Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.

Patients receiving conventional hemodialysis have high hospitalisation rates, poor quality of life and survival compared to the general population. Many centres around the world are providing longer hours of hemodialysis - short daily hemodialysis and nocturnal hemodialysis - with a view to improving patient survival and quality of life.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Abstract Aims Body mass index (BMI) has been widely used as a simple tool for predicting cardiovascular risk. Here we aimed to analyse the distribution and cardiovascular outcomes according to BMI and waist circumference (WC) of the newly diagnosed heart failure (HF) patients in the entire population of the Republic of Korea for 10 years.

Circulating oxylipins predict mortality in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
A targeted LC–MS lipidomics approach identified arterial 15‐keto PGF2a as associated with 5‐year mortality in 90 patients with HFpEF. Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) poses significant diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic challenges, with high morbidity and mortality rates.
