    SURPASS-CVOT Looks Beyond the Heart: Tirzepatide Signals Benefits in Infection Mortality, Patient-Reported Outcomes (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    MILAN —New analyses from the SURPASS-CVOT trial suggest that differences between tirzepatide and dulaglutide in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and established cardiovascular disease (CVD) may extend beyond traditional cardiovascular outcomes, with signals emerging in favor of tirzepatide for lower noncardiovascular mortality and improvements in patient-reported health and daily functioning. The findings prompted discussion here at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) 2026

    HRT Plus Exercise Improves Insulin Sensitivity (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    MILAN —Combining hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with exercise produced the largest observed improvement in insulin sensitivity among postmenopausal women compared to exercise or HRT alone, interim results from a 12-week randomized study showed. Exercise, both with and without HRT, also substantially improved physical strength and increased peak aerobic capacity. HRT plus exercise produced a slightly greater reduction in fat mass than exercise alone, with both exercise groups showing significa

    Tricuspid Repair Cuts Death, HF Hospitalization in Severe TR (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    MUNICH — Transcatheter tricuspid valve repair added to medical therapy substantially reduced the risk for death or heart failure (HF) hospitalization compared with medical therapy alone in high-risk patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR), according to results from the randomized Tricuspid Intervention in HF (TRIC-I-HF) trial. At 3 years, tricuspid repair plus medical therapy was associated with a 60% lower risk for death or HF hospitalization than medical therapy alone. “Tricuspid rep

    Faster 1-Hour MI Rule-Out Is Safe (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    MUNICH — Switching from a 3-hour to a 1-hour high-sensitivity cardiac troponin pathway for patients with suspected myocardial infarction (MI) was safe, but unexpectedly, did not shorten emergency department (ED) stays in a large, pragmatic, real-world trial. Despite delivering the second troponin result about 2 hours earlier, the accelerated pathway left median ED length of stay unchanged at 309 minutes, suggesting that simply making diagnostic information available sooner may not be enough to i

    Edoxaban Falls Short After Intracranial Hemorrhage in AF (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    MUNICH — Edoxaban did not reduce the overall risk of stroke or systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who had previously experienced an intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), according to results of the randomized ENRICH-AF trial. Although anticoagulation reduced ischemic stroke, this benefit was offset by an increase in hemorrhagic stroke and major bleeding, leaving no overall clinical benefit in an unselected population of ICH survivors with AF. “Our findings do not support the us
