Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke is increasingly prevalent at younger ages but the risk factors are uncertain. We examined the association between adolescent cognitive function and early-onset stroke. METHODS This was a nationwide population-based cohort study of 1 741 345 Israeli adolescents (42% women) who underwent comprehensive cognitive function tests at age 16-20 years, before mandatory military service, during 1987-2012. Cognitive function (range: 1-9) was categorised as low (1-3, corresponding to IQ score below 89), medium (4-7, IQ score range: 89-118), or high (8-9, IQ score above 118). Participant data were linked to the Israeli National Stroke Registry. Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate risks for the first occurrence of ischaemic stroke during 2014-2018. RESULTS During 8 689 329 person-years of follow-up, up to a maximum age of 50 years, 908 first stroke events occurred (767 ischaemic and 141 haemorrhagic). Compared with a reference group of people with high cognitive function, body mass index-adjusted and sociodemographic-adjusted HRs (95% CIs) for early-onset stroke were 1.78 (1.33-2.38) in medium and 2.68 (1.96-3.67) in low cognitive function groups. There was evidence of a dose-response relationship (P for trend <0.0001) such that one-unit of lower cognitive function z-score was associated with a 33% increased risk of stroke (1.33; 1.23-1.42). These associations were similar for ischaemic stroke but lower for haemorrhagic stroke; persisted in sensitivity analyses that accounted for diabetes status and hypertension; and were evident before age 40 years. CONCLUSIONS Alongside adolescent obesity and hypertension, lower cognitive function may be a risk factor for early-onset stroke.

Abstract
Stroke affects up to one in five people during their lifetime in some high-income countries, and up to almost one in two in low-income countries. Globally, it is the second leading cause of death. Clinically, the disease is characterised by sudden neurological deficits. Vascular aetiologies contribute to the most common causes of ischaemic stroke, including large artery disease, cardioembolism, and small vessel disease. Small vessel disease is also the most frequent cause of intracerebral haemorrhage, followed by macrovascular causes. For acute ischaemic stroke, multimodal CT or MRI reveal infarct core, ischaemic penumbra, and site of vascular occlusion. For intracerebral haemorrhage, neuroimaging identifies early radiological markers of haematoma expansion and probable underlying cause. For intravenous thrombolysis in ischaemic stroke, tenecteplase is now a safe and effective alternative to alteplase. In patients with strokes caused by large vessel occlusion, the indications for endovascular thrombectomy have been extended to include larger core infarcts and basilar artery occlusion, and the treatment time window has increased to up to 24 h from stroke onset. Regarding intracerebral haemorrhage, prompt delivery of bundled care consisting of immediate anticoagulation reversal, simultaneous blood pressure lowering, and prespecified stroke unit protocols can improve clinical outcomes. Guided by underlying stroke mechanisms, secondary prevention encompasses pharmacological, vascular, or endovascular interventions and lifestyle modifications.

Abstract
This study explores the computational discovery of non-peptide agonists targeting the Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor (GLP-1R) to enhance the safety of major coronary outcomes in individuals affected by Type 2 Diabetes. The objective is to identify novel compounds that can activate the GLP-1R pathway without the limitations associated with peptide agonists. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, which is attributed to the accumulation of fat in organs, including the heart. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are frequently used to manage T2DM and could potentially offer cardiovascular benefits. Therefore, this study examines non-peptide agonists of GLP-1R to improve coronary safety in type 2 diabetes patients. After rigorous assessments, two standout candidates were identified, with natural compound 12 emerging as the most promising. This study represents a notable advancement in enhancing the management of coronary outcomes among individuals with type 2 diabetes. The computational methodology employed successfully pinpointed potential GLP-1R natural agonists, providing optimism for the development of safer and more effective therapeutic interventions. Although computational methodologies have provided crucial insights, realizing the full potential of these compounds requires extensive experimental investigations, crucial in advancing therapeutic strategies for this critical patient population.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type-2 diabetes (T2D) poses a higher risk of noncardiovascular mortality in addition to the burden of cardiovascular mortality. The well-established cardiovascular benefits of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) could solely explain their apparent effects on all-cause mortality in T2D. The present meta-analysis aims to pool their effects on noncardiovascular mortality in T2D and summarize the recent evidence on plausible pathways mediating these effects. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and clinical trial registries were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with ≥1-year duration in adults with T2D reporting both cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in treatment versus placebo arms (PROSPERO: CRD42022337559). Noncardiovascular mortality was calculated by subtracting cardiovascular mortality events from all-cause mortality and risk ratios (RRs) were calculated. Random-effects meta-analysis was done. GRADE framework was used to assess evidence quality. RESULTS We identified 17 eligible RCTs pooling data retrieved from 109,892 patients. Randomization to GLP-1 RA treatment versus placebo was associated with reduced noncardiovascular mortality (RR = 0.90; 95%CI: 0.81-0.99; I2 = 0 %; p < 0.05), consistent with their effects on cardiovascular mortality (RR = 0.88; 95%CI: 0.81-0.95; I2 = 0 %; p < 0.01) in T2D. Compared to placebo, SGLT2i significantly reduced noncardiovascular mortality (RR = 0.90; 95%CI: 0.82-0.99; I2 = 0 %; p < 0.05) along with cardiovascular mortality (RR = 0.84; 95%CI: 0.77-0.92; I2 = 28 %; p < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed no significant effects of heart failure or renal function on treatment benefits of SGLT2i on noncardiovascular mortality (p value > 0.2 for subgroup differences). CONCLUSION The impact of GLP-1RAs and SGLT2i on mortality in people with T2D extends beyond their cardiovascular benefits.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a complication of diabetes that can lead to kidney failure. Over the years, several drugs have been developed to combat this disease. In the early 90s, angiotensin blockade (ACEi and ARBs) was introduced, which revolutionized the treatment of DKD. In recent years, newer drugs such as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, endothelin antagonists, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) have shown great promise in reducing albuminuria and protecting the kidneys. These drugs are being used in combination with lifestyle modifications, patient education, and risk factor modification to effectively manage DKD. In this review, we will explore the latest pharmacological options, their efficacy, and their potential to revolutionize the management of this debilitating disease.

Abstract
Stroke represents a major burden in patients with type 2 diabetes, yet this cerebrovascular complication has been less carefully investigated than the risk of cardiovascular mortality, heart failure and renal disease. Some data suggested that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) exert a better protection against stroke than sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is). However, this conclusion was derived from indirect comparisons in absence of any head-to-head randomised controlled trial (RCT). The present comprehensive review compares the effects of SGLT2is versus GLP-1RAs on nonfatal and fatal/nonfatal strokes in network meta-analyses of RCTs (mostly cardiovascular outcome trials) versus placebo, on the one hand, and in real-life observational cohort studies, on the other hand. Whereas network meta-analyses of placebo-controlled RCTs confirm a slight but significant (in 11 out of 13 meta-analyses) higher incidence of stroke in patients treated with SGLT2is compared with those treated with GLP-1RAs, a large majority of retrospective observational cohort studies (19 out of 21) failed to find any significant difference in the risk of stroke between the two pharmacological classes. Available, yet limited, findings suggest that SGLT2is may be more efficacious against haemorrhagic than ischaemic strokes, in patients at risk for atrial fibrillation and in patients with chronic kidney disease.
