Impact of Elevated Preprocedural Left Ventricular Filling Pressure on Prognosis of Mild Paravalvular Regurgitation Following Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Paravalvular regurgitation (PVR) following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a complication linked to poor outcomes. The prognostic impact of mild PVR, particularly in patients with elevated preprocedural left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, remains uncertain.

Natriuretic Peptides, Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarkers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In humans, the natriuretic peptide family consists of three different types of peptides: atrial natriuretic peptide (synonym: atrial natriuretic factor), B-type natriuretic peptide (synonym: brain natriuretic peptide) and C-natriuretic peptide.1 ...

Medical treatment of ascites in cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Medical treatment of cirrhotic ascites is essentially supportive, dictated by the patient's discomfort, impaired cardiovascular or respiratory function and potential for infection. Treatment of ‘simple’ ascites (moderate fluid accumulation, serum albumin

Increased Thrombogenicity is Associated With Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Patients With STEMI—A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Up to 50% of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) develop coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Aims This study aims to assess whether a prothrombotic state of coronary blood, defined by thromboelastography (TEG), is associated with post ...

Epigenetic Changes Related to Hypertension in Asian Adults: A Systematic Review

open access: yesChronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
PRISMA study flow diagram. ABSTRACT Background Elevated high blood pressure is controlled by complicated, little‐understood genetic and epigenetic pathways that are influenced by both heritable and environmental variables. Many adult systolic and diastolic blood pressure‐related genomic loci have been identified through previous genome‐wide association

Molecular Implications of natriuretic peptides in the protection from hypertension and target organ damage development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The pathogenesis of hypertension, as a multifactorial trait, is complex. High blood pressure levels, in turn, concur with the development of cardiovascular damage.

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Ornipressin in the treatment of functional renal failure in decompensated liver cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
In 11 patients with decompensated cirrhosis and deteriorating renal function, the effect of the vasoconstrictor substance 8-ornithin vasopressin (ornipressin; POR 8; Sandoz, Basel, Switzerland) on renal function, hemodynamic parameters, and humoral ...

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 799-808, April 2025.
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Detection of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) transcript in the rat heart and immune organs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Previous studies suggested the expression of mRNA, coding for CNP, exclusively in the central nervous system. In the present study, using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique instead of the less sensitive Northern blot hybridization, CNP ...
