The federal government spent $321 more per person for beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Advantage plans than for those in traditional Medicare in 2019, a gap that amounted to $7 billion in additional spending on the increasingly popular private plans that year, finds a new KFF analysis.The Medicare Advantage spending includes the cost of extra benefits, such as vision, dental and hearing coverage that are funded by rebates and not covered for beneficiaries kamagra oral jelly wholesalers in traditional Medicare. The extra benefits have likely contributed to years of steady increases in Medicare Advantage enrollment, which reached 22 million in 2019 (36% of all beneficiaries) and 26 million this year (42%).At the same time, Medicare Advantage spending has risen steadily, and is projected to rise to $664 billion by 2029, up from $348 billion this year. Half of the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers projected increase is due to growth in enrollment, while the remaining half is attributable to growth in federal payments per enrollee, after accounting for inflation. The projected growth in spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee is driven in part by the expectation that federal bonus payments that plans receive based on their quality ratings will continue to rise.The higher payments for Medicare Advantage — $11,844 per person in Medicare Advantage vs. $11,523 in traditional Medicare in 2019 — have led to higher federal spending than would have occurred under traditional Medicare and higher Medicare Part B premiums paid by all beneficiaries, including those in traditional Medicare.The higher spending is attributed to features of the Medicare Advantage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers payment system, including how benchmarks for plan payments are set, as well as the risk adjustment process, that is intended to compensate plans more for higher cost enrollees.

That has attracted the attention of the Biden Administration, which in its 2022 budget expressed support for reforming payments to private plans as part of efforts to extend the solvency of the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund and improve affordability for beneficiaries. Additionally, Medicare Advantage plans have come under scrutiny over inaccurate coding practices that contribute to higher risk scores for their enrollees, and higher payments from Medicare.The new KFF analysis finds that if spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee were 2 percent less each year than the amount projected by the Medicare actuaries – a scenario similar to a recommendation made by the federal Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC) — then total Medicare spending would be $82 billion lower than projected between 2021 and 2029.Under a different scenario, if the growth in per person spending on beneficiaries in Medicare Advantage were held to the same rate of growth in spending on beneficiaries in traditional Medicare, then total Medicare program spending would be $183 billion lower than projected between 2021 and 2029, the analysis finds.Reducing Medicare Advantage payments from their projected amounts could have uncertain effects on the availability of plans kamagra oral jelly wholesalers that offer extra benefits for Medicare Advantage enrollees, or plan profits, unless plans are able to lower administrative costs and operate more efficiently.The full analysis, Higher and Faster Growing Spending Per Medicare Advantage Enrollee Adds to Medicare’s Solvency and Affordability Challenges, as well as other data and analyses about Medicare Advantage, can be found at kff.org.The number of people enrolled in Medicare has increased steadily in recent years, and along with it, Medicare spending. In particular, enrollment in Medicare Advantage, the private plan alternative to traditional Medicare, has more than doubled over the last decade. Notably, Medicare spending is kamagra oral jelly wholesalers higher and growing faster per person for beneficiaries in Medicare Advantage than in traditional Medicare. As enrollment in Medicare Advantage continues to grow, these trends have important implications for total Medicare spending, and costs incurred by beneficiaries.

In its 2022 budget, the Biden Administration kamagra oral jelly wholesalers expressed support for reforming payments to private plans as part of efforts to extend the solvency of the Medicare Hospital Insurance (HI) Trust Fund and improve affordability for beneficiaries.This analysis examines Medicare spending per person for beneficiaries in Medicare Advantage, relative to traditional Medicare. We build on prior work published by the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC) and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Office of the Actuary (OACT) to provide estimates of the amount Medicare would have spent for Medicare Advantage enrollees had they been covered under traditional Medicare in 2019 (the most recent year for which data are available). We use publicly available data from CMS that includes spending for people who were enrolled in both Part A and Part B of traditional Medicare, by category of service, as well as information on average risk scores and enrollment by county. This allows us to calculate per-person spending kamagra oral jelly wholesalers for beneficiaries in traditional Medicare on a basis comparable to federal payments per enrollee in Medicare Advantage. We also examine the extent to which the projected growth in Medicare Advantage spending is attributable to the growth in enrollment and the increase in spending per person.

We then illustrate potential savings to the Medicare program between 2021 and 2029 under two alternative scenarios where Medicare Advantage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers spending per person is lower or grows slower than under current projections. (See Methodology for more details on the data and analytic approach.)Our analysis finds:Medicare spending for Medicare Advantage enrollees was $321 higher per person in 2019 than if enrollees had instead been covered by traditional Medicare. The Medicare Advantage spending amount includes the cost of extra benefits, funded by rebates, not available to traditional Medicare beneficiaries.The higher Medicare spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee, compared to spending kamagra oral jelly wholesalers for similar beneficiaries under traditional Medicare, contributed an estimated $7 billion in additional spending in 2019.Growth in Medicare Advantage enrollment explains half of the projected increase in total Medicare Advantage spending between 2021 and 2029 and half is attributable to growth in Medicare payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee, after accounting for inflation.If spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee was 2 percent less each year than projected by the Medicare actuaries, similar to the projected impact of a recommendation made by MedPAC, total Medicare spending would be $82 billion lower between 2021 and 2029. If instead Medicare payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee grew at the same rate as is projected for spending per person in traditional Medicare (4.4% vs 5.3%), total Medicare spending would be $183 billion lower between 2021 and 2029.Background on Payments to Medicare Advantage PlansMedicare beneficiaries have the option to receive their Medicare benefits through either the traditional Medicare program or by enrolling in a private health plan, such as an HMO or PPO, that contracts with Medicare, called Medicare Advantage. Medicare pays Medicare Advantage plans kamagra oral jelly wholesalers a set amount for each enrollee.

The payment is determined through an annual process in which plans submit “bids” for how much they estimate it will cost to provide benefits covered under Medicare Parts A and B for an average beneficiary. The bids submitted by each plan are compared kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to a benchmark, which is an amount based on a set percentage of the projected average spending for beneficiaries in traditional Medicare in the same county. The benchmarks range from 95 percent in high spending counties to 115 percent in low spending counties. The benchmarks are kamagra oral jelly wholesalers subject to caps, meaning they cannot exceed the benchmarks that were in place before the Affordable Care Act. In addition, the benchmarks are increased by 5 percent for plans that receive at least 4 out of 5 stars under the quality bonus program, and 10 percent in certain “double bonus” counties.Plans that bid below the benchmark receive a portion of the difference between the bid and the benchmark as a “rebate” (50 percent for plans with 3 or fewer stars, 65 percent for plans with 3.5 or 4 stars, and 70 percent for plans with 5 stars).

Rebates must be used to reduce cost sharing, subsidize the standard Part B and/or Part D premium, or pay for supplemental benefits (such as vision, dental, and hearing). A portion of the rebate may also be kamagra oral jelly wholesalers used for administrative costs or retained as profit. Plans that bid above their benchmark receive the benchmark amount, and enrollees pay an additional premium equal to the difference between the bid and benchmark. The payments to plans are kamagra oral jelly wholesalers risk adjusted, based on the health status and other characteristics of enrollees, including age, sex, and Medicaid enrollment. Medicare payments are higher for plans with higher average risk scores because their enrollees are expected to incur higher costs.While traditional Medicare spending is used to establish benchmarks, actual payments to Medicare Advantage plans can be higher or lower than spending for comparable beneficiaries in traditional Medicare.

Changes in the Affordable kamagra oral jelly wholesalers Care Act initially reduced Medicare Advantage benchmarks. However, since 2017, benchmarks have risen on average, which increases the maximum possible payment a plan can receive. When benchmarks increase, plans that bid below the benchmark may be able kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to retain the same amount of rebate dollars, and thus offer the same level of extra benefits, while increasing their bid for Part A and B services. Alternatively, these plans could bid the same (or even slightly less) and receive higher rebate payments as the difference between the benchmark and bid widens because the benchmark is higher. Either response kamagra oral jelly wholesalers increases the payment Medicare Advantage plans receive as benchmarks increase.

One reason for the recent increase in benchmarks is that more plans are in bonus status, and thus have 5 percent (or 10 percent in double bonus counties) added to their benchmark. In 2021, 81 percent of kamagra oral jelly wholesalers Medicare Advantage enrollees are in plans that receive a bonus payment. Similarly, rebates increase as star ratings increase, because plans with higher star ratings retain a larger percent of the difference between the benchmark and bid as a rebate.In addition, risk adjustment can lead to higher payments for Medicare Advantage enrollees than would have been spent in traditional Medicare. This is because risk scores are largely based on diagnoses, and more diagnoses generally increase a beneficiary’s risk score, providing an incentive for diagnoses to be coded more comprehensively for Medicare Advantage enrollees than occurs for traditional Medicare beneficiaries. MedPAC estimates that this more comprehensive coding of diagnoses in Medicare Advantage increased risk scores 9.1 percent relative to traditional Medicare in 2019 kamagra oral jelly wholesalers.

There is also some concern that Medicare Advantage plans submit inaccurate diagnoses that increase risk scores and result in overpayments. The Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector kamagra oral jelly wholesalers General is currently conducting a targeted review of documentation submitted by Medicare Advantage organizations to determine whether diagnoses and associated risk scores comply with federal regulations. And in July, the Department of Justice announced that they were intervening in a False Claims Act lawsuit alleging that Kaiser Permanente had submitted inaccurate diagnoses codes for Medicare Advantage enrollees.FindingsSpending per personMedicare spent $321 more per person for Medicare Advantage enrollees than it would have spent for the same beneficiaries had they been covered under traditional Medicare in 2019. After adjusting for differences in health status and the geographic kamagra oral jelly wholesalers distribution of Medicare Advantage enrollees and traditional Medicare beneficiaries, spending per person for services covered under Parts A and B totaled $11,523 in 2019 for beneficiaries in traditional Medicare. This estimate for traditional Medicare reflects the categories of spending that are covered by Medicare payments to Medicare Advantage plans, and so excludes spending on hospice and payments for graduate medical education but includes administrative expenses.

In addition, it adjusts for the impact of more intense coding of diagnoses kamagra oral jelly wholesalers in Medicare Advantage relative to traditional Medicare, as estimated by MedPAC, which makes Medicare Advantage enrollees look like they are in worse health. (See Methodology for additional discussion.)In the same year, federal payments to Medicare Advantage plans were $11,844 per enrollee, or $321 more per person than Medicare would have spent if these beneficiaries had instead been covered by traditional Medicare. In other words, Medicare Advantage payments were kamagra oral jelly wholesalers about 103 percent of spending for comparable traditional Medicare beneficiaries. The higher spending occurred despite changes in law made by the Affordable Care Act that reduced payments to plans over time (which MedPAC estimated at 114 percent of traditional Medicare beneficiary spending in 2009).As described above, Medicare payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee include two components. Bid-based expenditures, which reflect the plan’s expected costs for providing services covered under Medicare Parts A and B (adjusted for health risk), and rebates, which pay for the cost of benefits not available to traditional Medicare beneficiaries, including reduced cost sharing, subsidized Part B and Part D premiums, and coverage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers of additional benefits, such as vision, dental and hearing.

