A Multi-Trait Approach Identified Genetic Variants Including a Rare Mutation in RGS3 with Impact on Abnormalities of Cardiac Structure/Function [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Heart failure is a major cause for premature death. Given heterogeneity of the heart failure syndrome, identifying genetic determinants of cardiac function and structure may provide greater insights into heart failure. Despite progress in understanding the genetic basis of heart failure through genome wide association studies, heritability of heart ...

Improving Heart Failure Education Prior to Discharge: An Emmi Implementation Project [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Heart failure is one of the leading causes of hospitalizations and increased health care costs in the United States. Many patients are readmitted within 30 days of discharge, resulting in increased costs.

Do we need another heart failure biomarker. focus on soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2) [PDF]
, 2016 If sST2 indeed turns into the HbA1c of heart failure, its value should increase exponentially in our management of patients with heart failure. Serial sST2 levels should allow us to titrate therapy and monitor the clinical state of the patient.

Predicting Heart Failure with Attention Learning Techniques Utilizing Cardiovascular Data [PDF]
arXivCardiovascular diseases (CVDs) encompass a group of disorders affecting the heart and blood vessels, including conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, stroke, and hypertension. In cardiovascular diseases, heart failure is one of the main causes of death and also long-term suffering in patients worldwide. Prediction is one of the risk

ROC Analysis and a Realistic Model of Heart Rate Variability [PDF]
arXiv, 1998 We have carried out a pilot study on a standard collection of electrocardiograms from patients who suffer from congestive heart failure, and subjects without cardiac pathology, using receiver-operating-characteristic (ROC) analysis. The scale-dependent wavelet-coefficient standard deviation \sigma_{wav}(m), a multiresolution-based analysis measure, is ...

An overview of the management of Congestive Heart Failure in Malta [PDF]
, 2004 Background: In July 2003 the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) issued guidelines on the management of congestive heart failure. We set out to assess the management of congestive heart failure in St. Luke's Hospital (SLH), Malta.
