Comorbidity trajectories before and after the diagnosis of heart failure: A UK Biobank cohort study
Time of diagnosis of comorbidities in relation to heart failure. COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; MI, myocardial infarction. Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) is frequently associated with multiple comorbidities. We aimed to define their trajectory of accrual to identify opportunities for disease prevention. Methods and results We identified

Skeletal muscle and subcutaneous fat quantity as prognostic indicators in cardiac amyloidosis
Aims Disease‐related changes in body composition are associated with worse outcomes in chronic heart failure. In cardiac amyloidosis (CA), the prognostic value of direct body composition measures is understudied. Methods and results We identified 160 consecutive patients with CA (transthyretin [ATTR] or light chain [AL]) diagnosed between 2001 and 2021

New anticancer therapies with potential cardiovascular side effects are continuously being introduced into clinical practice, with new and often unexpected toxicities becoming apparent only after clinical introduction. These unknown toxicities should be identified and understood beforehand to better prepare patients and physicians, enabling the ...

Frequency Analysis of Atrial Fibrillation From the Surface Electrocardiogram [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice. Neither the natural history of AF nor its response to therapy are sufficiently predictable by clinical and echocardiographic parameters.

Finerenone and glycaemic status in patients with heart failure with mildly reduced/preserved ejection fraction. CI, confidence interval; CV, cardiovascular; HF, heart failure; HR, hazard ratio; RR, rate ratio. Abstract Aims The efficacy and safety of the non‐steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, finerenone, have not been examined in patients
