ABSTRACT Introduction Preprocedural imaging can improve the success rate of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. Left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) measured by cardiac computed tomography (CT) can be used to identify infarct regions. We sought to determine whether an association exists between left ventricular wall thickness (LVWT) as obtained ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

ABSTRACT Introduction Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are projected to expand in the coming decades as the main cause of death. This study outlines the escalating burden of cardiovascular diseases in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), particularly in Latin America (LA), which is expected to surpass that of other high‐population ...

The urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio can direct personalized prevention and treatment for cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease. [PDF]
Abstract Increased urinary albumin excretion is a strong predictor for cardiovascular events in persons with and without decreased glomerular filtration rate and can be assessed with the urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (UACR), which is a selective, sensitive, and convenient method for patients.

Abstract Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective treatment for severe obesity. It usually results in spectacular weight loss, associated with improvements of obesity‐associated comorbidities. The mechanisms underlying these benefits are not fully understood but could involve a postoperative activation of the enzyme 5′ AMP‐activated ...

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: Efficacy and safety in chronic kidney disease
Abstract The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) has a multifaceted role in normal physiologic functions. However, research has uncovered the deleterious consequences of overactivation of the MR. It has been implicated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) via its strong association with glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, proteinuria, and decline in ...
