Article Abstract
Underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasingly considered to be a key issue in the pathophysiology of type 2 myocardial infarction (T2MI). In T2MI, which is attributable to a mismatch between oxygen supply/demand, CAD is common and appears to be more severe than in type 1 myocardial infarction (T1MI). Little is known about the heterogeneous mechanisms that cause supply/demand imbalance and non-coronary triggers leading to myocardial ischemia or about how they are potentially modulated by the presence and severity of CAD. CAD seems to be underrecognized and undertreated in T2MI, even though previous studies have demonstrated both the short and long-term prognostic value of CAD in T2MI. In this literature review, we attempt to address the prevalence and severity of CAD, challenges in the discrimination between T2MI and T1MI in the presence of CAD, and the prognostic value of CAD among patients with T2MI.

Ranolazine-Induced Type 1 Brugada Pattern.
JACC Case Rep

Cardiovascular Diseases Section, Interdisciplinary Department of Medicine (DIM), University of Bari "Aldo Moro," Bari, Italy.
Background: Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a rare inherited arrhythmia disease carrying a variable risk of sudden cardiac death. Diagnosis requires the type 1 Brugada electrocardiographic pattern, which can either be spontaneous or induced by sodium channel-blocking drugs. Ranolazine is an antianginal drug acting on the late sodium current with emerging antiarrhythmic properties; no information is available on the safety of ranolazine use in patients with BrS.

Liraglutide is a key therapeutic agent in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with benefits extending beyond glycemic control to address cardiovascular and renal comorbidities. As T2DM prevalence rises globally, the need for medications that provide comprehensive health benefits becomes increasingly important. Liraglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing cardiovascular events, especially among patients with high cardiovascular risk, such as those with a prior history of myocardial infarction or stroke.

Introduction: The aim of this article is to compare the long-term efficacy of Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) versus Optimal Medical Therapy (OMT) in reducing mortality among adult patients with uncomplicated Stanford type B aortic dissection (uSTBAD).
Methods: An electronic search of PubMed, Cochrane Central and Google Scholar was conducted for studies comparing TEVAR with OMT for mortality in adult patients with uSTBAD. Relevant outcomes, including mortality, aortic rupture, re-intervention, retrograde type A dissection, myocardial infarction and stroke were analyzed and presented as risk ratios (RRs) along with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).

One of the most prevalent metabolic diseases in recent years, type 2 diabetes is now one of the top causes of death globally and a significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the goal of this study is to investigate the impact of HIIT exercises on the levels of specific proteins associated with mitochondrial biogenesis and apoptosis in the heart tissue of male Wistar rats with type 2 diabetes. Animals in diabetic groups were given a high-fat diet and an intraperitoneal injection of STZ to cause diabetes.

Cardiac adipose tissue is normally present in the epicardium, but a variable amount can also be present in the myocardium, particularly in the subepicardial regions of the right ventricular anterolateral and apical regions. Pathological adipose tissue changes may occur in both ischemic (previous myocardial infarction) and nonischemic (previous myocarditis, arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum, cardiac lipomas and liposarcomas) conditions, with or without extensive replacement-type myocardial fibrosis. Cardiac magnetic resonance is the gold standard imaging technique to characterize myocardial tissue changes and to distinguish between physiological and pathological cardiac fat deposits.
