Globally, nearly 10% of the population has chronic kidney disease (CKD), defined as a glomerular filtration rate less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and/or a urinary albumin to creatinine ratio greater than 30 mg/g […]
» Read moreThis study describes the influence of sex and disease phenotype on the occurrence of cardiac events in Fabry disease (FD).Cardiac events from birth to last visit (median age 50 years) […]
» Read moreWe evaluated the sex differences in 6-month heart failure (HF) hospitalisation risk in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) survivors.For this retrospective cohort analysis, adult survivors of an AMI between January and […]
» Read moreListen to the audio abstract of this contribution at https://doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehaa1058.We aimed to investigate the long-term cardio-protective effect associated with beta-blocker (BB) treatment in stable, optimally treated myocardial infarction (MI) patients […]
» Read moreIn this secondary analysis of the EMPEROR-Reduced trial, we sought to evaluate whether the benefits of empagliflozin varied by baseline health status and how empagliflozin impacted patient-reported outcomes in patients […]
» Read moreThe role of sacubitril/valsartan in patient with heart failure (HF) is established. Whether sacubitril/valsartan plays a role in improving outcomes in patients after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is unknown. […]
» Read moreThis study aimed to quantify survival rates for patients with Tricuspid Regurgitation (TR) using real-world data. Several clinical conditions are associated with tricuspid regurgitation (TR), including heart failure (HF), other […]
» Read moreExtracorporeal shockwave myocardial revascularization (ESMR) is a therapy for refractory angina pectoris. Our aim was to assess the efficacy and safety of ESMR in the management of patients with stable […]
» Read moreOptimal timing and outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in patients presenting with acute heart failure (AHF) remain unclear. In this consecutive cohort of 1547 patients with severe aortic […]
» Read moreCardiac power is a measure of cardiac performance that incorporates both pressure and flow components. Prior studies have shown that cardiac power predicts outcomes in patients with reduced left ventricular […]
» Read moreThe contemporary benefit of routine beta-blocker therapy following myocardial infraction in the absence of heart failure or left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) is unclear. We investigated the impact of beta-blockers […]
» Read moreLimited data are available regarding the independent prognostic role of pre-operative AF after transcatheter mitral valve repair with MitraClip. We sought to evaluate the impact of pre-operative atrial fibrillation (AF) […]
» Read moreThe American Society of Echocardiography / the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging recommend a conventional algorithm for estimating left ventricular (LV) filling pressure in heart failure. However, several patients are […]
» Read moreThe present study aimed to examine differences in left- and right atrial characteristics between atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with and without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). For this, 420 patients […]
» Read moreLow systolic blood pressure (SBP) was previously suggested to be a marker for heart failure and mortality in patients with low left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF). We aimed to […]
» Read moreElevated levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are associated with heart failure-related death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), but the relationship between NT-proBNP level and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in […]
» Read moreNew York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class plays a central role in heart failure (HF) assessment but might be unreliable in mild presentations. We compared objective measures of HF functional […]
» Read moreLimited contemporary data exist regarding outcomes and resource use among adults with congenital heart disease and heart failure (ACHD-HF). This study compared outcomes, emergency department (ED) and hospital resource use, […]
» Read moreClinical trials have demonstrated that a reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduces cardiovascular (CV) events. This has, however, not yet been shown in a real-world setting. We aimed to […]
» Read moreNecrotizing coronary vasculitis (NCV) is a rare entity usually associated to myocarditis which incidence, cause, and response to therapy is unreported.Among 1916 patients with biopsy-proven myocarditis, 30 had NCV. Endomyocardial […]
» Read moreThe EMPERIAL (Effect of EMPagliflozin on ExeRcise ability and HF symptoms In patients with chronic heArt faiLure) trials evaluated the effects of empagliflozin on exercise ability and patient-reported outcomes in […]
» Read moreCardiac involvement in amyloidosis is associated with a poor prognosis. Data on the burden of arrhythmias in patients with cardiac amyloidosis (CA) during hospitalization is lacking. We identified the burden […]
» Read moreColor Doppler is a widely used ultrasound imaging method for assessing mitral regurgitation (MR) in clinical practice. Nevertheless, color Doppler-based grading of the MR jet has been rarely considered in […]
» Read moreTwo-dimensional (2D) longitudinal strain (LS) predicts cardiac events in aortic stenosis (AS). However, it requires manual editing, which affects its accuracy and reliability. We investigated whether left ventricular (LV), left […]
» Read moreTo compare the incidence and mortality risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) [CVD and also ischaemic heart disease (IHD), myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and heart failure (HF)] among people with different […]
» Read moreEpidemiological evidence on the relationship between lipid profile and cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in young adults remains insufficient. Thus, we sought to explore the association of lipid profile with subsequent […]
» Read moreThe study aimed to estimate the risk of cardiac events in immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-treated patients with lung cancer or malignant melanoma.The study included consecutive patients with lung cancer or […]
» Read moreCatheter ablation improves clinical outcomes in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, the role of catheter ablation in HF with a preserved […]
» Read moreAcute heart failure (HF) management is a complex and often involves a delicate balance of both cardiac and renal systems. While pharmacologic diuresis is a mainstay of the pharmacologic management […]
» Read moreIntravascular brachytherapy (VBT) is an effective and safe treatment option for recurrent drug-eluting stent (DES) in-stent restenosis (ISR). However, the optimal therapy for patients with failed VBT is not well-defined. […]
