Late systolic central hypertension as a predictor of incident heart failure : the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Experimental studies demonstrate that high aortic pressure in late systole relative to early systole causes greater myocardial remodeling and dysfunction, for any given absolute peak systolic pressure.

Drivers of Nature‐Related Investment Strategies Among Institutional Investors

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Institutional investors are increasingly responding to biodiversity loss through nature‐related investment strategies. Using survey data from 557 institutional investors, this study examines the drivers of strategy selection and how biodiversity risk is integrated across investor types, sizes, and regions.

Prognostic implications of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in heart failure patients with narrow QRS complex treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy: a subanalysis of the randomized EchoCRT trial [PDF]

, 2016
Aim: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflects LV systolic function and correlates inversely with the extent of LV myocardial scar and fibrosis.

Intravascular Lithotripsy Is Associated With Superior Clinical Outcomes Compared to Atherectomy: A Large‐Scale, Propensity‐Matched Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) with severe calcification remains a growing challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Atherectomy (ATH) has long been used for plaque modification, whereas intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as a promising alternative. Large‐scale comparative data on long‐term outcomes are limited.

Comparison of different strategies to measure medication adherence via claims data in patients with chronic heart failure [PDF]

, 2019
Medication adherence correlates with morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), but is difficult to assess. We conducted a retrospective methodological cohort study in 3,808 CHF patients, calculating adherence as proportion of ...

Procedural Outcome of Modern Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Proximal Chronic Total Occlusions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Long‐term outcome in patients with chronic total occlusions (CTO) depends on the target vessel and proximity of the lesion. Aims To investigate of the target vessel was associated with procedural efficacy and safety in patients with proximal CTO lesions.

A coupled mitral valve -- left ventricle model with fluid-structure interaction

, 2017
Understanding the interaction between the valves and walls of the heart is important in assessing and subsequently treating heart dysfunction. With advancements in cardiac imaging, nonlinear mechanics and computational techniques, it is now possible to ...

Transcatheter Repair of Sinus Venosus Defect Using a 12‐zig Covered Cheatham‐Platinum Stent in Large Superior Vena Cava—Right Atrium Junctions: Early Multicenter Experience

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sinus venosus defect (SVD) is a rare congenital heart anomaly characterised by an abnormal communication between the atria, often associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC). Traditional surgical repair carries significant risks, prompting exploration into less invasive transcatheter approaches.

Impact of an interatrial shunt device on survival and heart failure hospitalization in patients with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

, 2019
Aims: Impaired left ventricular diastolic function leading to elevated left atrial pressures, particularly during exertion, is a key driver of symptoms and outcomes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Insertion of an interatrial
