European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.Linking guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) implementation and appropriate polypharmacy management in heart failure (HF). Polypharmacy can represent a barrier to the proper implementation of life‐prolonging GDMT for HF. A reasonable balance between the optimization of GDMT and avoiding inappropriate polypharmacy is mandatory in the contemporary ...

L-space surgeries on 2-component L-space links [PDF]
, 2019 In this paper, we analyze L-space surgeries on two component L-space links. We show that if one surgery coefficient is negative for the L-space surgery, then the corresponding link component is an unknot. If the link admits very negative (i.e. $d_{1}, d_{2}\ll0$) L-space surgeries, it is the Hopf link. We also give a way to characterize the torus link $

Cardioprotective effects of semaglutide on isolated human ventricular myocardium
European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.Semaglutide reduces late sodium current (INa) and diastolic calcium (Ca) sparks in human cardiomyocytes from aortic stenosis (AS) and end‐stage heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, thereby increasing Ca transients. Improved Ca storage may underly the enhanced contractility of human cardiomyocytes upon semaglutide.

Somatic growth in single ventricle patients: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Acta Paediatrica, Volume 112, Issue 2, Page 186-199, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim To map somatic growth patterns throughout Fontan palliation and summarise evidence on its key modifiers. Methods Databases were searched for relevant articles published from January 2000 to December 2021. Height and weight z scores at each time point (birth, Glenn procedure, Fontan procedure and >5 years after Fontan completion) were ...

Unsupervised Domain Adaptation for Automatic Estimation of Cardiothoracic Ratio [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The cardiothoracic ratio (CTR), a clinical metric of heart size in chest X-rays (CXRs), is a key indicator of cardiomegaly. Manual measurement of CTR is time-consuming and can be affected by human subjectivity, making it desirable to design computer-aided systems that assist clinicians in the diagnosis process.
