Response to pulmonary arterial hypertension drug therapies in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and cardiovascular risk factors. [PDF]
The age at diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors are increasing. We sought to determine whether the response to drug therapy was influenced by CV risk factors in PAH patients. We studied

ABSTRACT Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is a rare form of restrictive cardiomyopathy associated with eosinophilic disorders, characterized by apical subendocardial fibrosis and thrombus formation. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a comprehensive, noninvasive evaluation, enabling diagnosis, assessment of disease activity, and guidance of therapy.

Contemporary and Emerging Therapies in the Management of Refractory Angina: A Clinical Review
ABSTRACT Refractory angina (RA) represents a growing challenge in clinical cardiology, particularly in patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) who remain symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy and who are not candidates for revascularization.

Right Heart Remodeling in Patients with End-Stage Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis: Speckle Tracking Point of View [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Data regarding cardiac remodeling in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis are scarce. We sought to investigate right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) structure, function, and mechanics in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis.

Transcatheter Left Ventricular Restoration in Ischemic Heart Failure and Dilated Cardiomyopathy
ABSTRACT Ischemic heart disease is the leading global cause of death and frequently progresses to ischemic heart failure (IHF) after myocardial infarction through adverse left ventricular (LV)remodeling. Surgical LV restoration improves ventricular geometry and function but is limited by invasiveness and inconsistent outcomes.
