The Role of SGLT2-Inhibitors Across All Stages of Heart Failure and Mechanisms of Early Clinical Benefit: From Prevention to Advanced Heart Failure by Simone Pasquale Crispino, Andrea Segreti, Vincenzo Nafisio, Daniele Valente, Filippo Crisci, Aurora Ferro, Ilaria Cavallari, Annunziata Nusca, Gian Paolo Ussia, Francesco Grigioni

“…However, the integration of SGLT2i into guideline-directed medical therapy poses practical challenges, including initiation timing, dosing, and monitoring, which are addressed to support effective treatment adaptation across patient populations. Ultimately, this review provides a comprehensive assessment of SGLT2i as a foundational therapy in HF, emphasizing their role as an intervention across multiple stages aimed at improving outcomes across the entire HF spectrum.…”

Spectrum of γ-Secretase dysfunction as a unifying predictor of ADAD age at onset across PSEN1, PSEN2 and APP causal genes by Sara Gutiérrez Fernández, Cristina Gan Oria, Dieter Petit, Wim Annaert, John M. Ringman, Nick C. Fox, Natalie S. Ryan, Lucía Chávez-Gutiérrez

“…Conclusion This study supports a unified model of ADAD pathogenesis wherein γ-secretase dysfunction and the resulting shifts in Aβ profiles are central to disease onset across all causal genes. While similar shifts in Aβ occur across causal genes, their impact on AAO varies in the function of their contribution to APP processing in the brain. …”

Sexual partner number and distribution over time affect long-term partner evaluation: evidence from 11 countries across 5 continents by Andrew G. Thomas, William Costello, Mons Bendixen, Leif Edward Ottesen Kennair, Menelaos Apostolou, Klára Bártová, Ondřej Burýšek, Rob Lowe, Peter Jonason, Marta Kowal, Yago Luksevicius de Moraes, O. Jiaqing, Piotr Sorokowski, Danielle Sulikowski, Zuzana Štěrbová, Jaroslava Varella Valentova, Marco Antonio Correa Varella, Yan Wang, Arnaud Wisman, Paula Wright, Steve Stewart-Williams

“…However, sexual encounters with new partners vary in frequency over time, providing an additional dimension of context not previously considered. Across three studies (N = 5,331) with 15 samples, we demonstrate that the impact of past partner number on a suitor’s desirability as a long-term partner varies as a function of distribution over time. …”
