Stopping statins was noninferior at 2 years in adults 70 and older without CVD, but events were higher over full follow-up (12.7% vs 9.2%).
Post hoc phase 2 data show survodutide improved MASH and fibrosis endpoints across all weight loss categories, including patients losing less than 5%.
Asundexian lowered ischemic stroke without more major bleeding across low, intermediate, and high Framingham risk groups (all P interaction > .25).
Adding spironolactone lowered 3-month home SBP by 7.7 mm Hg vs standard care in 160 stroke survivors with uncontrolled hypertension.
A systolic target below 120 mm Hg lowered major cardiovascular events vs below 140 mm Hg in 4368 patients with prior ischemic stroke or TIA.
