Clinical Trials With Pragmatic Elements: A Review of Use Cases and Real‐World Data Utilization
Clinical trials with pragmatic elements can capture diverse patient populations, enable efficient follow‐up, and reflect routine clinical practices; yet there is limited understanding of their design features, characteristics, and use of real‐world data (RWD). Based on a targeted search of PubMed/EMBASE (Jan‐2016 to Jul‐2024), a review was conducted to

Salvia miltiorrhiza treatment during early reperfusion reduced postischemic myocardial injury in the rat [PDF]
Oxidative stress may play a causative role in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, it is a relatively understudied aspect regarding an optimal timing of antioxidant intervention during ischemia-reperfusion.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Myocardial Viability: From Proof of Concept to Clinical Practice
Ischaemic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction can arise from myocardial stunning, hibernation, or necrosis. Imaging modalities have become front-line methods in the assessment of viable myocardial tissue, with the aim to stratify patients into optimal ...

Forecasting heart failure: Seasonal alignment of heart failure outcomes in New York
Abstract Background Seasonal variations have been observed in heart failure (HF) hospitalization. Numerous explanatory mechanisms have been proposed, but no prior studies have examined potential contributors directly. Our objective was to identify specific factors that could contribute to seasonal variability using a large longitudinal dataset of HF ...

Effects of angiotensin-I and ischemia on functional recovery in isolated hearts [PDF]
FUNDAMENTO: A ressuscitação de parada cardíaca pode apresentar disfunção miocárdica determinada pelo tempo da isquemia, e a inibição da enzima conversora de angiotensina (ECA) pode reduzir a disfunção cardíaca durante a reperfusão.