In 2019, the bid-based portion of the Medicare Advantage payment was $10,848 and the rebate portion was $996.Higher Medicare payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee increased total Medicare spending by an estimated $7 billion in 2019. Across the approximately 22 million people enrolled in Medicare Advantage in 2019, higher spending of $321 per person led to about $7 billion in additional spending in that year. That is equal to about 3 percent of all Medicare Advantage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers spending in 2019.Projected growth in Medicare Advantage spendingGrowth in Medicare Advantage enrollment explains half of the projected growth in Medicare Advantage spending between 2021 and 2029, after adjusting for inflation. Between 2021 and 2029, federal spending on payments to Medicare Advantage plans is projected to increase by $316 billion, from $348 billion to $664 billion. After accounting for inflation (which represents $108 billion of this increase), the remaining $208 billion is explained by growth in payments per person ($105 billion, or 50 kamagra oral jelly wholesalers percent) and growth in enrollment ($104 billion, or 50 percent) (Figure 1).Figure 1.

Growth in Medicare Advantage Enrollment Explains Half of the Projected Increase in Medicare Advantage Spending through 2029Notably, the rebate portion of Medicare Advantage payments, which must be used to cover the cost of additional benefits not available to traditional Medicare beneficiaries, is projected to grow between 2021 and 2029. Rebates account for about kamagra oral jelly wholesalers 10 percent of Medicare Advantage payments in 2021 ($35 billion of $348 billion) and are projected to rise to 12 percent ($80 billion of $664 billion) in 2029.Medicare spending is projected to grow faster for Medicare Advantage enrollees than traditional Medicare beneficiaries. Spending per person in Medicare Advantage is projected to grow 5.3 percent a year on average between 2021 and 2029, an amount which is similar across plan types (based on KFF analysis of data from the 2020 Medicare Trustees Report). The projected growth in Medicare Advantage spending per person is somewhat higher than the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers 4.4 percent average annual growth projected for beneficiaries in traditional Medicare (see Methodology for details on data and methods).According to the Medicare actuaries, the higher projected growth in Medicare payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee are in part explained by faster projected growth in the rebate portion of the payment. Rebates are projected to grow nearly 8 percent a year on average, which the actuaries attribute to “assumed increases in quality bonus payments and increases in benchmarks.”It is also possible that the faster expected increase in spending per person in Medicare Advantage compared to traditional Medicare through 2029 is due in part to an assumption that sicker and higher cost beneficiaries, such as those dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid, will enroll in Medicare Advantage at a higher rate than in traditional Medicare.

For example, the number of Medicare Advantage enrollees in special kamagra oral jelly wholesalers needs plans (SNPs), which included just over half of all dually eligible beneficiaries in Medicare Advantage in 2019, is expected to increase slightly by 2029. However, the change is relatively small, and even if it represents only half of the total increase in Medicare Advantage enrollment by dually eligible beneficiaries, it suggests the projected increase in spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee is being driven by other factors, such as Medicare Advantage payment methodology. Additionally, starting in 2021, all Medicare beneficiaries with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are eligible to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan. Though beneficiaries with ESRD have substantially higher costs than the average Medicare beneficiary, they represent less than 1 percent of all Medicare beneficiaries, and so increased enrollment by kamagra oral jelly wholesalers beneficiaries with ESRD is likely to explain a relatively small portion of the growth in per-person spending in Medicare Advantage.Alternative projections for Medicare Advantage spendingIf Medicare Advantage spending per person was 2 percent less a year than projected, similar to the simulated effect of recommended payment changes from MedPAC, total Medicare spending would be $82 billion lower through 2029. MedPAC has proposed changes to how Medicare Advantage benchmarks are calculated and estimate these changes would result in a 2 percent reduction in Medicare Advantage payments in a single year.

Applying this payment reduction to the projected Medicare Advantage payments per enrollee in each year between 2022 and 2029, total Medicare Advantage spending would be $82 kamagra oral jelly wholesalers billion lower through 2029 (Figure 2). The decrease is approximately 1 percent of total Medicare benefit spending over these years (and 2 percent of Medicare Advantage spending).Even with the reduction in aggregate spending under this scenario where Medicare Advantage payments are reduced by 2 percent per year, projected Medicare spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee would still be higher and grow faster than projected spending per person in traditional Medicare. MedPAC expects implementing changes to the benchmark policy that result in a 2 percent reduction in payments in a given year would have only a modest effect kamagra oral jelly wholesalers on access to plans with lower cost sharing and reduced Part B and D premiums. For example, in their simulations, the vast majority (over 95 percent) of Medicare beneficiaries would continue to have access to Medicare Advantage plans that offer reduced cost sharing and Part B and/or D premium reductions. The number of plan sponsors and plan choices would vary across geographic areas, as they do under kamagra oral jelly wholesalers current policy, but would be somewhat reduced.

In the quartile of counties with the lowest traditional Medicare spending per person, MedPAC estimates an average of 5 plan sponsors would offer 12 different plans (compared to 6 plans sponsors who offered 22 different plans in 2020). In the quartile of counties with the highest spending per person in traditional Medicare, an average of 8 plan sponsors would offer 22 different Medicare Advantage plans (compared to the same number of sponsors who offered 27 plans in 2020).Under an alternative, illustrative scenario, where Medicare Advantage spending per person grew at the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers same rate as is projected for traditional Medicare, spending would be $183 billion lower between 2021 and 2029. For this scenario, we calculated the difference in projected Medicare spending if Medicare payments per person to Medicare Advantage plans grew at the same rate as spending per person in traditional Medicare (4.4 percent) between 2021 and 2029, rather than the higher 5.3 percent growth rate projection. While this approach is not directly pegged to a specific kamagra oral jelly wholesalers policy proposal, it illustrates the potential for savings, of, for example, a cap on the growth in total Medicare Advantage payments per enrollee. To adjust to such a cap, plans could find additional efficiencies in the coverage of Part A and B services, reduce supplemental benefits, restrict the future growth in supplemental benefits, lower administrative costs, reduce profits, or some combination of each.

Limiting the growth in Medicare payment per Medicare Advantage enrollee directly or indirectly could also be achieved through other payment reforms.Under the scenario where per-person spending growth in Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare is equivalent, total Medicare Advantage spending over 2021 to 2029 would be $183 billion lower (Figure 2). For context, the savings under this scenario represents 4 percent of projected Medicare Advantage spending over this time period (and 2 percent of total Medicare kamagra oral jelly wholesalers benefit spending). That compares to an expected reduction in Medicare Advantage spending of 8.9 percent between 2010 and 2019 due to changes in the Affordable Care Act (based on CBO’s estimate of the health care law and its March 2009 baseline). While spending per person would grow at the same rate in both Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare under this scenario, payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee would be higher than spending per beneficiary in traditional Medicare kamagra oral jelly wholesalers because of higher projected spending per person in Medicare Advantage in 2021. Comparing the two alternative scenarios, the reduction in Medicare Advantage spending is similar in the initial years of the time period.

However, the Medicare savings accrue more rapidly under the scenario where growth in kamagra oral jelly wholesalers payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee is equal to the rate of growth in spending per person in traditional Medicare. This is because savings from lower growth compound over time. (Toggle between kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the two scenarios to see the year-by-year savings under each scenario in Figure 3).These estimates assume no changes to projected enrollment, which may occur if supplemental benefits, cost sharing, or other features of Medicare Advantage plans change in response to lower payments from the federal government. However, while it is not possible to know exactly how plans will respond to lower payments, previous analyses of past payment changes demonstrate that plans have found savings elsewhere in order to maintain rebate dollars to fund supplemental benefits that may appeal to enrollees. For example, MedPAC examined the response of Medicare Advantage plans that lost bonus status between 2018 and 2019 and found that these plans reduced their profits and administrative costs, and had lower growth in their projected Part A and B costs compared to other kamagra oral jelly wholesalers plans.

This allowed the plans to continue to provide similar levels of supplemental benefits. Further, despite predictions by CBO, Medicare actuaries, and others that enrollment in Medicare Advantage would fall following the reductions in payment to Medicare Advantage plans enacted as part of the Affordable kamagra oral jelly wholesalers Care Act, enrollment never declined and has instead risen rapidly. Plans offer more generous supplemental benefits in 2021 than at any other point in the program’s history and Medicare Advantage markets are robust, with the average Medicare beneficiary having more than 30 Medicare Advantage plans to choose from in 2021. ConclusionHistorically, one goal of the Medicare Advantage program was to leverage the efficiencies of managed care to reduce Medicare spending. However, the program has never generated kamagra oral jelly wholesalers savings relative to traditional Medicare.

In fact, the opposite is true. As a result, Medicare Advantage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers plans have been able to offer an increasingly robust set of extra benefits not available to beneficiaries in traditional Medicare. The annual cost of the rebate dollars used to pay for the extra benefits – $1,680 per Medicare Advantage enrollee for non-employer, non-SNP plans in 2021 – more than offset any savings that Medicare Advantage plans generate by bidding below the benchmark set by CMS for covering Part A and B services. The extra benefits improve coverage for beneficiaries who choose Medicare Advantage kamagra oral jelly wholesalers plans and have likely contributed to the substantial increase in Medicare Advantage enrollment. But the higher payments have also led to higher Medicare spending than would have occurred under traditional Medicare and higher Medicare Part B premiums paid by all beneficiaries, including those in traditional Medicare.Our analysis finds that Medicare Advantage payments per enrollee in 2019 were approximately 103 percent of spending per person for comparable beneficiaries covered by traditional Medicare, consistent with estimates based on data submitted by private plans as part of the bidding process and concurrent projections by CMS of future spending in traditional Medicare.

MedPAC’s most recent analysis of the relationship between Medicare Advantage payments and spending in traditional Medicare suggests that the difference has kamagra oral jelly wholesalers widened, with 2021 payments per Medicare Advantage enrollee estimated to total 104 percent of spending in traditional Medicare. That trend is in part attributed to the rise in the rebate component of Medicare Advantage payments, which increased 14 percent between 2020 and 2021. While part of the increase in rebates stems from a decrease in how much private plans bid to provide coverage of Part A and B services, other features kamagra oral jelly wholesalers of the Medicare Advantage payment methodology, including the quality bonus program payments and benchmark policy contribute to both the recent and projected growth in rebates, and in turn, total Medicare Advantage spending. For example, under the quality bonus program, payments from the federal government to Medicare Advantage plans will total $11.6 billion in 2021, at least a portion of which was paid as the rebate.MedPAC recently recommended changes to how plan payments are calculated, observing that because most plans currently bid well below the cost of providing Part A and B services in traditional Medicare, there is an opportunity for the Medicare program to share in these efficiencies. Their simulations indicate that a 2 percent reduction in payments would not significantly affect access to kamagra oral jelly wholesalers private plans or supplemental benefits.

