The cardiac component of cardiac cachexia
American Heart Journal, 2002Recent evidence suggests the importance of noncardiac mechanisms in the genesis of the syndrome of cardiac cachexia. This raises the question of the relative role of the heart itself in this syndrome. This study sought to assess the cardiac dimensions, mass, and function and changes in these parameters over time in patients with chronic heart failure ...

Cardiac Issues in Cardiac Arrest
Seminars in Neurology, 2017The prognosis of cardiac arrest (CA) remains poor, with a survival rate at hospital discharge between 6 and 10%. To improve this disappointing outcome, efforts are needed regarding each step in the chain of survival. In this review, the authors focus on cardiac issues, as the heart itself could be both a cause and a target in this setting.

The symptom most frequently requiring investigation and consideration for cardiac pacing is syncope. This symptom is now receiving more attention than ever, mainly because of the advent of tilt table testing--a simple noninvasive procedure that has substantially reduced the number of syncopal patients remaining undiagnosed.

The prognosis of sarcoidosis often considered as "benign" is significantly changed in the presence of a cardiac localization. An in-depth interview, a clinical examination together with ECG are often for most of sarcoidosis. Certain conditions (severe multisystemic sarcoidosis, rares localizations in particular neurological, renal, gastric) lead to ...

The heart of cardiac reprogramming: The cardiac fibroblasts
Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 2022Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide, outpacing pulmonary disease, infectious disease, and all forms of cancer. Myocardial infarction (MI) dominates cardiovascular disease, contributing to four out of five cardiovascular related deaths.

Cardiac perception and cardiac control
Biofeedback and Self-Regulation, 1977The evidence regarding specific cardiac perception and discrimination, and its relationship to voluntary cardiac control, is critically reviewed. Studies are considered in three sections, depending on the method used to assess cardiac perception: questionnaire assessment, discrimination procedures, and heartbeat tracking.

Cardiac natriuretic peptides for cardiac health
Clinical Science, 2004The cardiac natriuretic peptides, ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide) and BNP (brain natriuretic peptide), are secreted by the heart in proportion to cardiac transmural pressures. They possess a wide range of effects in multiple tissues facilitating overall pressure/volume homoeostasis.

Although cardiac myxomas are histologically benign, they may be lethal because of their strategic position. They can mimic not only every cardiac disease but also infective, immunologic, and malignant processes. Myxomas must therefore be included in the differential diagnosis of valvular heart disease, cardiac insufficiency, cardiomegaly, bacterial ...

PAPP-A in cardiac and non-cardiac conditions
Clinica Chimica Acta, 2013Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), a newly discovered member of insulin like growth factors (IGFs) axis, has been reported to be a biomarker in both cardiac and non-cardiac conditions. PAPP-A mainly acts as a protease cleaving IGF inhibitors - IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), thereby setting free IGFs.

Cardiac magnetic resonance in cardiac angiosarcoma
Echocardiography, 2017BackgroundWhile echocardiography is effective for initial identification of anatomic location, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a more advantageous modality for delineating tumor expanse, spread, and blood supply preoperatively. Emerging patterns may even help generate a specific diagnosis prior to biopsy and histopathology.Case PresentationOur case
