Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
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 ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Gut microbiota‐related modulation of immune mechanisms in post‐infarction remodelling and heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 942-954, April 2025.
Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

Pulmonary circulation

European Radiology, 1998
Evaluation of the pulmonary vasculature is mainly indicated in patients with suspected pulmonary thromboembolism. The routine procedure so far is ventilation-perfusion scintigraphy alone or in combination with diagnostic assessment of the legs to rule out deep venous thrombosis. The results are still not reliable for the majority of patients.

Pulmonary Circulation at Exercise

Comprehensive Physiology, 2012
Abstract The pulmonary circulation is a high‐flow and low‐pressure circuit, with an average resistance of 1 mmHg/min/L in young adults, increasing to 2.5 mmHg/min/L over four to six decades of life. Pulmonary vascular mechanics at exercise are best described by distensible models.

The Pulmonary Circulation

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978
THE HISTORY of the pulmonary circulation provides a measure of man's thinking about himself and his place in the universe. For centuries before De Motu Cordis in 1628, 1 the blood vessels of the lungs were incorporated into an elaborate scheme that explained the origin and distribution of spirits that animated and sustained the human being.

Pharmacology of the Pulmonary Circulation

2011
The pulmonary vasculature is a complex system, and studies of the effects of anesthetic drugs on this system are often contradictory. A balanced anesthetic technique with adherence to the hemodynamic goals of maintenance of right ventricular preload and right coronary artery perfusion is the safest choice for patients with PHTN.

Digitalis and the pulmonary circulation

American Heart Journal, 1961
Abstract In anesthetized dogs, the intravenous injection of acetyl strophanthidin caused a slight decrease in pulmonary arterial pressure which could not be explained by the effect on left atrial pressure. There was a marked decrease in the pulmonary venous flow, which was often accompanied by cardiac slowing and an increase in the calculated ...
