@ZainabASamad @AdilHaiderMD @JunaidRazzakMD @Jhagra My mother was travelling by-road in Punjab, at Mureedkey, she had an MI, couldn't get the ambulance in time, and proper emergency care, she passed away at young age of 53, still can't get over my loss. Always think, this wouldn't have happened, if she got the timely support. Sigh

Huge study finds that Covid increases the risk of cardiovascular disease 12 months later.

"Governments & health systems around the world should be prepared to deal with the likely significant contribution of the COVID pandemic to a rise in the burden of cardiovascular diseases."

[American Diabetes Association - DiabetesPro @ADA_DiabetesPro]

New model shows, Lifestyle factors are the cornerstone of treatment but what made this study different is that in addition to RAS Blockades, SGLT2 inhibitors should be added to the standard treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes. #T2D #CUC22.
