MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

ULK1 Phosphorylates and Regulates Mineralocorticoid Receptor
Summary: Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) signaling regulates both renal Na-Cl reabsorption and K+ excretion. We previously demonstrated that phosphorylation of S843 in the MR ligand-binding domain in renal intercalated cells is involved in the balance of

Mineralocorticoid Receptor and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
AbstractActivation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in the distal nephron by its ligand, aldosterone, plays an important role in sodium reabsorption and blood pressure regulation. However, expression of the MR goes beyond the kidney. It is expressed in a variety of other tissues in which its activation could lead to tissue injury.

Homeostasis as the Mechanism of Evolution. [PDF]
Homeostasis is conventionally thought of merely as a synchronic (same time) servo-mechanism that maintains the status quo for organismal physiology. However, when seen from the perspective of developmental physiology, homeostasis is a robust, dynamic ...

Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Abstract Aims Natriuretic peptide‐based pre‐heart failure screening has been proposed in recent guidelines. However, an effective strategy to identify screening targets from the general population, more than half of which are at risk for heart failure or pre‐heart failure, has not been well established.

Abstract Aims The prognostic role of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) as a biomarker in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) has yet to be fully determined, especially when compared with B‐type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods and Results In this post‐hoc analysis of the ILLUMINATE‐CS (ILLUstration of the Management and prognosIs of ...

Treatment of dogs with compensated myxomatous mitral valve disease with spironolactone-a pilot study [PDF]
Spironolactone improves outcome in dogs with advanced myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD). Its efficacy in preclinical MMVD is unknown. The hypothesis was the administration of spironolactone to dogs with compensated MMVD demonstrating risk factors ...
