Lean ZSF1 rats in basic research on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
Abstract Aims ZSF1 obese rats harbouring two mutant leptin receptor alleles (Leprcp and Leprfa) develop metabolic syndrome and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), making them a widely used animal model in cardiometabolic research.

New Prognostic Maekers in Patients After Mitral Valve Replacement: Rolo of Metalloproteinases [PDF]
Objective: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases involved in extra-cellular matrix remodelling, associated with both physiological and pathological processes of several human tissues and systems, such as vascular system. In

Mitral Annular Function in Mitral Annular Calcification and Severe Mitral Regurgitation
Longitudinal left ventricular (LV) shortening, or mitral atrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD), reflects mitral annular function.The authors sought to demonstrate the use of cardiac computed tomography (CCT) to measure mitral AVPD and assess its contribution to LV stroke volume (LVSV) in patients with mitral annular calcification (MAC), severe ...

Percutaneous mitral valve commissurotomy
Transcatheter therapies have progressively assumed a major role in the treatment of valve heart disease. The major drivers have been population ageing, the high prevalence of valve disease in the elderly, and the consequent need of less invasive ...

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Abstract Aims The prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) severity in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the association of LVDD severity and elevated left atrial pressure (eLAP) with patient outcomes in stable, non‐acutely decompensated patients with DCM ...

Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.