A reduction in Medicare Advantage payments consistent with the simulated effect of MedPAC’s recommendations, would result in Medicare program payments per enrollee that would remain higher and still grow faster than spending under traditional Medicare. Alternatively, bringing Medicare Advantage spending growth in line with projected growth in traditional Medicare would achieve more than twice as much savings. Under that scenario, the absolute level of payments per enrollee to private plans would still be kamagra oral jelly wholesalers higher than spending per person for beneficiaries in traditional Medicare. Reduced federal payments could mean Medicare Advantage enrollees see fewer extra benefits and higher cost sharing and premiums compared to today (but still lower costs than compared to traditional Medicare without supplemental coverage), but plans could also reduce profits or administrative costs to make up the difference. Further, savings of this magnitude would be less than half of those included in the Affordable Care Act, which were followed by a period of robust Medicare Advantage growth.Over the next kamagra oral jelly wholesalers decade, Medicare Advantage enrollment is expected to continue to grow.

As more Medicare beneficiaries enroll in private plans, differences in Medicare payments across Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare will lead to even higher Medicare spending, and more generous benefits for beneficiaries in Medicare Advantage than traditional Medicare. That higher spending increases Part B premiums paid by all Medicare beneficiaries, including those who are not in a Medicare Advantage plan, and contribute kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to the financing challenges facing the Medicare HI Trust Fund. Further, these projections raise questions of equity between Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare because the faster growth in spending per Medicare Advantage enrollee, compared to traditional Medicare beneficiaries, is in part due to rising rebates to private plans, which cover the cost of benefits not available to traditional Medicare beneficiaries. Although taking steps to address the fiscal challenges facing Medicare are not front and center in current Medicare policy discussions, policymakers may soon be on the lookout for options to achieve Medicare savings to fund other spending priorities or extend the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers solvency of the Medicare HI Trust Fund. This analysis suggests that reducing the difference in payments between Medicare Advantage and traditional Medicare would generate savings, with the potential for reductions in extra benefits for Medicare Advantage enrollees.This work was supported in part by Arnold Ventures.

€‚For the podcast associated with this article, please visit https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/pages/Podcasts.This Focus Issue on heart failure (HF) provides novel clinically relevant information on sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors which, initially proposed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), have been found to improve the outcome of HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) when administered on the top of drugs known to improve the outcome of HF and are recommended in liquid viagra kamagra current European Guidelines.1,2Acording to modelling generic kamagra cost estimates, when compared with no neurohormonal blockade, the use of a broad-based combination of disease-modifying drugs at target doses in patients with HF may reduce the risk of death by as much as 75%. It is surprising that in spite of this powerful therapeutic armamentarium, <1% of patients with chronic HF are currently receiving recommended drugs at doses that have been shown to prolong life.3 The issue opens with a Current Opinion article entitled ‘Totality of evidence in trials of sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in the patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Implications for clinical practice’ by Milton Packer from the Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas in liquid viagra kamagra Texas, USA and colleagues.

The authors provide a perspective on the totality of evidence with SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with HFrEF.4 This paper is the first to issue a call for a major change in clinical practice based on the concordant results of DAPA-HF and EMPEROR-Reduced trials. The analyses and interpretations that are presented in this manuscript will undoubtedly generate considerable discussion and debate for a long time.Concern about hypotension often leads to withholding of beneficial therapy in patients with HFrEF. In a liquid viagra kamagra clinical research manuscript entitled ‘Effect of dapagliflozin according to baseline systolic blood pressure in the Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse Outcomes in Heart Failure trial (DAPA-HF)’ John McMurray from the Western Infirmary in Glasgow, UK and colleagues on behalf of the DAPA-HF Investigators and Committees evaluated the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin according to baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP) in DAPA-HF trial.5 Key inclusion criteria were.

New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II–IV, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%, elevated N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level, and SBP ≥95 mmHg. The primary outcome was a composite of worsening HF or cardiovascular liquid viagra kamagra death. The efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin was examined using SBP as both a categorical and a continuous variable.

The placebo-corrected reduction in SBP from baseline to 2 weeks with dapagliflozin was –2.54 mmHg. The benefit and safety of dapagliflozin were consistent across the range of SBP liquid viagra kamagra. Study drug discontinuation did not differ between dapagliflozin and placebo across the SBP categories examined.The authors conclude that dapagliflozin had a small effect on SBP in patients with HFrEF and was superior to placebo in improving outcomes, and well tolerated, across the range of SBP included in DAPA-HF.

The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francesco Cosentino from the University Hospital Solna in Stockholm, Sweden who comments that altogether, the results of the current post-hoc analysis demonstrating efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin regardless of SBP values might significantly contribute to foster the implementation of dapagliflozin use in HF clinical practice by dissipating any potential safety concern linked with its hypotensive effects.6In liquid viagra kamagra a clinical research article entitled ‘A randomized controlled trial of dapagliflozin on left ventricular hypertrophy in people with type two diabetes. The DAPA-LVH trial’, Chim Lang from the University of Dundee in the UK and colleagues tested the hypothesis that dapagliflozin may regress left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in people with T2D.7 The authors randomly assigned 66 patients with T2D, LVH, and controlled blood pressure to receive dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily or placebo for 12 months. The primary endpoint was change in absolute left ventricular mass (LVM), assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

In the intention-to-treat analysis, dapagliflozin significantly reduced LVM compared with placebo, with an absolute mean change of liquid viagra kamagra –2.82 g. Additional sensitivity analysis adjusting for baseline LVM, baseline blood pressure, weight, and SBP change showed the LVM change to remain statistically significant. Dapagliflozin significantly reduced pre-specified secondary endpoints including ambulatory 24-h SBP, nocturnal SBP, body weight, visceral adipose tissue, subcutaneous liquid viagra kamagra adipose tissue, insulin resistance, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.

The regression of LVM suggests that dapagliflozin can initiate reverse remodelling and changes in left ventricular structure that liquid viagra kamagra may partly contribute to cardioprotective effects of dapagliflozin. This manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francesco Paneni from the University of Zurich in Switzerland and colleagues.8 They note that the above-mentioned effects of SGLT2 inhibitors set the ground for a possible beneficial effect of these drugs in patients with HFpEF, where microvascular dysfunction, cardiomyocyte inflammation, and cardiometabolic alterations take centre stage.While several landmark studies have long established that implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy improves survival for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death ,9 risk stratification parameters and methods for this purpose are clinically underused.

In a clinical research article entitled ‘Clinical effectiveness of primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Results of the EU-CERT-ICD controlled multicentre cohort study’ Markus Zabel from the Universitätsmedizin Göttingen in Germany and colleagues from the EU-CERT-ICD Study Investigators assessed the current clinical effectiveness of primary prevention by ICD therapy in a liquid viagra kamagra prospective investigator-initiated, controlled cohort study, conducted in 44 centres and 15 European countries. The study sought to assess current clinical effectiveness of primary prophylactic ICD implantation.10 The authors recruited 2327 patients with ischaemic or dilated cardiomyopathy and guideline indications for prophylactic ICD implantation.

The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality liquid viagra kamagra. Baseline and follow-up data from 2247 patients were analysable. 1516 patients with first ICD implantation (ICD group) and 731 patients without ICD serving as controls.

Multivariable models and propensity scoring for adjustment were used to compare the two groups for mortality liquid viagra kamagra. Adjusted mortality associated with ICD vs. Control was significantly lower (hazard ratio liquid viagra kamagra 0.731).

Subgroup analyses indicated no ICD benefit in diabetics or in those aged ≥75 years. Figure 2Secondary efficacy endpoints comparing cardiosphere-derived cells and placebo at 6 months. Change in (A) left ventricular end-diastolic liquid viagra kamagra volume.

Intracoronary ALLogeneic heart STem cells to Achieve myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR). A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial. See pages 3451--3458).The authors conclude that in liquid viagra kamagra contemporary ischaemic/dilated cardiomyopathy patients (LVEF ≤35%, narrow QRS), primary prophylactic ICD treatment was associated with a substantial reduction in mortality, although this improvement was not consistent across the whole population.

The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by N.A. Mark Estes liquid viagra kamagra III from the Heart and Vascular Institute UPMC in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.11 The authors note that clinicians should be mindful of available risk stratification models and subgroup analyses from the EU-CERT-ICD and other studies. It follows that the process of shared decision-making should include careful consideration of the patient’s wishes and values, with an individualized assessment of potential benefit and risks of primary prevention of sudden death by ICD implantation.Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) are cardiac progenitor cells which exhibit disease-modifying bioactivity in various models of cardiomyopathy and in previous clinical studies of acute myocardial infarction (MI), dilated cardiomyopathy, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy.12,13 In a clinical research article entitled ‘Intracoronary ALLogeneic heart STem cells to Achieve myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR).

A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial’, Raj Makkar from the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute in Los Angeles, California, USA and colleagues assessed the safety and efficacy of intracoronary administration of allogeneic CDCs in the multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, intracoronary ALLogeneic Heart STem Cells to Achieve Myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR) trial.14 The authors enrolled patients 4 weeks to 12 months after MI, with LVEF ≤45% and left ventricular LV scar size ≥15% of LVM by MRI. A pre-specified interim analysis was liquid viagra kamagra performed when 6-month MRI data were available. The trial was subsequently stopped due to the low probability of detecting a significant treatment effect of CDCs based on the primary endpoint.

Patients were randomly allocated in a 2:1 ratio to receive CDCs or placebo liquid viagra kamagra in the infarct-related artery by the stop–flow technique. The primary safety endpoint was the occurrence, during 1-month post-intracoronary infusion, of acute myocarditis attributable to allogeneic CDCs, ventricular tachycardia- or ventricular fibrillation-related death, sudden unexpected death, or a major adverse cardiac event (death or hospitalization for HF or non-fatal MI). The primary efficacy endpoint was the relative percentage change in infarct size at 12 months post-infusion as assessed by contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI.

Makkar and colleagues randomly allocated 90 patients to liquid viagra kamagra the CDC group and 44 to the placebo group. The mean baseline LVEF was 40% and the mean scar size was 22% of the LVM. No primary safety endpoint events occurred liquid viagra kamagra.

There was no difference in the percentage change from baseline in scar size between CDC and placebo groups at 6 months. Compared with placebo, there were significant reductions in LV end-diastolic volume, LV end-systolic volume, and NT-proBNP at 6 months in CDC-treated patients.The authors conclude that intracoronary infusion of allogeneic CDCs in patients with post-MI left ventricular dysfunction was safe but did not reduce scar size relative to placebo at 6 months. The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francisco Fernandez-Aviles from the liquid viagra kamagra Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón in Madrid, Spain and colleagues.15 The authors feel that various points need to be better addressed before proceeding again to clinical trials, if we want to move the field of cardiovascular regenerative and reparative medicine forward, for the sake of the cardiovascular health of millions of patients.Treatment of pathological cardiac remodelling and subsequent HF represents an unmet clinical need.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as crucial molecular orchestrators of disease processes including that of heart diseases.16,17 In a Basic Science article entitled ‘Targeting muscle-enriched long non-coding RNA H19 reverses pathological cardiac hypertrophy’, Thomas Thum from the Hannover Medical School in Germany, and colleagues report on the powerful therapeutic potential of the conserved lncRNA H19 in the treatment of pathological cardiac hypertrophy.18 Pressure overload-induced left ventricular cardiac remodelling revealed an up-regulation of H19 in the early phase, but a strong sustained repression upon reaching the decompensated phase of HF. The translational potential of H19 was highlighted by its repression in a large animal (pig) model of LVH, in diseased human heart samples, in human stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, and in human engineered heart tissue in response to afterload enhancement. Pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy liquid viagra kamagra in H19 knockout mice was aggravated compared with wild-type mice.

