Implications of inflammation and sex in lower extremity arterial disease
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of inflammation and sex‐related differences in lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). Key inflammatory biomarkers associated with LEAD include C‐reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), and D‐dimer, which contribute to vascular inflammation and atherosclerotic plaque formation in lower limb ...

This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...

IL‐6 in the spotlight: From cardiovascular pathophysiology to therapy
Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) links inflammation to cardiovascular and multi‐organ dysfunction. This review integrates mechanistic, translational, and clinical evidence supporting IL‐6 as both a biomarker and therapeutic target in the continuum of cardiovascular and cardio‐renal disease.

Among 2061 hospitalized HFmrEF patients, low albumin, albumin‐to‐creatinine ratios (ACR), and elevated urea‐to‐albumin ratios (UAR) independently predicted long‐term all‐cause mortality, but not HF‐related rehospitalization. The UAR and ACR did not provide a clinically significant predictive advantage over albumin levels alone. Abstract Background This
