Early Hypertension Linked to a Poorer Prognosis in T2D
In patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D), both young-onset hypertension (onset before the age of 45 years) and late-onset hypertension (onset at the age of 45 years or later) were associated with higher risks for cardiovascular disease (CVD), congestive heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and all-cause mortality, with young-onset hypertension linked to poorer outcomes.

Adding Radiotherapy to TACE May Improve Early HCC Survival
In a comparative study, the early addition of radiotherapy to transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) was associated with improved 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival compared with TACE alone among patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

High-dose rifampin -- 35 mg/kg daily -- administered for 8 weeks showed no reduction in mortality rate compared with standard-dose rifampin -- 10 mg/kg daily -- in patients with tuberculous meningitis but was accompanied by more early deaths and slower normalization of mental status.
