Abstract Since its introduction to clinical practice, coronary artery stent implantation has become a crucial part of the therapy disease (CAD). Despite undeniable evolution percutaneous revascularization procedures, drug‐eluting (DES) technology shows some limitations. To overcome these limitations bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BRS) were designed as vessel‐supporting allowing for anatomical and functional restoration vessel after scaffold intended resorption. Various materials have been proposed basis backbone. In this narrative review, we present second‐generation magnesium‐alloy devices (Magmaris; Biotronik). Additionally, discuss available preclinical data regarding new magnesium BRS.

Abstract Background The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is closely associated with the onset diabetes, obesity being a significant risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, association between AIP and T2DM in overweight obese populations has been infrequently studied. Therefore, this study aimed to explore individuals T2DM. Methods This cross-sectional analysis utilized data from 40,633 participants body mass (BMI) ≥ 24 kg/m who were screened January 2018 December 2023 at Henan Provincial People’s Hospital. Participants categorized into groups without according criteria. AIP, our dependent variable, was calculated using formula log10 [(TG mol/L)/HDL-C (mol/L)]. We investigated multivariate logistic regression, subgroup analysis, generalized additive models, smoothed curve fitting, threshold effect analysis. Additionally, mediation evaluated role inflammatory cells AIP-related Results Overweight patients exhibited higher levels than those diabetes. After adjusting confounders, results indicated (odds ratio (OR) = 5.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) 4.69–5.69). Notably, high baseline (Q4 group) had significantly greater Q1 group, an OR 3.18 (95% CI 2.94–3.45). Subgroup revealed that decreased increasing age (interaction P < 0.001). In populations, displayed J-shaped nonlinear pattern, > – 0.07 indicating increase risk.

Insulin resistance (IR) is the major mechanism in pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Early identification IR great significance for preventing onset T2DM and delaying progression disease. Previous studies have shown that triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index can be used as an effective surrogate marker IR. There a significant correlation between TyG its common complications. In addition, predictive efficacy better than other indicators. may not only become important to identify people at high risk complications, but also expected strong predictor prognosis these diseases.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains the leading cause of death worldwide and risk a major event is highest among those with established disease. Ongoing management these patients relies on accurate assessment their response to any prescribed therapy, residual risk, in order optimize treatment. Recent international guidelines position statements concur that plasma concentration apolipoprotein B (apoB) most measure lipoprotein associated ASCVD risk. This especially true for growing number individuals diabetes, obesity, or metabolic syndrome, statin therapy. Most guidelines, however, continue promote LDL-C as primary marker due uncertainty whether greater accuracy apoB sufficient warrant paradigm shift. Recommendations regarding measurement vary, information provided how interpret results sometimes insufficient, particularly non-lipid specialists. Misinformation reliability assays also frequently repeated despite its equivalent better standardization than many other diagnostic assays. Thus, demand testing relatively low, which means there little incentive increase availability reduce cost. In this review, we examine recent clinical outcomes studies meta-analyses relative values apoB, LDL-C, non-HDL-C markers Although seemingly minimal difference when only population-based metrics are considered, it evident from our analysis that, personalized precision medicine standpoint, would benefit, at negligible total cost, if were integrated into diagnosis treatment ASCVD.
