Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) is a chronic neurological disorder that has significant impacts on daily functioning, with symptoms that include, but often go beyond excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Overall awareness about IH remains low, which contributes to the suboptimal recognition of this condition, which is often exacerbated by insufficient diagnostic criteria leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.

Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) events are among the leading causes of death in women in the US and globally. Even with advances in LDL-C (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) lowering therapy, LDL-C goal achievement in high-risk women is lower than that in men, with clinical inertia, statin intolerance, and non-adherence being major factors.
Webcast: Addressing and Treating Iron Deficiency to Improve Symptoms and Outcomes in Patients with Heart Failure

Iron deficiency (ID) with or without anemia is a common comorbidity in patients with heart failure (HF), and it can have significant impacts on morbidity and mortality. Intravenous (i.v.) iron repletion in HF patients with ID can improve symptoms, quality of life, and outcomes, and this evidence has been reflected accordingly in HF guidelines, in addition to a recent FDA approval. During this activity, experts discuss the latest evidence and considerations about the screening, diagnosis, and treatment of ID in patients with HF.
Escape Room Experience: Individualizing Treatment for Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease and Type 2 Diabetes

The coexistence of type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease significantly exacerbates cardiovascular and renal morbidity and mortality compared to either condition alone. Even with the advent of newer therapies in patients with T2D and CKD, such as sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors, residual morbidity, and mortality remain, and additional strategies to slow kidney disease progression, particularly to address inflammation and fibrosis as a contributing factor to CKD progression, are needed.

This interactive infographic covers a variety of topics surrounding the role of insulin therapy in type 2 diabetes (T2D) management, including practical pearls for initiation and maintenance of insulin therapy, how insulin therapy fits in with other T2D treatment options, and emerging insulin options. The information is presented in an interactive format, which contains a mix of high-impact visuals, infographics, expert faculty videos, as well as resources and suggested readings, all organized into different segments to facilitate learning.
The Emerging Role of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists for the Treatment of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects an estimated 25-30% of people in the United States and can often progress to Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and cirrhosis. MASH represents a metabolic-driven array of multi-organ pathology that intersects with obesity, prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular ailments. Many agents are currently in development for treatment of MASH, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-Ras).

Effectively and safely lowering LDL-C is essential to prevent and reduce the risk of recurrent ASCVD events. Despite advancements in LDL-C lowering therapies, achieving LDL-C targets remains suboptimal due to clinical inertia and patient non-adherence, contributing to patient's residual ASCVD risk. The landscape of LDL-C lowering therapies is rapidly evolving, with several new and emerging agents that may help bridge these gaps.
