Anticoagulation Treatment Response Among Phenotypic ESUS Clusters: Evidence From CASPR

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate treatment effect heterogeneity across phenotypic clusters of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke using causal inference methods. Methods From a retrospective, multicenter cohort of patients with cryptogenic embolic stroke, we estimated the treatment effect of anticoagulation versus antiplatelet therapy in patients ...

Aerobic interval training partly reverse contractile dysfunction and impaired Ca2+ handling in atrial myocytes from rats with post infarction heart failure. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: There is limited knowledge about atrial myocyte Ca(2+) handling in the failing hearts. The aim of this study was to examine atrial myocyte contractile function and Ca(2+) handling in rats with post-infarction heart failure (HF) and to examine

Atrial Function in Patients Undergoing CRT

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2012
We read with great interest the paper by Carluccio et al. ([1][1]) regarding the impact of left ventricular (LV) remodeling on the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). In this elegant study, the authors performed a comprehensive assessment of LV function, showing that extensive ...

Real‐World Safety of Concomitant Colchicine and Statin Therapy

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the risk of clinically meaningful muscle‐ and liver‐related outcomes associated with concomitant colchicine–statin therapy in a real‐world setting, and to determine whether concomitant therapy increases the incidence of toxicity compared with either agent alone.

Left atrial deformation: Useful index for early detection of cardiac damage in chronic mitral regurgitation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2017
In chronic mitral regurgitation (MR) left atrium is one of the first cardiac structures that is involved in remodeling and ultrastructural changes for a progressive volume overload.
