Isolated Coronary Ostial Stenosis Associated With Coronary Vasopasm
A 50-year-old woman was brought to the emergency room in a preshock condition. An emergency coronary angiogram revealed 90% ostial stenosis of the left coronary artery with delayed distal filling. After intracoronary nitrate, the degree of stenosis was reduced to 75%; no other coronary lesions were evident. The patient was found to have hyperthyroidism

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Abstract Aim Heart failure (HF) is a highly prevalent condition managed in both primary care (PC) and hospital care (HC)‐based settings. HF patients managed in these two settings may differ in their demography, comorbidities and outcomes, so we aimed to compare the patient management in PC and HC in the Västra Götaland Region (VGR) in Sweden.
