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

ESC 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)].

Early Stages of Obesity-related Heart Failure Are Associated with Natriuretic Peptide Deficiency and an Overall Lack of Neurohormonal Activation: The Copenhagen Heart Failure Risk Study

Global Heart, 2020
Objective: This study evaluated the associations between the natriuretic peptide activity and the neurohormonal response in non-obese and obese outpatients with and without heart failure (HF).

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

ESC 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.

Renal and blood pressure responses to synthetic atrial natriuretic factor in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

HYPERTENSION, 1985
Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a potent natriuretic and vasorelaxant agent that also stimulates guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) excretion in normotensive animals.

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Synergistic cardiac pathological hypertrophy induced by high-salt diet in IGF-IIRα cardiac-specific transgenic rats.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Stress-induced cardiac hypertrophy leads to heart failure. Our previous studies demonstrate that insulin-like growth factor-II receptor (IGF-IIR) signaling is pivotal to hypertrophy regulation.

Downregulation of amphiregulin improves cardiac hypertrophy via attenuating oxidative stress and apoptosis

Biology Direct, 2022
Amphiregulin (AREG) is a ligand of epidermal growth factor receptor and participates in the fibrosis of multiple organs. However, whether AREG can regulate hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is not well known. This research aims to explore the effect of AREG on

Glucocorticoids Inhibit Sodium Depletion-induced Salt Appetite in Rat [PDF]

, 2010
Glucocorticoids, produced in adrenal cortex, exert potent natriuretic and diuretic actions in the kidney. Recently, it has been found that glucocorticoids could upregulate the expression of natriuretic peptide receptor A (NPR-A), the primary receptor of ...

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

Brain Natriuretic Peptide Production and Secretion in Inflammation

Journal of Transplantation, 2012
Gene expression and secretion of the cardiac polypeptide hormones atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) are simultaneously upregulated in various cardiac disorders such as congestive heart failure, ischemic heart disease ...
