News Improving treatment outcomes of HF with preserved ejection fraction according to JACC: What does the success of gliflozins mean for the future?

The Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC) recently issued a scientific statement in which the authors thoroughly examined current knowledge on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction of the left ventricle (HFpEF). Recent studies in this heterogeneous disease suggest the importance of carefully determining the HFpEF phenotype in a given patient based on pathophysiology, which enables better individualization of treatment. The authors also reflect on the success of gliflozins in treating HFpEF and how HFpEF pharmacotherapy can be further improved.

News Bimekizumab in 3rd Line Biological Treatment After Risankizumab Failure –⁠ Case Study

The possibilities of biological therapy for severe forms of psoriasis are very broad today. Achieving remission or reducing disease activity by 90-100% from the baseline state (PASI 90-100) is highly probable, especially when using biological drugs from the IL-17 or IL-23 inhibitor groups. However, individually, patients may exhibit primary or secondary resistance even when using these preparations, necessitating a change in biological treatment. The following case study presents the case of a young man who achieved complete disease remission with bimekizumab after the previous failure of ixekizumab and risankizumab.

News Wireless Smart Devices Monitor Health by Detecting Sounds

The human body continuously emits various forms of acoustic-mechanical signals that can provide important information about its health. Researchers from Northwestern University in the USA have developed miniature wearable devices (wearables) capable of simultaneously detecting sounds from multiple locations on the body, thereby continuously monitoring the health of the wearer. In a pilot project, the devices were tested on prematurely born infants with breathing and intestinal motility disorders and on adults with chronic lung diseases.

News Tiapride versus Haloperidol in the Therapy of Aggressiveness and Agitation in Elderly Patients with Cognitive Impairment

Acute restlessness, agitation, and aggression can be associated with psychiatric disorders but also be manifestations of somatic illnesses. Psychomotor agitation combined with disorientation is typical, for example, in older individuals with cognitive impairments. The primary goal of therapy is to calm the patient, most often using antipsychotics. The clinical study presented below compared the efficacy and safety of the antipsychotics haloperidol and tiapride versus placebo in patients with acute agitation and aggression who were diagnosed with mild to moderate cognitive impairment.

News Bacterial Biofilm as a Complication of Respiratory Disease Treatment

One of the unique characteristics of certain microorganisms is their ability to form organized communities enveloped in extracellular polymeric matrix and firmly attached to a solid surface or interphase or forming aggregates, collectively referred to as biofilm. Clinically, the major issue is the formation of pathogenic and conditionally pathogenic organisms' biofilm on tissues (such as respiratory tracts) or the surfaces of various medical devices (including catheters and implants), as it represents a dangerous complication leading to the development of chronic, recurrent, and scarcely treatable conditions.