In contrast, vector-based, cardiomyocyte-directed gene therapy using murine but also human H19 strongly attenuated HF even when cardiac hypertrophy was already established. Mechanistically, using liquid viagra kamagra microarray, gene set enrichment analyses, and chromatin immunoprecipitation-DNA sequencing, the authors identified a link between H19 and prohypertrophic nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) signalling. H19 physically interacts with the polycomb repressive complex 2 to suppress H3K27 tri-methylation of the antihypertrophic Tescalcin locus which in turn leads to reduced NFAT expression and activity.Thum and colleagues conclude that H19 is highly conserved and down-regulated in failing hearts from mice, pigs, and humans.

H19 gene therapy prevents and reverses experimental pressure overload-induced HF. H19 acts as an antihypertrophic lncRNA and represents a promising therapeutic target to combat pathological cardiac remodelling liquid viagra kamagra. The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Gianluigi Condorelli from the Humanitas University in Rozzano, Italy and colleagues.

The authors note that dysregulation of epigenetic mechanisms leading to aberrant loss of cardiomyocyte homeostasis is a critical point to consider in understanding the liquid viagra kamagra onset of cardiovascular pathologies. Thus exploiting lncRNAs as therapeutic agents in myocardial disease could pave the way for efficaciously combatting one of the greatest healthcare burdens worldwide.19With the advent of omics, an innovative inductive method has provided researchers with possible ways new to monitor health and disease. This approach incorporates data from studies of the genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome to focus on the assessment of a varied range of biomolecules.20 In a clinical review article entitled ‘Omics phenotyping in heart failure.

The next frontier’ Antoni Bayes-Genis from the Cardiology Service, Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol in Badalona, Spain and colleagues provide a state-of-the-art review aiming to provide an up-to-date look at breakthrough omic technologies liquid viagra kamagra that are helping to unravel HF disease mechanisms and heterogeneity.21 Genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics in HF are reviewed in depth. In addition, there is a thorough, expert discussion regarding the value of omics in identifying novel disease pathways, advancing understanding of disease mechanisms, differentiating HF phenotypes, yielding biomarkers for diagnosis or prognosis, or identifying new therapeutic targets in HF. The combination of multiple omics technologies may create a more comprehensive picture of the factors and pathophysiology involved in HF liquid viagra kamagra than achieved by either one alone, and provides a rich resource for predictive phenotype modelling.

However, the successful translation of omics tools as solutions to clinical HF requires that the observations are robust and reproducible, and can be validated across multiple independent populations to ensure confidence in clinical decision-making.This issue is also complemented by a Discussion Forum contribution.

To cover the increasing workload, the hospital required additional medical personnel to provide care for the numerous erectile dysfunction treatment patients that were being seen. Prior to examining erectile dysfunction treatment-positive patients, she donned appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)—a gown, gloves, N95 mask, and face shield liquid viagra kamagra. As part of her physical exam, she was obliged to auscultate her patients with a stethoscope, listening for cardiopulmonary abnormalities that can be comorbid with severe erectile dysfunction treatment .

Thus, she was required to unzip her gown and keep her stethoscope either in her ears or around her neck. She used a standard-length Littman liquid viagra kamagra Cardiology™ stethoscope, requiring her to be in close proximity to the patient (i.e. Lean over to the patient’s level).One day after her rounds, she developed a sore throat.

She subsequently was tested positive for liquid viagra kamagra erectile dysfunction treatment via polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The resident cardiologist remembered one patient that she had examined where she suspected the transmission occurred. She recalls examining a patient who was erectile dysfunction treatment positive.

Prior to the patient’s intubation she applied her own stethoscope directly to the liquid viagra kamagra patient’s chest to perform auscultation. The resident was perspiring and beginning to feel exhausted from her prior rounding and was breathing heavily as she unzipped her gown to place the stethoscope back within. The resident believes that erectile dysfunction treatment viral particles which were transmitted to the stethoscope became aerosolized and inhaled as she brought the stethoscope close to her mouth while tucking it back into her gown liquid viagra kamagra.

The resident recovered, re-tested negative for erectile dysfunction treatment, and has now returned to her normal duties.The erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra has called into question the triple-faceted role of the stethoscope. A diagnostic tool, symbol of patient–provider connection, and possible vector for infectious disease (Figure 1). A recent article in the American Journal of Medicine discusses developments in each arm of this triple role with reference to erectile dysfunction treatment, arguing that developments in stethoscope diagnostic technology, a need to bolster clinical skills, and developments in stethoscope hygiene methods will perpetuate both its relevance and safety liquid viagra kamagra.

This argument was made in light of those who believe the stethoscope will become obsolete with the development of more advanced technologies, as well as its potential to transmit disease.1 It is clear that a contaminated stethoscope might pose a danger to patients and providers, and can be a potential vector for the transmission of erectile dysfunction treatment, as illustrated in the case above. Thus, providers should seek to educate themselves on stethoscope contamination, assess the liquid viagra kamagra current methods of hygiene, and innovate accordingly rather than cast the stethoscope aside. Figure 1The three-faceted role of the stethoscope.

The stethoscope lies at the intersection of three roles in medicine. Diagnostic tool liquid viagra kamagra. Connection between provider and patients.

And a potential vector for infectious disease. As increased control vigilance has liquid viagra kamagra placed the stethoscope in a position of contention. Each facet of the stethoscope must be weighed in consideration of medicines’s cherished symbol.Figure 1The three-faceted role of the stethoscope.

The stethoscope lies at the intersection of liquid viagra kamagra three roles in medicine. Diagnostic tool. Connection between provider and patients.

And a potential vector for liquid viagra kamagra infectious disease. As increased control vigilance has placed the stethoscope in a position of contention. Each facet of the stethoscope must be weighed in consideration of medicines’s cherished symbol.Studies have demonstrated that stethoscopes can harbour similar levels and types of microbes to those on one’s hand.2 Thus, it is no surprise that the stethoscope has been christened as the physician’s liquid viagra kamagra ‘third hand’, with reference both to its potential for pathogen transmission and its integral role in patient–provider connection.

Despite this, no clear guidelines exist for performing stethoscope hygiene. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) classifies the stethoscope as a ‘non-critical’ medical device (i.e. Only in contact with intact skin, not with liquid viagra kamagra bodily fluids), and recommends cleaning between as often as after contact with each patient to once weekly using an alcohol or bleach-based disinfectant.3 It has been demonstrated that kamagraes, including erectile dysfunction treatment,4 are capable of surviving on skin and other surfaces for an extended period of time.5 Thus, current guidelines may not adequately reflect the risk that stethoscope contamination poses.erectile dysfunction treatment has fostered an era of increased control vigilance, and thus the benefits of the stethoscope must be rationally weighed against the risks.

In the vignette posed here, the cardiology resident felt the need to use her stethoscope to assess the erectile dysfunction treatment patients on her round. Her likely rationale was the utility it provides in assessing the variety of liquid viagra kamagra cardiopulmonary abnormalities that can manifest during a erectile dysfunction treatment . One of the most common manifestations of erectile dysfunction treatment is multifocal pneumonia, often occurring prior to acute respiratory distress and need for mechanical ventilation.6 While pneumonia is diagnosed most definitively using imaging modalities (CT and X-ray) and laboratory testing, resource-limited scenarios might necessitate the usage of a stethoscope to listen for pulmonary indications (coarse breath sounds).

Furthermore, there is growing evidence that cardiovascular disease is highly comorbid with erectile dysfunction treatment , leading to worse outcomes. The most common cardiovascular comorbidities among hospitalized erectile dysfunction treatment patients are hypertension, coronary artery disease, and diabetes mellitus.7,8 In addition, recent reports have implicated erectile dysfunction treatment in causing myocardial injury and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.9 Considering the sequelae of erectile dysfunction treatment liquid viagra kamagra cardiopulmonary manifestations, auscultation using a stethoscope can be highly warranted. Therefore, emphasis must be placed on ensuring that the stethoscope can be used safely.Assessments of stethoscope hygiene practices have widely demonstrated deficits in adherence and method.

Direct observational studies have demonstrated stethoscope hygiene rates using recommended methods (wiping with alcohol, bleach, hydrogen peroxide, etc.) between 11.3% and 24%, with unconventional practices also being reported such as placing a glove over the stethoscope prior to auscultation or washing it with water/hand towel in a sink.10,11 Such findings imply that while stethoscope hygiene practices are deficient, providers who are cognizant of stethoscope contamination are struggling to find an effective form of hygiene that does not impede workflow—a proverbial ‘cry for help.’ With regard to current methods of stethoscope hygiene, providers cite lack of access to cleaning supplies, forgetfulness, or a lack of time as reasons for not performing stethoscope hygiene.12Healthcare guidelines advise against using personal stethoscopes in contact precaution settings in order to limit the potential for cross-contamination. Rather, single-patient disposable stethoscopes are often used liquid viagra kamagra for such patients. However, the audio quality of single-patient stethoscopes is quite poor,13 and it has been demonstrated that these stethoscopes can be contaminated with pathogens that can potentially be transmitted to providers, who must share this stethoscope.14 Proper cleaning of these stethoscopes between usage may not occur in high-workflow environments, such as the intensive care unit (ICU).

Thus, a more feasible and effective modality of stethoscope hygiene is warranted.A liquid viagra kamagra ray of hope for stethoscope hygiene is technological innovation. Among the solutions presented in recent years have been a UV-LED case for the stethoscope diaphragm,1, stethoscopes made from antimicrobial copper alloys,16 and disposable stethoscope diaphragm covers.17 The challenge imposed by the first two innovations is a lack of complete microbial dis. Given that it is unknown what viral dose threshold corresponds to erectile dysfunction treatment pathogenesis, current control standards might necessitate a method that ensures zero transmission.

Stethoscope diaphragm covers alone can provide an aseptic contact surface during auscultation,17 but one is likely to encounter the same impediments stated for conventional stethoscope cleaning.12 A company based in San Diego, USA (AseptiScope Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) has attempted to overcome this issue by developing a touch-free diaphragm barrier dispenser.1 A recent article discussed the role of stethoscope contamination during erectile dysfunction treatment, stating that a specific barrier for the stethoscope is needed to prevent stethoscope contamination and subsequent transmission to patients and providers.18 A touch-free stethoscope diaphragm dispenser might be a feasible solution for this need.In the era liquid viagra kamagra of erectile dysfunction treatment, the stethoscope carries both profound utility as well as risk to patients if effective hygiene practices are not implemented. Thus, providers need to exercise caution when auscultating patients with erectile dysfunction treatment given the risk for cross-contamination. However, rather than casting liquid viagra kamagra aside the stethoscope due to this risk, safety should be bolstered through education, hygiene practice, and consideration of innovative solutions.Conflict of interest.

