View Post 13 minute read This content is machine translated Why lipoprotein(a) is the biggest therapeutic vacuum in cardiology Lp(a): The underestimated risk factor before the turning point Cardiology Education Endocrinology and Diabetology RX Studies One in five people worldwide has a genetically elevated lipoprotein(a) – and knows nothing about it. Unlike LDL cholesterol, this independent, causally significant risk factor cannot be significantly influenced by diet, exercise or statins. This therapeutic gap has existed for decades. Now we are close to the turning point: RNA-based drugs reduce Lp(a) by up to 95%, and the first cardiac outcomes study, Lp(a)HORIZON, expects its results in the first half of 2026. The Focused Update of the ESC/EAS dyslipidemia guidelines published in 2025 anchors Lp(a) as a mandatory screening target for all adults for the first time….

The tripled risk of depression in the perimenopause, PMDS (premenstrual dysphoric disorder), which is recognized as an independent psychiatric diagnosis, and pathological fear of childbirth (tokophobia) directly affect daily care in gynaecological practices. Each of these entities has a clear biological basis, classifiable symptoms, validated diagnostic tools and evidence-based treatment options – and yet it often takes years between the first symptom and the correct diagnosis….

CME continuing education Dermatology and venereology Endocrinology and Diabetology Nutrition RX Studies Wound healing is a complex process. Depending on which wound healing phase you are in, a wide variety of mediators are involved. A finely tuned combination of all basic nutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats), minerals, vitamins and trace elements is required as a basis for this.

In 2025 and 2026, new insights into the pathophysiology have fundamentally expanded the picture of PCOS: the gut-microbiome axis, the neuroendocrine gut-brain axis and chronic low-grade inflammation are playing an increasingly central role. At the same time, GLP-1 receptor agonists such as semaglutide and tirzepatide are experiencing a clinical breakthrough as an off-label option for PCOS with a metabolic phenotype….

Heart failure is one of the most common and prognostically most serious complications of type 2 diabetes. GLP-1 receptor agonists in subcutaneous formulation have already been shown to be effective in reducing heart failure events. With the secondary analysis of the SOUL trial, comprehensive data is now available for the first time for the oral formulation of semaglutide – and it shows: Heart failure outcomes are improved primarily in patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), while no effect is…

AD trajectories: Summary of current findings Allergology and clinical immunology Congress Reports Dermatology and venereology RX Studies Epidemiologic analyses and longitudinal studies show that the majority of infants affected by AD are symptom-free as adults, but in some, AD persists into adulthood. This is associated with an increased risk of developing IgE-mediated atopic comorbidities. Corresponding correlations have been deciphered in cohort studies. The knowledge gained from this can be helpful in counseling AD sufferers and their families….

At the same time, the AUA/SUFU Guideline 2024 has restructured the management of overactive bladder – moving away from rigid staged regimens towards patient-centered treatment choices. Robotic sacrocolpopexy is establishing itself as the standard for apical defects, and new findings on de novo stress incontinence after prolapse repair are influencing preoperative counseling….
