Rationale and design of the randomized ‘early ventricular assist device’—Trial (VAD‐DZHK3)
The VAD‐DZHK3 trial is a randomised controlled study evaluating whether elective LVAD implantation improves outcomes in end‐stage heart failure (HF) patients listed for heart transplantation compared with delayed implantation after clinical deterioration.

Abstract Background and aims The pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi), that is, the pulmonary artery pulse pressure (PAPP) divided by the mean right atrial pressure (mRAP), is an increasingly used invasive index of right ventricular function. We sought to assess the prognostic impact of the PAPi in unselected patients with aortic stenosis (AS ...

The ABDOPOCUS‐HF trial is a randomized, single‐blind, low‐intervention clinical trial (n = 168) investigating the utility of intra‐abdominal pressure (IAP) and point of care ultrasound to guide decongestive therapies during the first 72 hours after admission for acute heart failure.

Abstract Aims Dapagliflozin, a sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, has shown clinical benefits in adults with heart failure (HF), improving cardiac function, reducing HF‐related hospitalizations and enhancing survival rates. While extensively studied in adult HF, data on its efficacy and safety in paediatric HF patients remain limited. We

Prognostic impact of peak oxygen consumption in heart failure: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Based on 64 studies, each 1 mL/kg/min increase in VO2peak significantly reduced all‐cause mortality (HR: 0.86, 95% CI 0.82–0.90) and combined outcomes of ventricular assist device, transplant and all‐cause mortality (HR: 0.84, 95% CI 0.79–0.89) in patients with heart failure, though no significant association was observed with cardiovascular mortality (
