Assimilated LVEF: A Bayesian technique combining human intuition with machine measurement for sharper estimates of left ventricular ejection fraction and stronger association with outcomes [PDF]
The cardiologist's main tool for measuring systolic heart failure is left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Trained cardiologist's report both a visual and machine-guided measurement of LVEF, but only use this machine-guided measurement in analysis.

Aims The aim of this phase 1 trial was to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone (previously AZD9977) in participants with severe renal impairment vs. those with normal renal function. Methods Participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) not on dialysis were ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) constitutes approximately 50% of heart failure patients. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in HFpEF is high at 30-40%.

Aims Amlodipine poisoning is a leading cause of cardiovascular medication‐related deaths, commonly managed with high‐dose insulin (HDI) therapy. However, HDI is a vasodilator that is counterproductive in managing vasoplegia. We aim to study HDI therapy in patients with hypotension following dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist (CCA) overdose ...

Galectin-3, advanced glycated end-products serum levels, endothelial function and cardiac hemo¬dynamics in post infarction heart failure patients with reduced and preserved ejection fraction. [PDF]
Epidemiological studies have reported that the rate of signs and symptoms of heart failure after myocardial infarction is approximately 25%. In addition, approximately 40% of myocardial infarctions are accompanied by left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Promising Prodiginins Biological Activities
ABSTRACT Prodiginins are a large family of at least 34 pyrrolic compounds, including the well‐studied red pigment prodigiosin. Prodiginins are produced by several microorganisms displaying broad biological activities, including antimicrobial, antiviral, antiparasitic, antiproliferative, and immunosuppressive activities.

Identification of Ischemic Heart Disease by using machine learning technique based on parameters measuring Heart Rate Variability [PDF]
The diagnosis of heart diseases is a difficult task generally addressed by an appropriate examination of patients clinical data. Recently, the use of heart rate variability (HRV) analysis as well as of some machine learning algorithms, has proved to be a valuable support in the diagnosis process. However, till now, ischemic heart disease (IHD) has been

Isosorbide Mononitrate in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Nitrates are commonly prescribed to enhance activity tolerance in patients with heart failure and a preserved ejection fraction. We compared the effect of isosorbide mononitrate or placebo on daily activity in such patients.
