Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue will explore various topics relating to glucose metabolism and its implications for cardiovascular health. These topics include the longstanding issues historically associated with cardiovascular disease risk factors, the relationship between statin medications affecting mitochondrial function and potentially leading to glucose metabolism, and the potential of glucose intolerance to contribute to heart failure. Additionally, the issue will delve into the effects of MRA, beta-blockers, SGLT-2 inhibitors, and ARNI medications, often dubbed the “Fantastic Four”, on glucose metabolism and cardiovascular outcomes. Lastly, this Special Issue will discuss the integration of IoT technologies for improving the management of cardiovascular health and glucose metabolism, offering insights into innovative approaches for real-time monitoring and personalized interventions. With IoT devices, with the capability of capturing daily activity, the detection of muscle wastage can be performed, which is crucial as it may exacerbate insulin resistance and affect glucose tolerance, thereby posing additional challenges in managing risks. By addressing these topics comprehensively, the Special Issue can provide valuable insights into the complex interplay between glucose metabolism, cardiovascular disease, and therapeutic interventions, thus offering new perspectives and strategies for optimizing patient outcomes.
