ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Background and aims The pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi), that is, the pulmonary artery pulse pressure (PAPP) divided by the mean right atrial pressure (mRAP), is an increasingly used invasive index of right ventricular function. We sought to assess the prognostic impact of the PAPi in unselected patients with aortic stenosis (AS ...

A pilot study on DNA methylation changes for non‐invasive molecular diagnostics in heart failure
ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.A liquid biopsy approach integrating the high‐resolution RRBS DNA methylation platform and network‐oriented strategy identified the hypomethylation of CPTA1, CKAP4, SPTB, SYT6, EIF2S2, and RAB11FIP1 genes as useful biomarkers in distinguishing between ischaemic and non‐ischaemic HF aetiologies.
