Severe Intermittent Transvalvular Mitral Valve Regurgitation

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2021
Mitral valve replacement with subvalvular preservation is a favorable technique to protect left ventricular function and improve long-term survival. However, complications of the procedure should be considered.

Quality of life in heart failure. The heart of the matter. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association and the European Association of Preventive Cardiology of the European Society of Cardiology

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
For most patients with chronic, progressive illnesses, maintaining good quality of life (QoL), with preserved functional capacity, is just as crucial as prolonging survival. Patients with heart failure (HF) experience much worse QoL and effort intolerance than both the general population and people with other chronic conditions, since they present a ...

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance‐estimated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, congestion markers, and effect of empagliflozin in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and dysglycaemia (SUGAR‐DM‐HF)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims A cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approach to non‐invasively estimate left ventricular (LV) filling pressure was recently developed and shown to correlate with invasively measured pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). We examined the association between CMR‐estimated PCWP (CMR‐PCWP) and other imaging and biomarker measures of

Circulating growth differentiation factor‐15 levels are associated with early echocardiographic signs of diastolic function impairment in the STANISLAS cohort: A 20‐year follow‐up study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Summary of the study design and key findings. The (+) and (−) signs mean that the variable has a positive or a negative association with growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF‐15) levels in the fully adjusted model (age, gender, current smoker, body mass index, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure and N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide ...

Cardioprotective effects of semaglutide on isolated human ventricular myocardium

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Semaglutide reduces late sodium current (INa) and diastolic calcium (Ca) sparks in human cardiomyocytes from aortic stenosis (AS) and end‐stage heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, thereby increasing Ca transients. Improved Ca storage may underly the enhanced contractility of human cardiomyocytes upon semaglutide.

The use of left ventricular ejection fraction in the diagnosis and management of heart failure. A clinical consensus statement of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the ESC, the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA), and the Japanese Heart Failure Society (JHFS)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract This clinical consensus statement revisits the role of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) as a measurement of cardiac function, a prognostic marker and a major criterion to classify patients with heart failure, and gives new advice for clinical practice.

A simplified approach for diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction by assessing the left atrium and natriuretic peptides

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Applying a simplified left atrial/natriuretic peptide (LA/NP) approach by combining enlarged LA volume indexed for height2 or elevated (N‐terminal pro) B‐type natriuretic peptide [(NT‐pro)BNP], using different cut‐off values for sinus rhythm (SR) and atrial fibrillation (AF) history.