It is surprising that in spite of this powerful therapeutic armamentarium, <1% of patients with chronic HF are currently receiving recommended drugs at doses that have been shown to prolong life.3 The issue opens with a Current Opinion article entitled ‘Totality of evidence in trials of sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors in the patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Implications for clinical kamagra oral jelly wholesalers practice’ by Milton Packer from the Baylor University Medical Center at Dallas in Texas, USA and colleagues. The authors provide a perspective on the totality of evidence with SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with HFrEF.4 This paper is the first to issue a call for a major change in clinical practice based on the concordant results of DAPA-HF and EMPEROR-Reduced trials. The analyses and interpretations that are presented in this manuscript will undoubtedly generate considerable discussion and debate for a long time.Concern about hypotension often leads to withholding of beneficial therapy in patients with HFrEF.

In a clinical research manuscript entitled ‘Effect of dapagliflozin according to kamagra oral jelly wholesalers baseline systolic blood pressure in the Dapagliflozin and Prevention of Adverse Outcomes in Heart Failure trial (DAPA-HF)’ John McMurray from the Western Infirmary in Glasgow, UK and colleagues on behalf of the DAPA-HF Investigators and Committees evaluated the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin according to baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP) in DAPA-HF trial.5 Key inclusion criteria were. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II–IV, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%, elevated N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level, and SBP ≥95 mmHg. The primary kamagra oral jelly wholesalers outcome was a composite of worsening HF or cardiovascular death. The efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin was examined using SBP as both a categorical and a continuous variable. The placebo-corrected reduction in SBP from baseline to 2 weeks with dapagliflozin was –2.54 mmHg.

The benefit and kamagra oral jelly wholesalers safety of dapagliflozin were consistent across the range of SBP. Study drug discontinuation did not differ between dapagliflozin and placebo across the SBP categories examined.The authors conclude that dapagliflozin had a small effect on SBP in patients with HFrEF and was superior to placebo in improving outcomes, and well tolerated, across the range of SBP included in DAPA-HF. The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francesco Cosentino from the University Hospital Solna in Stockholm, Sweden who comments that altogether, the results of the current post-hoc analysis demonstrating efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin regardless of SBP values might significantly contribute to foster the implementation of dapagliflozin use in HF clinical practice by dissipating any potential safety concern linked with its hypotensive effects.6In a clinical research article entitled ‘A randomized controlled trial of dapagliflozin on left ventricular hypertrophy kamagra oral jelly wholesalers in people with type two diabetes. The DAPA-LVH trial’, Chim Lang from the University of Dundee in the UK and colleagues tested the hypothesis that dapagliflozin may regress left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in people with T2D.7 The authors randomly assigned 66 patients with T2D, LVH, and controlled blood pressure to receive dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily or placebo for 12 months. The primary endpoint was change in absolute left ventricular mass (LVM), assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

In the intention-to-treat analysis, dapagliflozin significantly reduced LVM compared with placebo, with kamagra oral jelly wholesalers an absolute mean change of –2.82 g. Additional sensitivity analysis adjusting for baseline LVM, baseline blood pressure, weight, and SBP change showed the LVM change to remain statistically significant. Dapagliflozin significantly reduced pre-specified secondary endpoints including ambulatory 24-h kamagra oral jelly wholesalers SBP, nocturnal SBP, body weight, visceral adipose tissue, subcutaneous adipose tissue, insulin resistance, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein.

The regression of LVM suggests that dapagliflozin can initiate reverse remodelling and kamagra oral jelly wholesalers changes in left ventricular structure that may partly contribute to cardioprotective effects of dapagliflozin. This manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francesco Paneni from the University of Zurich in Switzerland and colleagues.8 They note that the above-mentioned effects of SGLT2 inhibitors set the ground for a possible beneficial effect of these drugs in patients with HFpEF, where microvascular dysfunction, cardiomyocyte inflammation, and cardiometabolic alterations take centre stage.While several landmark studies have long established that implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) therapy improves survival for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death ,9 risk stratification parameters and methods for this purpose are clinically underused. In a clinical research article entitled ‘Clinical effectiveness of primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillators. Results of the EU-CERT-ICD controlled multicentre cohort study’ Markus Zabel from the Universitätsmedizin Göttingen in Germany and colleagues from the EU-CERT-ICD Study Investigators assessed kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the current clinical effectiveness of primary prevention by ICD therapy in a prospective investigator-initiated, controlled cohort study, conducted in 44 centres and 15 European countries. The study sought to assess current clinical effectiveness of primary prophylactic ICD implantation.10 The authors recruited 2327 patients with ischaemic or dilated cardiomyopathy and guideline indications for prophylactic ICD implantation.

The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality kamagra oral jelly wholesalers. Baseline and follow-up data from 2247 patients were analysable. 1516 patients with first ICD implantation (ICD group) and 731 patients without ICD serving as controls. Multivariable models and propensity scoring for adjustment were used to compare the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers two groups for mortality. Adjusted mortality associated with ICD vs.

Control was significantly lower (hazard ratio kamagra oral jelly wholesalers 0.731). Subgroup analyses indicated no ICD benefit in diabetics or in those aged ≥75 years.

Intracoronary ALLogeneic heart STem cells to Achieve myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR). A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial. See pages 3451--3458).The authors conclude that in contemporary ischaemic/dilated cardiomyopathy patients (LVEF ≤35%, narrow QRS), primary prophylactic ICD kamagra oral jelly wholesalers treatment was associated with a substantial reduction in mortality, although this improvement was not consistent across the whole population.

The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by N.A. Mark Estes III from the Heart and kamagra oral jelly wholesalers Vascular Institute UPMC in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.11 The authors note that clinicians should be mindful of available risk stratification models and subgroup analyses from the EU-CERT-ICD and other studies. It follows that the process of shared decision-making should include careful consideration of the patient’s wishes and values, with an individualized assessment of potential benefit and risks of primary prevention of sudden death by ICD implantation.Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) are cardiac progenitor cells which exhibit disease-modifying bioactivity in various models of cardiomyopathy and in previous clinical studies of acute myocardial infarction (MI), dilated cardiomyopathy, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy.12,13 In a clinical research article entitled ‘Intracoronary ALLogeneic heart STem cells to Achieve myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR). A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded trial’, Raj Makkar from the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute in Los Angeles, California, USA and colleagues assessed the safety and efficacy of intracoronary administration of allogeneic CDCs in the multicentre, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, intracoronary ALLogeneic Heart STem Cells to Achieve Myocardial Regeneration (ALLSTAR) trial.14 The authors enrolled patients 4 weeks to 12 months after MI, with LVEF ≤45% and left ventricular LV scar size ≥15% of LVM by MRI. A pre-specified interim analysis was performed when 6-month MRI data were available kamagra oral jelly wholesalers.

The trial was subsequently stopped due to the low probability of detecting a significant treatment effect of CDCs based on the primary endpoint. Patients were randomly allocated in a 2:1 ratio to receive CDCs or placebo in the infarct-related artery by kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the stop–flow technique. The primary safety endpoint was the occurrence, during 1-month post-intracoronary infusion, of acute myocarditis attributable to allogeneic CDCs, ventricular tachycardia- or ventricular fibrillation-related death, sudden unexpected death, or a major adverse cardiac event (death or hospitalization for HF or non-fatal MI). The primary efficacy endpoint was the relative percentage change in infarct size at 12 months post-infusion as assessed by contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI. Makkar and colleagues randomly allocated 90 patients to the CDC kamagra oral jelly wholesalers group and 44 to the placebo group.

The mean baseline LVEF was 40% and the mean scar size was 22% of the LVM. No primary safety kamagra oral jelly wholesalers endpoint events occurred. There was no difference in the percentage change from baseline in scar size between CDC and placebo groups at 6 months. Compared with placebo, there were significant reductions in LV end-diastolic volume, LV end-systolic volume, and NT-proBNP at 6 months in CDC-treated patients.The authors conclude that intracoronary infusion of allogeneic CDCs in patients with post-MI left ventricular dysfunction was safe but did not reduce scar size relative to placebo at 6 months. The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Francisco Fernandez-Aviles from the Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón in Madrid, Spain and colleagues.15 The authors feel that various points need kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to be better addressed before proceeding again to clinical trials, if we want to move the field of cardiovascular regenerative and reparative medicine forward, for the sake of the cardiovascular health of millions of patients.Treatment of pathological cardiac remodelling and subsequent HF represents an unmet clinical need.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as crucial molecular orchestrators of disease processes including that of heart diseases.16,17 In a Basic Science article entitled ‘Targeting muscle-enriched long non-coding RNA H19 reverses pathological cardiac hypertrophy’, Thomas Thum from the Hannover Medical School in Germany, and colleagues report on the powerful therapeutic potential of the conserved lncRNA H19 in the treatment of pathological cardiac hypertrophy.18 Pressure overload-induced left ventricular cardiac remodelling revealed an up-regulation of H19 in the early phase, but a strong sustained repression upon reaching the decompensated phase of HF. The translational potential of H19 was highlighted by its repression in a large animal (pig) model of LVH, in diseased human heart samples, in human stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, and in human engineered heart tissue in response to afterload enhancement. Pressure overload-induced kamagra oral jelly wholesalers cardiac hypertrophy in H19 knockout mice was aggravated compared with wild-type mice. In contrast, vector-based, cardiomyocyte-directed gene therapy using murine but also human H19 strongly attenuated HF even when cardiac hypertrophy was already established. Mechanistically, using kamagra oral jelly wholesalers microarray, gene set enrichment analyses, and chromatin immunoprecipitation-DNA sequencing, the authors identified a link between H19 and prohypertrophic nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) signalling.

H19 physically interacts with the polycomb repressive complex 2 to suppress H3K27 tri-methylation of the antihypertrophic Tescalcin locus which in turn leads to reduced NFAT expression and activity.Thum and colleagues conclude that H19 is highly conserved and down-regulated in failing hearts from mice, pigs, and humans. H19 gene therapy prevents and reverses experimental pressure overload-induced HF. H19 acts as an antihypertrophic lncRNA and represents a promising therapeutic target to combat pathological cardiac kamagra oral jelly wholesalers remodelling. The manuscript is accompanied by an Editorial by Gianluigi Condorelli from the Humanitas University in Rozzano, Italy and colleagues. The authors note that dysregulation of epigenetic mechanisms leading to aberrant loss of cardiomyocyte homeostasis is kamagra oral jelly wholesalers a critical point to consider in understanding the onset of cardiovascular pathologies.

