Visit-to-visit blood pressure variability in patients with type 2 diabetes with and without previous history of cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: Visit-to-visit variability of SBP was greater in T2DM patients with that in those without previous history of CVD, and maintained an independent association with higher estimated risk of CVC-related events regardless of the history ofCVD, suggesting that its prognostic significance is relevant in the entire CVD continuum of patients with T2 DM.

Choosing the right therapy for a patient with asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

TL;DR: All patients with ACS are at high risk of cardiovascular events and should receive intensive medical therapy including lifestyle modification, intensive lipid-lowering, B vitamins to lower homocysteine (using methylcobalamin rather than cyanocobalamin), and appropriate antithrombotic therapy.
