Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Arrhythmogenicity of fibro-fatty infiltrations [PDF]

, 2018
The onset of cardiac arrhythmias depends on electrophysiological and structural properties of cardiac tissue. One of the most important changes leading to arrhythmias is characterised by the presence of a large number of non-excitable cells in the heart,

Risk factors for strangulating lipoma obstruction and lipomata in horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Strangulating lipoma obstruction (SLO) is the most common cause of equine small intestinal strangulation and is fatal without surgery. Currently, epidemiological information is primarily limited to signalment‐related risk factors and requires further investigation.

The relationship of circulating fibroblast growth factor 21 levels with pericardial fat: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. [PDF]

, 2019
Previous small studies have reported an association between circulating fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) levels and pericardial fat volume in post-menopausal women and high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk patients. In this study, we investigated the

Pulsed Field Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Obesity: Procedural and Clinical Outcomes

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Procedural and clinical outcomes in patients with obesity undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) have been mixed. Clinical data in the context of pulsed field ablation (PFA) are currently limited in this patient cohort.

Pericardial Fat and Echocardiographic Measures of Cardiac Abnormalities [PDF]

, 2013
Objective: Pericardial adipose tissue (PAT), a regional fat depot adjacent to the myocardium, may mediate the complex relation between obesity and cardiac left ventricular (LV) abnormalities.

Establishment of a mouse model for ischaemic heart failure induced by coronary microembolization via left ventricular oil injection

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past three decades, there has been a steady increase in clinical attention to ischaemic heart failure caused by coronary microembolization. Nonetheless, a suitable mouse model for studying this condition remains limited. In the present study, we developed a mouse model of coronary microembolization‐induced ischaemic heart failure by ...

Left ventricular morphology and function in adolescents: Relations to fitness and fatness. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Obesity in childhood predisposes individuals to cardiovascular disease and increased risk of premature all-cause mortality. The aim of this study was to determine differences in LV morphology and function in obese and normal-weight ...
