Biomarker profiles of acute heart failure patients with a mid-range ejection fraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES: In this study, the authors used biomarker profiles to characterize differences between patients with acute heart failure with a midrange ejection fraction (HFmrEF) and compare them with patients with a reduced (heart failure with a ...

Evaluation of Psychological Distress, Self-Care, and Medication Adherence in Association with Hypertension Control

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2022
Background. Most of the patients with hypertension (HTN) who undergo medical therapy unaccompanied by psychological and behavioral interventions may not achieve their goal in HTN treatment. Self-care is a key factor in controlling HTN.

Left ventricular deformation mechanics over time in patients with thalassemia major with and without iron overload

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Myocardial iron overload in patients with thalassemia major (TM) is one of the most important complications. The purpose of the study was to identify advanced echocardiography parameters for early identification of myocardial dysfunction ...

Circulating virome and inflammatory proteome in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and primary ventricular fibrillation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Primary ventricular fibrillation (PVF) is a life-threatening complication of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is unclear what roles viral infection and/or systemic inflammation may play as underlying triggers of PVF, as a second hit

Pathologic gene network rewiring implicates PPP1R3A as a central regulator in pressure overload heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Heart failure is a leading cause of mortality, yet our understanding of the genetic interactions underlying this disease remains incomplete. Here, we harvest 1352 healthy and failing human hearts directly from transplant center operating rooms, and ...
