TL;DR: Life expectancy and YLLs have improved more slowly since 2010 in all UK countries compared with 1990–2010, and targeted actions are needed if the rate of improvement is to recover.

TL;DR: The eastern Mediterranean region is going through a crucial health phase, and the Arab uprisings and the wars that followed, coupled with ageing and population growth, will have a major impact on the region's health and resources.

TL;DR: Comprehensive SARS-CoV-2 testing and contact-tracing data from the Indian states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh reveal stark contrasts from epidemics affecting high-income countries, with 92% of cases and 59.7% of deaths occurring among individuals <65 years old.
Abstract: Although most COVID-19 cases have occurred in low-resource countries, there is scarce information on the epidemiology of the disease in such settings. Comprehensive SARS-CoV-2 testing and contact-tracing data from the Indian states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh reveal stark contrasts from epidemics affecting high-income countries, with 92.1% of cases and 59.7% of deaths occurring among individuals

TL;DR: The CREDENCE trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of canagliflozin versus placebo at preventing clinically important kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and established kidney disease.
Abstract: Background: People with diabetes and kidney disease have a high risk of cardiovascular events and progression of kidney disease. Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors lower plasma glucose by reducing the uptake of filtered glucose in the kidney tubule, leading to increased urinary glucose excretion. They have been repeatedly shown to induce modest natriuresis and reduce HbA1c, blood pressure, weight, and albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, the effects of these agents on kidney and cardiovascular events have not been extensively studied in patients with type 2 diabetes and established kidney disease. Methods: The Canagliflozin and Renal Endpoints in Diabetes with Established Nephropathy Clinical Evaluation (CREDENCE) trial aims to compare the efficacy and safety of canagliflozin versus placebo at preventing clinically important kidney and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetes and established kidney disease. CREDENCE is a randomized, double-blind, event-driven, placebo-controlled trial set in in 34 countries with a projected duration of similar to 5.5 years and enrolling 4,401 adults with type 2 diabetes, estimated glomerular filtration rate g= 30 to l90 mL/min/1.73 m(2), and albuminuria (urinary albumin: creatinine ratio g 300 to l= 5,000 mg/g). The study has 90% power to detect a 20% reduction in the risk of the primary outcome (alpha = 0.05), the composite of end-stage kidney disease, doubling of serum creatinine, and renal or cardiovascular death. Conclusion: CREDENCE will provide definitive evidence about the effects of canagliflozin on renal (and cardiovascular) outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and established kidney disease.