Thus exploiting lncRNAs as therapeutic agents in myocardial disease could pave the way for efficaciously combatting one of the greatest healthcare burdens worldwide.19With the advent of omics, an innovative inductive method has provided researchers with possible ways new to monitor health and disease. This approach incorporates data from studies of the genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome to focus on the assessment of a varied range of biomolecules.20 In a clinical review article entitled ‘Omics phenotyping in heart failure. The next frontier’ Antoni Bayes-Genis from the Cardiology Service, Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol in Badalona, Spain and colleagues provide a state-of-the-art review aiming to provide an up-to-date look at breakthrough omic technologies that are helping to unravel HF kamagra oral jelly wholesalers disease mechanisms and heterogeneity.21 Genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics in HF are reviewed in depth. In addition, there is a thorough, expert discussion regarding the value of omics in identifying novel disease pathways, advancing understanding of disease mechanisms, differentiating HF phenotypes, yielding biomarkers for diagnosis or prognosis, or identifying new therapeutic targets in HF. The combination of multiple omics technologies may create a more comprehensive picture of the factors kamagra oral jelly wholesalers and pathophysiology involved in HF than achieved by either one alone, and provides a rich resource for predictive phenotype modelling.

However, the successful translation of omics tools as solutions to clinical HF requires that the observations are robust and reproducible, and can be validated across multiple independent populations to ensure confidence in clinical decision-making.This issue is also complemented by a Discussion Forum contribution.

To cover the increasing workload, the hospital required additional medical personnel to provide care for the numerous erectile dysfunction treatment patients that were being seen. Prior to examining erectile dysfunction treatment-positive patients, she donned appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)—a gown, gloves, N95 mask, and face shield kamagra oral jelly wholesalers.

As part of her physical exam, she was obliged to auscultate her patients with a stethoscope, listening for cardiopulmonary abnormalities that can be comorbid with severe erectile dysfunction treatment . Thus, she was required to unzip her gown and keep her stethoscope either in her ears or around her neck. She used a standard-length Littman Cardiology™ stethoscope, requiring her to be in close kamagra oral jelly wholesalers proximity to the patient (i.e. Lean over to the patient’s level).One day after her rounds, she developed a sore throat. She subsequently was tested positive for kamagra oral jelly wholesalers erectile dysfunction treatment via polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

The resident cardiologist remembered one patient that she had examined where she suspected the transmission occurred. She recalls examining a patient who was erectile dysfunction treatment positive. Prior to the patient’s intubation she applied kamagra oral jelly wholesalers her own stethoscope directly to the patient’s chest to perform auscultation. The resident was perspiring and beginning to feel exhausted from her prior rounding and was breathing heavily as she unzipped her gown to place the stethoscope back within. The resident believes that erectile dysfunction treatment viral particles which were transmitted to the stethoscope became aerosolized and inhaled kamagra oral jelly wholesalers as she brought the stethoscope close to her mouth while tucking it back into her gown.

The resident recovered, re-tested negative for erectile dysfunction treatment, and has now returned to her normal duties.The erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra has called into question the triple-faceted role of the stethoscope. A diagnostic tool, symbol of patient–provider connection, and possible vector for infectious disease (Figure 1). A recent article kamagra oral jelly wholesalers in the American Journal of Medicine discusses developments in each arm of this triple role with reference to erectile dysfunction treatment, arguing that developments in stethoscope diagnostic technology, a need to bolster clinical skills, and developments in stethoscope hygiene methods will perpetuate both its relevance and safety. This argument was made in light of those who believe the stethoscope will become obsolete with the development of more advanced technologies, as well as its potential to transmit disease.1 It is clear that a contaminated stethoscope might pose a danger to patients and providers, and can be a potential vector for the transmission of erectile dysfunction treatment, as illustrated in the case above. Thus, providers should seek to educate themselves on stethoscope contamination, kamagra oral jelly wholesalers assess the current methods of hygiene, and innovate accordingly rather than cast the stethoscope aside.

And a potential kamagra oral jelly wholesalers vector for infectious disease. As increased control vigilance has placed the stethoscope in a position of contention. Each facet of the stethoscope must be weighed in consideration of medicines’s cherished symbol.Studies have demonstrated that stethoscopes can harbour similar levels and types of microbes to those on one’s hand.2 Thus, it is no kamagra oral jelly wholesalers surprise that the stethoscope has been christened as the physician’s ‘third hand’, with reference both to its potential for pathogen transmission and its integral role in patient–provider connection. Despite this, no clear guidelines exist for performing stethoscope hygiene. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) classifies the stethoscope as a ‘non-critical’ medical device (i.e.

Only in contact with intact skin, not with bodily fluids), and recommends cleaning between as often as after contact with each patient to once weekly using an alcohol or bleach-based disinfectant.3 It has been demonstrated that kamagraes, including erectile dysfunction treatment,4 are capable of surviving on skin and other surfaces for an extended period of time.5 Thus, current guidelines may not adequately reflect the risk that stethoscope kamagra oral jelly wholesalers contamination poses.erectile dysfunction treatment has fostered an era of increased control vigilance, and thus the benefits of the stethoscope must be rationally weighed against the risks. In the vignette posed here, the cardiology resident felt the need to use her stethoscope to assess the erectile dysfunction treatment patients on her round. Her likely rationale was kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the utility it provides in assessing the variety of cardiopulmonary abnormalities that can manifest during a erectile dysfunction treatment . One of the most common manifestations of erectile dysfunction treatment is multifocal pneumonia, often occurring prior to acute respiratory distress and need for mechanical ventilation.6 While pneumonia is diagnosed most definitively using imaging modalities (CT and X-ray) and laboratory testing, resource-limited scenarios might necessitate the usage of a stethoscope to listen for pulmonary indications (coarse breath sounds). Furthermore, there is growing evidence that cardiovascular disease is highly comorbid with erectile dysfunction treatment , leading to worse outcomes.

The most common cardiovascular comorbidities among hospitalized erectile dysfunction treatment patients are hypertension, kamagra oral jelly wholesalers coronary artery disease, and diabetes mellitus.7,8 In addition, recent reports have implicated erectile dysfunction treatment in causing myocardial injury and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.9 Considering the sequelae of erectile dysfunction treatment cardiopulmonary manifestations, auscultation using a stethoscope can be highly warranted. Therefore, emphasis must be placed on ensuring that the stethoscope can be used safely.Assessments of stethoscope hygiene practices have widely demonstrated deficits in adherence and method. Direct observational studies have demonstrated stethoscope hygiene rates using recommended methods (wiping with alcohol, bleach, hydrogen peroxide, etc.) between 11.3% and 24%, with unconventional practices also being reported such as placing a glove over the stethoscope prior to auscultation or washing it with water/hand towel in a sink.10,11 Such findings imply that while stethoscope hygiene practices are deficient, providers who are cognizant of stethoscope contamination are struggling to find an effective form of hygiene that does not impede workflow—a proverbial ‘cry for help.’ With regard to current methods of stethoscope hygiene, providers cite lack of access to cleaning supplies, forgetfulness, or a lack of time as reasons for not performing stethoscope hygiene.12Healthcare guidelines advise against using personal stethoscopes in contact precaution settings in order to limit the potential for cross-contamination. Rather, single-patient disposable stethoscopes kamagra oral jelly wholesalers are often used for such patients. However, the audio quality of single-patient stethoscopes is quite poor,13 and it has been demonstrated that these stethoscopes can be contaminated with pathogens that can potentially be transmitted to providers, who must share this stethoscope.14 Proper cleaning of these stethoscopes between usage may not occur in high-workflow environments, such as the intensive care unit (ICU).

Thus, a more feasible and effective modality of stethoscope kamagra oral jelly wholesalers hygiene is warranted.A ray of hope for stethoscope hygiene is technological innovation. Among the solutions presented in recent years have been a UV-LED case for the stethoscope diaphragm,1, stethoscopes made from antimicrobial copper alloys,16 and disposable stethoscope diaphragm covers.17 The challenge imposed by the first two innovations is a lack of complete microbial dis. Given that it is unknown what viral dose threshold corresponds to erectile dysfunction treatment pathogenesis, current control standards might necessitate a method that ensures zero transmission. Stethoscope diaphragm covers alone can provide an aseptic contact surface during auscultation,17 but one is likely to encounter the same impediments stated for conventional stethoscope cleaning.12 A company based in San Diego, USA (AseptiScope Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) has attempted to overcome this issue by developing a touch-free diaphragm barrier dispenser.1 A recent article discussed the role of stethoscope contamination during erectile dysfunction treatment, stating that a specific barrier for the stethoscope is needed to prevent stethoscope contamination and subsequent transmission to patients and providers.18 A touch-free stethoscope diaphragm dispenser might be a feasible solution kamagra oral jelly wholesalers for this need.In the era of erectile dysfunction treatment, the stethoscope carries both profound utility as well as risk to patients if effective hygiene practices are not implemented. Thus, providers need to exercise caution when auscultating patients with erectile dysfunction treatment given the risk for cross-contamination.

However, rather than casting aside the stethoscope due to this risk, safety kamagra oral jelly wholesalers should be bolstered through education, hygiene practice, and consideration of innovative solutions.Conflict of interest.

What should I watch for while taking Kamagra?

If you notice any changes in your vision while taking this drug, call your doctor or health care professional as soon as possible. Call your health care provider right away if you have any change in vision. Contact you doctor or health care professional right away if the erection lasts longer than 4 hours or if it becomes painful. This may be a sign of a serious problem and must be treated right away to prevent permanent damage. If you experience symptoms of nausea, dizziness, chest pain or arm pain upon initiation of sexual activity after taking Kamagra, you should refrain from further activity and call your doctor or health care professional as soon as possible. Using Kamagra does not protect you or your partner against HIV (the kamagra that causes AIDS) or other sexually transmitted diseases.

Super kamagra uk

End of term report‘Brown super kamagra uk i loved this. You may discuss your report with the head now. You should know, there are some super kamagra uk issues.’ Many of you will have similar recollections of mid-July during their schooldays.

The annual feedback lurking, snake-like in the reeds, freedom never granted until the teachers’ handwritten, often indecipherable words had been parentally decodified at home, my own Achilles’ heels art and English literature perennial causes of teachers’ deep sighs. I acknowledge that the stick men figures of my primary school art failed to evolve into anything more than uncannily similar stick men figures over the course of my pre-teenage years, the point at which my metaphorical knotted sheets and I furnished an escape. Are we also, collectively, guilty of leaving our super kamagra uk socks proverbially at ankle length in places?.

Asthma. What are super kamagra uk the priorities?. We kick off with a blistering pair of editorials which eviscerate a common practice from opposite, but not necessarily, mutually exclusive angles.

The first is by Ian Sinha and argues the case for the replacement of prednisolone with dexamethasone in acute asthma attacks. The ubiquitous super kamagra uk prednisolone is, its detractors assert, known for its (gustatory, olfactory and visual) unpalatability. Once sampled, no child ever trusts pink medicine again – its emetogenic capacity and potential for non-compliance given the 3 day rather than 1 day course often cited as additional drawbacks.

