Very low-dose fluvastatin-valsartan combination decreases parameters of inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus

TLDR
The approach consisting of short-term treatment with a very low-dose fluvastatin-valsartan combination acts anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative in T1DM patients and the improvement of arterial function support the assumption that this approach could have an important clinical benefit in T 1DM patients.

Prevention of Vascular Complications in Diabetes Mellitus Patients: Focus on the Arterial Wall.

TL;DR: If the pivotal role of vascular wall impairment in the pathogenesis and progression of microvascular and macrovascular complications is accepted, treatment focused directly on the arterial wall should be one of the priorities in prevention of vascular complications in patients with DM.

Treating Arterial Ageing in Patients with Diabetes: From Mechanisms to Effective Drugs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the capacity of available drugs, particularly antidiabetic drugs, to interfere with the arterial ageing process was reviewed, and the three tightly connected cornerstone characteristics of arterial aging in patients with diabetes are: phenotypic presentation as endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness.

Attenuating the Variability of Lipids Is Beneficial for the Hypertension Management to Reduce the Cardiovascular Morbidity and Mortality in Older Adults.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the beneficial of attenuating the variability of lipids to the hypertension management in older adults and found that rosuvastatin significantly attenuated the intra-visit variability in lipids and decreased the risk of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity.

Effect of Atorvastatin and Irbesartan, Alone and in Combination, on Postprandial Endothelial Dysfunction, Oxidative Stress, and Inflammation in Type 2 Diabetic Patients

TL;DR: This study confirms an independent and cumulative effect of postprandial hypertriglyceridemia and hyperglycemia on endothelial function and inflammation, suggesting oxidative stress as a common mediator of such an effect.

Advanced Glycation End Products: A Molecular Target for Vascular Complications in Diabetes

TL;DR: Evidence supports AGEs’ involvement in diabetes- and aging-associated disorders such as diabetic vascular complications, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and osteoporosis and inhibition of AGE formation could be a novel molecular target for organ protection in diabetes.

Low-dose treatment with atorvastatin leads to anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects in diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR: Lid-independent anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects of low-dose atorvastatin involving the ERK1/2/NF-kappaB-pathway are sufficient to improve endothelial function under experimental diabetic conditions.

Arginase inhibition mediates renal tissue protection in diabetic nephropathy by a nitric oxide synthase 3-dependent mechanism

TL;DR: Testing whether the protective effect of arginase inhibition is nitric oxide synthase-3 (eNOS)-dependent in diabetic nephropathy and has an eNOS-independent effect on kidney macrophage recruitment found it to be so.

Cardiovascular disease and type 1 diabetes: prevalence, prediction and management in an ageing population.

TL;DR: Important areas remain to be addressed in the existing literature around CVD in T1D, particularly exploring the risks and benefits of therapeutic approaches to CVD management in the older aged.
