long non-coding RNAs play essential roles in maintaining beta-cell mass and function.

Using a Diabetes Risk Score to Identify Patients Without Diabetes at Risk for New Hyperglycemia in the Hospital

Carlos E. Mendez et al.

Summary: The study found that the CRS and HbA1C levels were significantly associated with the risk of developing NH in inpatient adults without diabetes. Most hospitalized patients did not have their HbA1C levels recorded in their medical records, suggesting that the CRS could be a useful tool for early identification and management of NH.

The Impact of lncRNAs in Diabetes Mellitus: A Systematic Review and In Silico Analyses

Cristine Dieter et al.

Summary: This study delved into the role of long non-coding RNAs in diabetes mellitus, identifying six lncRNAs that showed dysregulation in DM patients and participated in various metabolism-related pathways. These lncRNAs could potentially serve as biomarkers for diabetes mellitus.

Impact of epicardial adipose tissue on cardiovascular haemodynamics, metabolic profile, and prognosis in heart failure

Nicola R. Pugliese et al.

Summary: Echocardiographic epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has different impacts and prognoses in heart failure (HF) patients, with high EAT levels associated with adverse effects in HFpEF patients and low EAT levels related to negative outcomes in HFrEF patients.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus in older adults: clinical considerations and management

Srikanth Bellary et al.

Summary: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing among the aging population, presenting challenges in management due to patient heterogeneity, comorbidities, susceptibility to hypoglycemia, increased dependence on care, and frailty. This review focuses on the pathophysiological mechanisms of T2DM in older individuals, new evidence on frailty and sarcopenia, clinical difficulties related to age-associated comorbidities, and implications for guidelines and therapeutic options, highlighting the impact of T2DM on an aging society.
