The diagnosis of atrial cardiomyopathy (AtCM) requires electrical atrial dysfunction, with evidence of either mechanical atrial dysfunction, atrial enlargement, or excessive atrial fibrosis. The diagnostic cut‐points presented are for standard electrocardiogram and echocardiogram studies (see Figure 1 for further detail).

Numerical simulation of blood flow and pressure drop in the pulmonary arterial and venous circulation [PDF]
A novel multiscale mathematical and computational model of the pulmonary circulation is presented and used to analyse both arterial and venous pressure and flow. This work is a major advance over previous studies by Olufsen et al. (Ann Biomed Eng 28:1281–

Update on Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a distinct pulmonary vascular disease caused by chronic obstruction of major pulmonary arteries that is amenable to cure by pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA). Main features of CTEPH as opposed to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are a nonhomogeneous distribution of disease in segments of the ...

Interatrial shunt devices for heart failure with normal ejection fraction: a technology update [PDF]
Heart failure with normal ejection fraction (HeFNEF) accounts for ~50% of heart failure admissions. Its pathophysiology and diagnostic criteria are yet to be defined clearly which may hinder the search for effective treatments.

Familial Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is an uncommon disease that is the most serious complication associated with unresolved pulmonary embolism. This disease has several risk factors, but no familial pattern has been described. Few thrombophilic conditions have been reported to increase risk of CTEPH, and none of the hereditary ...
