Aldosterone status associates with insulin resistance in patients with heart failure-data from the ALOFT study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
<b>Background</b>: Aldosterone plays a key role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. In around 50% of such patients, aldosterone 'escapes' from inhibition by drugs that interrupt the renin-angiotensin axis; such patients have a worse ...

Lungs in Heart Failure [PDF]

open access: yesPulmonary Medicine, 2012
Lung function abnormalities both at rest and during exercise are frequently observed in patients with chronic heart failure, also in the absence of respiratory disease. Alterations of respiratory mechanics and of gas exchange capacity are strictly related to heart failure.

Long-term LVEF trajectories in patients with type 2 diabetes and heart failure: diabetic cardiomyopathy may underlie functional decline

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2020
Background Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) trajectories and functional recovery with current heart failure (HF) management is increasingly recognized. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) leads to a worse prognosis in HF patients.

Pathologic gene network rewiring implicates PPP1R3A as a central regulator in pressure overload heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Heart failure is a leading cause of mortality, yet our understanding of the genetic interactions underlying this disease remains incomplete. Here, we harvest 1352 healthy and failing human hearts directly from transplant center operating rooms, and ...

Prevention of heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Cardiology Reports, 2002
In light of the increasing prevalence, morbidity, and mortality of heart failure, preventative strategies are urgently needed. Risk factors include coronary artery disease, renal insufficiency, diabetes, and smoking. Essential strategies for prevention of heart failure are modification of risk factors for its development, and detection and treatment of

How to develop a national heart failure clinics network: a consensus document of the Hellenic Heart Failure Association

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Heart failure (HF) is rapidly growing, conferring considerable mortality, morbidity, and costs. Dedicated HF clinics improve patient outcomes, and the development of a national HF clinics network aims at addressing this need at national level.

Transient heart rate reduction improves acute decompensated heart failure‐induced left ventricular and coronary dysfunction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), a live‐threatening complication of heart failure (HF), associates a further decrease of the already by HF‐impaired cardiac function with an increase in heart rate.

Giant cell myocarditis masquerading as orbital myositis with a rapid, fulminant course necessitating mechanical support and heart transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Giant cell myocarditis (GCM), a rapidly progressive inflammation of the myocardium, is associated with fulminant heart failure, refractory ventricular arrhythmias, and conduction system abnormalities.

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Insights into pegRNA design from editing of the cardiomyopathy‐associated phospholamban R14del mutation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA) secondary structure and reverse transcriptase template length affect prime editing efficiency in correcting the phospholamban R14del cardiomyopathy‐associated mutation. Insights support the design of structurally optimized enhanced pegRNAs for precise gene therapy.
