Diagnostic value of peripheral TiM-3, NT proBNP, and Sestrin2 testing in left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease with heart failure

BMC Pediatrics, 2023
Background Left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease is more likely to induce recurrent respiratory infections in the patients which exacerbate pulmonary hypertension and thereby impairs cardiac function.

Mechanism and Treatment of Right Ventricular Failure Due to Pulmonary Hypertension in Children

Children
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disorder characterized by obstructive changes in the pulmonary vasculature, leading to increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), right ventricular (RV) strain, and eventual RV failure (RVF).

The COACH risk engine: a multistate model for predicting survival and hospitalization in patients with heart failure [PDF]

, 2012
Aims: Several models for predicting the prognosis of heart failure (HF) patients have been developed, but all of them focus on a single outcome variable, such as all-cause mortality.

Sex-based considerations for implementation of ventricular assist device therapy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Women with advanced heart failure receive advanced surgical therapies such as durable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation or heart transplantation at a rate much lower compared to males. Reasons for this discrepancy remain largely unknown.
