Cardiac Energy Metabolism in Heart Failure
Alterations in cardiac energy metabolism contribute to the severity of heart failure. However, the energy metabolic changes that occur in heart failure are complex and are dependent not only on the severity and type of heart failure present but also on ...

3D bioprinting and its potential impact on cardiac failure treatment: An industry perspective
3D printing technologies are emerging as a disruptive innovation for the treatment of patients in cardiac failure. The ability to create custom devices, at the point of care, will affect both the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac diseases.

Cardiac Myosin Activation with Omecamtiv Mecarbil in Systolic Heart Failure.
BACKGROUND The selective cardiac myosin activator omecamtiv mecarbil has been shown to improve cardiac function in patients with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. Its effect on cardiovascular outcomes is unknown.

The effect of cardiac resynchronization on morbidity and mortality in heart failure.
BACKGROUND Cardiac resynchronization reduces symptoms and improves left ventricular function in many patients with heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction and cardiac dyssynchrony. We evaluated its effects on morbidity and mortality.

Cardiac Failure and Benzodiazepines [PDF]
Nine patients with stable cardiac failure and mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 30% were investigated. All had previously been prescribed a benzodiazepine hypnotic by their home physicians, but the medication had been discontinued for at least 1 month.

The risk of cardiac failure following metal-on-metal hip arthroplasty
Aims The aim of this study was to determine whether patients with metal‐on‐metal (MoM) arthroplasties of the hip have an increased risk of cardiac failure compared with those with alternative types of arthroplasties (non‐MoM).
