Causal correlations between inflammatory proteins and heart failure: A two‐sample Mendelian randomization analysis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1374-1385, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Inflammation plays a critical role in both the development and progression of heart failure (HF), which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, the causality between specific inflammation‐related proteins and HF risk remains unclear.

SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension

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 ...

Mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation caused by Libman-Sacks endocarditis: a report of four cases and a systematic review of the literature

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2010
Libman-Sacks endocarditis of the mitral valve was first described by Libman and Sacks in 1924. Currently, the sterile verrucous vegetative lesions seen in Libman-Sacks endocarditis are regarded as a cardiac manifestation of both systemic lupus ...

Recurrence of Mitral Valve Regurgitation After Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

Circulation, 2003
To the Editor: Flameng and colleagues1 are to be congratulated on an excellent observational study of the long-term course after mitral valve repair. This type of data is badly needed. The report could have been improved, however, with less emphasis on statistics and more on the actual data.

Practical consensus recommendations for polytherapy involving stiripentol in Dravet syndrome: A nominal group approach

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Dravet syndrome (DS) is a drug‐resistant developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, often requiring three or more antiseizure medications (ASMs). Consequently, the therapeutic landscape is highly complex, combining DS‐specific agents (stiripentol, STP; cannabidiol, CBD; fenfluramine, FFA), non‐specific ASMs, and non‐pharmacologic ...

Surgery for rheumatic mitral valve disease in sub-saharan African countries: why valve repair is still the best surgical option

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2016
Rheumatic valve disease, a consequence of acute rheumatic fever, remains endemic in developing countries in the sub-Saharan region where it is the leading cause of heart failure and cardiovascular death, involving predominantly a young population.

Comparative results of repair of Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation (IMR): Conventional against Trans-Septal Approach

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2017
Objective: Ischemic mitral regurgitation is common and increases mortality, even when mild. (American Heart Association) AHA and European association have both stressed the need of mitral valve repair in patients with moderate or more regurgitation.

Jefferson Surgeon Performs Minimally Invasive Robotic Mitral Valve Repair [PDF]

, 2012
Routine physical exams often reveal the presence of a heart murmur, which can be the first sign of mitral valve prolapse. Typically diagnosed with an echocardiogram, mitral valve prolapse is a condition in which the valve separating the upper and lower ...
