Perturbations of pulsatile hemodynamics and clinical outcomes in patients with acute heart failure and reduced, mid-range or preserved ejection fraction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundHeart failure with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) has been proposed as a new phenotype of heart failure. We therefore investigated the pulsatile hemodynamic characteristics and outcomes in patients with HFmrEF, in comparison with those ...

Myocardial Infarction in Conduction System Pacing: Trust the ECG or Rely on Algorithms?

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 153-156, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A 66‐year‐old male patient with a conduction system pacing (CSP) pacemaker, implanted after a pace‐and‐ablate strategy for persistent, poorly rate‐controlled atrial fibrillation, presented to the outpatient clinic with worsening dyspnea. Laboratory findings and ECG were indicative of an anterolateral ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (

Tirzepatide and Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Narrative Review of Mechanisms, Efficacy and Implications for Heart Failure Management

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2026.
Integrated framework for tirzepatide in HFpEF management. Through metabolic, haemodynamic, structural and anti‐inflammatory pathways, tirzepatide modifies the disease trajectory of HFpEF, leading to improvements in symptoms, functional capacity and reduction in HF events.

Association between serum matrix metalloproteinase-12/angiotensin II profile and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with heart failure

open access: yesArchives of the Balkan Medical Union, 2020
Introduction. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important target genes for angiotensin II (AII), which subsequently alters MMP expression in extracellular matrix (ECM) and lead to remodeling process. Objective. To investigate whether an association

Characteristics of patients with chronic heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction: clinical and demographic aspect

open access: yesActa Biomedica Scientifica
Introduction. A new class of chronic heart failure (CHF) has been identified recently – heart failure with mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFmrEF). The determinants and outcomes of this phenotype are still being clarified.The aim.

2-Year Outcomes of an Atrial Shunt Device in HFpEF/HFmrEF

open access: yesJACC: Heart Failure
The REDUCE LAP-HF II (Reduce Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure II) trial found that, compared with a sham procedure, the Corvia Atrial Shunt did not improve outcomes in heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction. However, after 12-month follow-up, "responders" (peak-exercise pulmonary vascular resistance