Mark Levy and colleagues challenge the need for the abandonment of prednisolone largely based on the lack of super kamagra uk hard evidence. This is where interpretation has to be disentangled from personal biases. Not easy and the reality is that even the most robust meta-analyses can’t always furnish us with ‘the answers’.

I could, but won’t take sides on this (just now) as it would spoil your fun, but perhaps this is too close to call and, as long as the right children (school age) get some steroids (of one hue or another) early on and the super kamagra uk wrong children (most preschoolers) don’t that might be a reasonable compromise. There are other high-profile priorities like the use of high protracted courses of beta agonists and after discharge underuse of inhaled steroid-LABA combinations. I’m already super kamagra uk looking forward to the next round of discussions.

The UK (and we can shoegaze all we like) is a perennial ‘could do better’/end of year report C-performer. Not as bad as my F grade art, of course, but, how hard can it be to score at least a B grade?. See pages 729 and 730Neonatal super kamagra uk sepsis.

New dataThough a great deal of credit is due for progress during the Millennium and early Sustainable Development goal eras, the data can’t disguise the areas where little changed. Until recently at least, perinatal mortality was one. A rule of thumb super kamagra uk reminder.

In most low and middle income countries infant mortality accounts for about two thirds of all under 5 mortality. Of infant mortality, about two thirds super kamagra uk is neonatal (first month) and, of neonatal, two thirds perinatal, deaths in the first week. Causes are consistent.

Prematurity, asphyxia and sepsis, the dysregulated host immune response to to which neonates are exquisitely sensitive. We like to think we have a ballpark idea of the burden of peri and neonatal death globally, super kamagra uk but this ballpark is a very elastic one. Carolin Fleischmann and colleagues’ meticulous systematic review and meta-analysis brings some clarity, not only in overall sepsis load, but (and this is particularly useful in antibiotic selection) the early and late onset phenotypes.

Of the total screened 26 studies published between 1979 and 2019 met the criteria (including a tight sepsis super kamagra uk definition) were included accounting for 2.8 million live births and close to 30,000 sepsis. Random-effects MA estimated an incidence rate of 2,824/100,000 births with a case fatality of 17.6%. Between 2009 and 2018, the incidence was markedly worse at 3,390.

This isn’t a finding super kamagra uk we can dismiss simply under the smokescreen of ascertainment bias and improvement of criteria. Take a look at the beta lactam, fourth generation cephalosporin, carbapenem and linezolid resistance patterns in other studies and one can only conclude this is not good news. See page super kamagra uk 745Non-accidental injury.

More science. New dataThe TEN4 Bruise Clinical Decision Rule (BCDR) was first reported by Pierce in 2010. It was estimated that ‘bruising on the torso, ear, or neck for a super kamagra uk child <48 months of age and bruising in any region for an infant <4 months of age, in the absence of a publicly witnessed injury' had a sensitivity of 97% and a specificity of 84% for predicting abuse.

Using data from previous studies on patterns in day to day bruising, NAI and inherited bleeding disorders, Alison Kemp and colleagues refine the tool to test its ability to differentiate between bruise distribution phenotypes. Applying TEN4 to to children under 4 years of age, with at least one bruise had an estimated sensitivity super kamagra uk of 69% and specificity for abuse of 74%, figures that will ultimately inform how we report and a court interprets findings in an area where uncertainty is the rule.

Other than the surgical approach having changed from scalpel to laparoscope, the individual and family experience of appendicitis as a package in terms of inpatient time, discomfort and cost has changed little in the recent past. For such a common entity, exploring super kamagra uk new alternatives was always going to be necessary and the surgery vs antibiotic/expectant hypothesis is one such avenue. The CONTRACT study, one of a series of randomised controlled trials tests the effectiveness of treating children with uncomplicated (for example, unperforated) appendicitis with parenteral antibiotics rather than surgery.

Bold, but not unreasonable, given the objective equipoise and long experience of this approach in some countries. It is super kamagra uk likely that the results of these RCTs will determine the route children take for years if not decades.

We aimed to assess whether infants with IHPS presented later during ‘lockdown’ compared with the same period the preceding year.Ten centres within the UK (England, Scotland and Northern Ireland) contributed data from babies with IHPS via a website (erectile dysfunction treatmentinchildren.co.uk) between 23 March 2020 and 31 super kamagra uk May 2020 (the erectile dysfunction treatment lockdown period) and between 23 March and 31 May 2019 (controls). A total of 87 eligible infants were included, comprising 40 controls (46%) and 47 cases (54%).

End of kamagra oral jelly wholesalers term report‘Brown. You may discuss your report with the head now. You should know, there are some issues.’ Many of you will have similar recollections of mid-July during kamagra oral jelly wholesalers their schooldays. The annual feedback lurking, snake-like in the reeds, freedom never granted until the teachers’ handwritten, often indecipherable words had been parentally decodified at home, my own Achilles’ heels art and English literature perennial causes of teachers’ deep sighs. I acknowledge that the stick men figures of my primary school art failed to evolve into anything more than uncannily similar stick men figures over the course of my pre-teenage years, the point at which my metaphorical knotted sheets and I furnished an escape.

Are we also, collectively, guilty of leaving our socks proverbially at ankle length in kamagra oral jelly wholesalers places?. Asthma. What are kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the priorities?. We kick off with a blistering pair of editorials which eviscerate a common practice from opposite, but not necessarily, mutually exclusive angles. The first is by Ian Sinha and argues the case for the replacement of prednisolone with dexamethasone in acute asthma attacks.

The ubiquitous prednisolone is, its detractors assert, known for kamagra oral jelly wholesalers its (gustatory, olfactory and visual) unpalatability. Once sampled, no child ever trusts pink medicine again – its emetogenic capacity and potential for non-compliance given the 3 day rather than 1 day course often cited as additional drawbacks. Mark Levy and colleagues challenge the need for the abandonment of prednisolone largely based on the lack of hard kamagra oral jelly wholesalers evidence. This is where interpretation has to be disentangled from personal biases. Not easy and the reality is that even the most robust meta-analyses can’t always furnish us with ‘the answers’.

I could, but won’t take sides on this (just now) kamagra oral jelly wholesalers as it would spoil your fun, but perhaps this is too close to call and, as long as the right children (school age) get some steroids (of one hue or another) early on and the wrong children (most preschoolers) don’t that might be a reasonable compromise. There are other high-profile priorities like the use of high protracted courses of beta agonists and after discharge underuse of inhaled steroid-LABA combinations. I’m already looking forward to the next round of kamagra oral jelly wholesalers discussions. The UK (and we can shoegaze all we like) is a perennial ‘could do better’/end of year report C-performer. Not as bad as my F grade art, of course, but, how hard can it be to score at least a B grade?.

See pages 729 kamagra oral jelly wholesalers and 730Neonatal sepsis. New dataThough a great deal of credit is due for progress during the Millennium and early Sustainable Development goal eras, the data can’t disguise the areas where little changed. Until recently at least, perinatal mortality was one. A rule of thumb kamagra oral jelly wholesalers reminder. In most low and middle income countries infant mortality accounts for about two thirds of all under 5 mortality.

Of infant mortality, about two thirds is neonatal (first month) and, of neonatal, two thirds kamagra oral jelly wholesalers perinatal, deaths in the first week. Causes are consistent. Prematurity, asphyxia and sepsis, the dysregulated host immune response to to which neonates are exquisitely sensitive. We like to think we have a ballpark idea of kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the burden of peri and neonatal death globally, but this ballpark is a very elastic one.

Cheap kamagra uk paypal

Wealthy nations must do much more, much faster.The United Nations General Assembly in September 2021 will bring countries together at a critical time cheap kamagra uk paypal for marshalling collective action to tackle the global environmental crisis. They will meet again at the biodiversity summit in Kunming, China, and the climate conference (Conference of the Parties (COP)26) in cheap kamagra uk paypal Glasgow, UK. Ahead of these pivotal meetings, we—the editors of health journals worldwide—call for urgent action to keep average global temperature increases below 1.5°C, halt the destruction of nature and protect health.Health is already being harmed by global temperature increases and the destruction of the natural world, a state of affairs health professionals have been bringing attention to for decades.1 The science is unequivocal.

A global increase of 1.5°C above the preindustrial average and the continued loss of biodiversity risk catastrophic harm to health that will be impossible to reverse.2 3 Despite the world’s necessary preoccupation with erectile dysfunction treatment, we cannot cheap kamagra uk paypal wait for the kamagra to pass to rapidly reduce emissions.Reflecting the severity of the moment, this editorial appears in health journals across the world. We are united in recognising that only fundamental and equitable changes to societies will reverse our current trajectory.The risks to health of increases above 1.5°C are now well established.2 Indeed, no temperature rise cheap kamagra uk paypal is ‘safe’. In the past 20 years, heat-related mortality among people aged over 65 has increased by more than 50%.4 Higher temperatures have brought increased dehydration and renal function loss, dermatological malignancies, tropical s, adverse mental health outcomes, pregnancy complications, allergies, and cardiovascular and pulmonary morbidity and mortality.5 6 Harms disproportionately affect the most vulnerable, including children, older populations, ethnic minorities, poorer communities and those with underlying health problems.2 4Global heating is also contributing to the decline in global yield potential for major crops, falling by 1.8%–5.6% since 1981.

This, together with the effects of extreme weather and soil depletion, is hampering efforts to reduce undernutrition.4 Thriving ecosystems are essential to human health, and the widespread destruction of nature, including habitats and species, is eroding water and food security and increasing the chance of kamagras.3 7 8The consequences of the environmental crisis fall disproportionately on those countries and communities that have contributed least to the problem and are least able to mitigate cheap kamagra uk paypal the harms. Yet no country, no matter how wealthy, can shield itself from these impacts. Allowing the consequences to fall disproportionately on the most cheap kamagra uk paypal vulnerable will breed more conflict, food insecurity, forced displacement and zoonotic disease, with severe implications for all countries and communities.

As with the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra, we are globally as strong cheap kamagra uk paypal as our weakest member.Rises above 1.5°C increase the chance of reaching tipping points in natural systems that could lock the world into an acutely unstable state. This would critically impair our ability to mitigate harms and to prevent catastrophic, runaway environmental change.9 10Global targets are not enoughEncouragingly, many governments, financial institutions and businesses are setting targets to reach net-zero emissions, including targets for 2030. The cost cheap kamagra uk paypal of renewable energy is dropping rapidly.

Many countries are aiming to cheap kamagra uk paypal protect at least 30% of the world’s land and oceans by 2030.11These promises are not enough. Targets are easy to set and hard to achieve. They are cheap kamagra uk paypal yet to be matched with credible short-term and longer-term plans to accelerate cleaner technologies and transform societies.

