The updated CHEST guideline on antithrombotic therapy for VTE includes 4 new PICO questions as well as updated recommendations based on newer evidence.
Hypertension, BMI Tied to Greater Burden of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease
Using Mendelian randomization, researchers investigated which cardiovascular risk factors are likely to be implicated in the etiology of cerebral small vessel disease.
Glycemic Control in Type 1 Diabetes and Use of Multiple Daily Injections
Glycemic control in people with type 1 diabetes is challenging. Researchers investigated whether a continuous glucose monitoring-based decision support system could help.
Comorbid Insomnia, Sleep Apnea and the Risk for All-Cause Mortality and CVD

Remnant Lipoprotein Cholesterol May Predict Fatty Liver Disease Risk
The role certain blood lipid components have in the development of fatty liver disease (FLD) has been hypothesized but not confirmed. Researchers studied whether there was a correlation between remnant lipoprotein cholesterol (RLP-C) and occurrence of FLD.
Obesity Mediates Diabetes Risk Associated With Cholesterol-Lowering Therapy
Increased type 2 diabetes risk has been observed with cholesterol-lowering drugs and may be mediated by increased body mass index. Investigators examined the link.
Increased Microscopic Brain Permeability Seen in Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome
In a prospective cohort study, researchers sought to examine microscopic blood-brain barrier permeability and its change in patients with reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome.
