Resetting the neurohormonal balance in heart failure (HF). the relevance of the natriuretic peptide (NP) system to the clinical management of patients with HF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The natriuretic peptide (NP) system, which includes atrial natriuretic peptide, B-type natriuretic peptide, and C-type natriuretic peptide, has an important role in cardiovascular homeostasis, promoting a number of physiological effects including ...

Isovolumic relaxation strain imaging is an accurate and sensitive approach for detection of active diastolic dysfunction: A preclinical study

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A modified approach was developed to accurately identify the isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT) using an apical three‐chamber view. Compared with conventional echocardiography, isovolumic relaxation strain imaging (IVSI) helps to detect the earlier alternations of diastolic function in transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mice.

Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Resistant hypertension in elderly: a clinical manifestation of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction? retrospective single-center analysis

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2019
Background: Resistant hypertension (RHT) is defined as high blood pressure despite three antihypertensive medications one being a diuretic. RHT is a common clinical problem and as a subgroup has not been studied widely. The present study has investigated

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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.

Tetranectin as a potential biomarker in heart failure with ejection fraction >45%: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Internal Medicine
Heart failure (HF) with left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) >45% lacks reliable biomarkers for risk stratification complicating its management, as it encompasses both heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF, LVEF ≥50%) and mildly ...

Impact of severe secondary tricuspid regurgitation on rest and exercise hemodynamics of patients with heart failure and a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundBoth secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are relevant public health problems in the elderly population, presenting with potential overlaps and sharing similar risk factors. However,

Association is not causation: treatment effects cannot be estimated from observational data in heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aims: Treatment ‘effects’ are often inferred from non-randomized and observational studies. These studies have inherent biases and limitations, which may make therapeutic inferences based on their results unreliable.
