Abstract Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a common complication following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation and increases patient morbidity and mortality. Due to the complex and limited understanding of RVF pathophysiology, efforts to prognosticate RVF after LVAD have been challenging.

Cilostazol in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction—The CLIP‐HFpEF trial
• Cilostazol is an oral PDE‐3 inhibitor that may have advantageous effects in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). • Cilostazol significantly improved short‐term heart failure‐related health status scores (KCCQ‐12) and NT‐proBNP levels when compared to placebo.

Background: Serum soluble ST2 (sST2) levels are elevated early after acute myocardial infarction and are related to adverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling and cardiovascular outcomes in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Beta-blockers (

G protein-coupled receptor dimerisation: molecular basis and relevance to function [PDF]
The belief that G protein-coupled receptors exist and function as monomeric, non-interacting species has been largely supplanted in recent years by evidence, derived from a range of approaches, that indicate they can form dimers and/or higher-order ...

Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support for acute right heart failure: A practical approach
This is an overview of percutaneous mechanical circulatory support options for acute right heart failure, illustrating key clinical scenarios, device types, and principles of tailored device selection based on haemodynamics and underlying pathology. Abstract Acute right heart failure (RHF) represents a critical entity with significant morbidity and ...

Among 668 with cardiogenic shock included in the multicentre prospective Altshock‐2 registry, 299 patients (44.8%) received pre‐admission beta‐blocker therapy. Previous beta‐blocker therapy influenced the early hemodynamic response to vasoactive drugs, but it was not associated with in‐hospital mortality.

Tailoring therapy for heart failure: the pharmacogenomics of adrenergic receptor signaling. [PDF]
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of mortality in Western countries, and β-blockers are a cornerstone of its treatment. However, the response to these drugs is variable among individuals, which might be explained, at least in part, by genetic ...
