ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1416-1426, April 2025.Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Using Anatomical Markers for Left Ventricular Segmentation of Long Axis Ultrasound Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Left ventricular segmentation is essential for measuring left ventricular function indices. Segmentation of one or several images requires an initial guess of the contour. It is hypothesized here that creating an initial guess by first detecting anatomical markers, would lead to correct detection of the endocardium.

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Information about current use of finerenone in patients with heart failure (HF) finerenone in clinical practice is scarce, and its effectiveness in clinical practice in patients is scarce. We aim to assess both the baseline clinical profile and prognostic role of finerenone in patients with HF, irrespective of ejection fraction.

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) associated with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) accentuates the severity of heart failure and is a marker of poor prognosis. Little is known about FTR associated with asymptomatic DMR. Methods and results The study included 1249 asymptomatic patients with moderate or severe DMR from the ...

Approach to An Unusual Cardiac Mass: Mitral Annulus Caseoma
Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular SurgeryCaseous calcification of the mitral annulus (CCMA) is known to be a rare variant of mitral annulus calcification, a chronic and degenerative process of the mitral valve fibrous ring. It usually carries a benign prognosis.