Emissions reduction plans do not adequately incorporate health considerations.12 Concern is growing that temperature rises above 1.5°C are beginning to be seen as inevitable, or even acceptable, cheap kamagra uk paypal to powerful members of the global community.13 Relatedly, current strategies for reducing emissions to net zero by the middle of the century implausibly assume that the world will acquire great capabilities to remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.14 15This insufficient action means that temperature increases are likely to be well in excess of 2°C,16 a catastrophic outcome for health and environmental stability. Critically, the destruction of nature does not have parity of esteem with the climate element of the crisis, and every single global target to restore biodiversity loss by 2020 was missed.17 This is an overall environmental crisis.18Health professionals are united with environmental scientists, businesses and many others in rejecting that this outcome is inevitable. More can and must be done now—in cheap kamagra uk paypal Glasgow and Kunming—and in the immediate years that follow.

We join health professionals worldwide who have already supported calls for rapid action.1 19Equity must be at the centre of the global response. Contributing a fair share to the global cheap kamagra uk paypal effort means that reduction commitments must account for the cumulative, historical contribution each country has made to emissions, as well as its current emissions and capacity to respond. Wealthier countries cheap kamagra uk paypal will have to cut emissions more quickly, making reductions by 2030 beyond those currently proposed20 21 and reaching net-zero emissions before 2050.

Similar targets and emergency action are needed for biodiversity loss and the wider destruction of the natural world.To achieve these targets, governments must make fundamental changes to how our societies and economies are organised and how we live. The current strategy of encouraging cheap kamagra uk paypal markets to swap dirty for cleaner technologies is not enough. Governments must intervene to support the redesign of transport systems, cities, production and distribution of food, markets for financial investments, health systems, and much more.

Global coordination is needed to ensure that the rush for cleaner technologies does not come at the cost of more environmental destruction and human exploitation.Many cheap kamagra uk paypal governments met the threat of the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra with unprecedented funding. The environmental cheap kamagra uk paypal crisis demands a similar emergency response. Huge investment will be needed, beyond what is being considered or delivered anywhere in the world.

But such investments cheap kamagra uk paypal will produce huge positive health and economic outcomes. These include cheap kamagra uk paypal high-quality jobs, reduced air pollution, increased physical activity, and improved housing and diet. Better air quality alone would realise health benefits that easily offset the global costs of emissions reductions.22These measures will also improve the social and economic determinants of health, the poor state of which may have made populations more vulnerable to the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra.23 But the changes cannot be achieved through a return to damaging austerity policies or the continuation of the large inequalities of wealth and power within and between countries.Cooperation hinges on wealthy nations doing moreIn particular, countries that have disproportionately created the environmental crisis must do more to support low-income and middle-income countries to build cleaner, healthier and more resilient societies.

High-income countries cheap kamagra uk paypal must meet and go beyond their outstanding commitment to provide $100 billion a year, making up for any shortfall in 2020 and increasing contributions to and beyond 2025. Funding must be equally split between mitigation and adaptation, including improving the resilience of health systems.Financing should be through grants rather than loans, building local capabilities and truly empowering communities, and should come alongside forgiving large debts, which constrain the agency of so many low-income countries. Additional funding must be marshalled to compensate for inevitable loss and damage caused by the consequences of the environmental crisis.As health professionals, we must do all we can to aid the transition to a cheap kamagra uk paypal sustainable, fairer, resilient and healthier world.

Alongside acting to reduce the harm from the environmental crisis, we should proactively contribute to global prevention of further damage and action on the root causes of the crisis cheap kamagra uk paypal. We must hold global leaders to account and continue to educate others about the health risks of the crisis. We must cheap kamagra uk paypal join in the work to achieve environmentally sustainable health systems before 2040, recognising that this will mean changing clinical practice.

Health institutions have already divested more than $42 cheap kamagra uk paypal billion of assets from fossil fuels. Others should join them.4The greatest threat to global public health is the continued failure of world leaders to keep the global temperature rise below 1.5°C and to restore nature. Urgent, society-wide changes must be made and cheap kamagra uk paypal will lead to a fairer and healthier world.

We, as editors of health journals, call for governments and other leaders to act, marking 2021 as the year that the world finally changes course.Ethics statementsPatient consent for publicationNot required..

Ahead of these pivotal meetings, we—the editors of health journals worldwide—call for urgent action to keep average global temperature increases below 1.5°C, halt the destruction of nature and protect health.Health is already being harmed by global temperature increases and the destruction of the natural world, a state of affairs health professionals have been bringing attention to for decades.1 The science is unequivocal. A global increase of 1.5°C above the preindustrial average and the continued loss of biodiversity risk catastrophic harm to health that will be impossible to reverse.2 3 Despite kamagra oral jelly wholesalers the world’s necessary preoccupation with erectile dysfunction treatment, we cannot wait for the kamagra to pass to rapidly reduce emissions.Reflecting the severity of the moment, this editorial appears in health journals across the world.

We are united in recognising that only fundamental and equitable changes to societies will reverse our current trajectory.The risks to health of increases above 1.5°C are now well established.2 Indeed, no temperature rise kamagra oral jelly wholesalers is ‘safe’. In the past 20 years, heat-related mortality among people aged over 65 has increased by more than 50%.4 Higher temperatures have brought increased dehydration and renal function loss, dermatological malignancies, tropical s, adverse mental health outcomes, pregnancy complications, allergies, and cardiovascular and pulmonary morbidity and mortality.5 6 Harms disproportionately affect the most vulnerable, including children, older populations, ethnic minorities, poorer communities and those with underlying health problems.2 4Global heating is also contributing to the decline in global yield potential for major crops, falling by 1.8%–5.6% since 1981. This, together with the effects of extreme weather and soil depletion, is hampering efforts to reduce undernutrition.4 Thriving ecosystems are essential to human health, and the widespread destruction of nature, including habitats and species, is eroding water and food security and increasing the chance of kamagras.3 7 8The consequences of the environmental crisis fall disproportionately on those countries and communities that have contributed least kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to the problem and are least able to mitigate the harms. Yet no country, no matter how wealthy, can shield itself from these impacts.

Allowing the consequences to fall disproportionately on the most vulnerable will kamagra oral jelly wholesalers breed more conflict, food insecurity, forced displacement and zoonotic disease, with severe implications for all countries and communities. As with the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra, we are globally as strong as our weakest member.Rises above 1.5°C increase the chance of reaching tipping kamagra oral jelly wholesalers points in natural systems that could lock the world into an acutely unstable state. This would critically impair our ability to mitigate harms and to prevent catastrophic, runaway environmental change.9 10Global targets are not enoughEncouragingly, many governments, financial institutions and businesses are setting targets to reach net-zero emissions, including targets for 2030. The cost of renewable kamagra oral jelly wholesalers energy is dropping rapidly.

Many countries are aiming to protect at least 30% of the world’s land and oceans by 2030.11These promises kamagra oral jelly wholesalers are not enough. Targets are easy to set and hard to achieve. They are yet kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to be matched with credible short-term and longer-term plans to accelerate cleaner technologies and transform societies. Emissions reduction plans do not adequately incorporate health considerations.12 Concern is growing that temperature rises kamagra oral jelly wholesalers above 1.5°C are beginning to be seen as inevitable, or even acceptable, to powerful members of the global community.13 Relatedly, current strategies for reducing emissions to net zero by the middle of the century implausibly assume that the world will acquire great capabilities to remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.14 15This insufficient action means that temperature increases are likely to be well in excess of 2°C,16 a catastrophic outcome for health and environmental stability.

Critically, the destruction of nature does not have parity of esteem with the climate element of the crisis, and every single global target to restore biodiversity loss by 2020 was missed.17 This is an overall environmental crisis.18Health professionals are united with environmental scientists, businesses and many others in rejecting that this outcome is inevitable. More can and must be done now—in Glasgow and Kunming—and in the immediate kamagra oral jelly wholesalers years that follow. We join health professionals worldwide who have already supported calls for rapid action.1 19Equity must be at the centre of the global response. Contributing a fair share to the global effort means that reduction commitments must account for the kamagra oral jelly wholesalers cumulative, historical contribution each country has made to emissions, as well as its current emissions and capacity to respond.

Wealthier countries kamagra oral jelly wholesalers will have to cut emissions more quickly, making reductions by 2030 beyond those currently proposed20 21 and reaching net-zero emissions before 2050. Similar targets and emergency action are needed for biodiversity loss and the wider destruction of the natural world.To achieve these targets, governments must make fundamental changes to how our societies and economies are organised and how we live. The current strategy of encouraging markets to swap dirty for cleaner technologies kamagra oral jelly wholesalers is not enough. Governments must intervene to support the redesign of transport systems, cities, production and distribution of food, markets for financial investments, health systems, and much more.

Global coordination is needed kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to ensure that the rush for cleaner technologies does not come at the cost of more environmental destruction and human exploitation.Many governments met the threat of the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra with unprecedented funding. The environmental kamagra oral jelly wholesalers crisis demands a similar emergency response. Huge investment will be needed, beyond what is being considered or delivered anywhere in the world. But such investments will produce huge positive health and economic kamagra oral jelly wholesalers outcomes.

These include high-quality jobs, reduced air pollution, kamagra oral jelly wholesalers increased physical activity, and improved housing and diet. Better air quality alone would realise health benefits that easily offset the global costs of emissions reductions.22These measures will also improve the social and economic determinants of health, the poor state of which may have made populations more vulnerable to the erectile dysfunction treatment kamagra.23 But the changes cannot be achieved through a return to damaging austerity policies or the continuation of the large inequalities of wealth and power within and between countries.Cooperation hinges on wealthy nations doing moreIn particular, countries that have disproportionately created the environmental crisis must do more to support low-income and middle-income countries to build cleaner, healthier and more resilient societies. High-income countries must meet kamagra oral jelly wholesalers and go beyond their outstanding commitment to provide $100 billion a year, making up for any shortfall in 2020 and increasing contributions to and beyond 2025. Funding must be equally split between mitigation and adaptation, including improving the resilience of health systems.Financing should be through grants rather than loans, building local capabilities and truly empowering communities, and should come alongside forgiving large debts, which constrain the agency of so many low-income countries.

Additional funding must be marshalled to compensate for inevitable loss and damage caused by the consequences of the environmental crisis.As health professionals, we must do all we can kamagra oral jelly wholesalers to aid the transition to a sustainable, fairer, resilient and healthier world. Alongside acting to reduce the harm from the environmental crisis, we kamagra oral jelly wholesalers should proactively contribute to global prevention of further damage and action on the root causes of the crisis. We must hold global leaders to account and continue to educate others about the health risks of the crisis. We must join in the work to achieve environmentally sustainable health systems before 2040, recognising that kamagra oral jelly wholesalers this will mean changing clinical practice.

Health institutions have already divested more than $42 billion of assets from kamagra oral jelly wholesalers fossil fuels. Others should join them.4The greatest threat to global public health is the continued failure of world leaders to keep the global temperature rise below 1.5°C and to restore nature. Urgent, society-wide changes must be made and kamagra oral jelly wholesalers will lead to a fairer and healthier world. We, as editors of health journals, call for governments and other leaders to act, marking 2021 as the year that the world finally changes course.Ethics statementsPatient consent for publicationNot required..
