Association of Positive Airway Pressure With Cardiovascular Events and Death in Adults With Sleep Apnea: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2017
Importance Sleep apnea (obstructive and central) is associated with adverse cardiovascular risk factors and increased risks of cardiovascular disease. Positive airway pressure (PAP) provides symptomatic relief, whether delivered continuously (CPAP) or as

Cilostazol in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction—The CLIP‐HFpEF trial

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1437-1446, April 2025.
• Cilostazol is an oral PDE‐3 inhibitor that may have advantageous effects in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). • Cilostazol significantly improved short‐term heart failure‐related health status scores (KCCQ‐12) and NT‐proBNP levels when compared to placebo.

Apnea‐Hypopnea Event Duration Predicts Mortality in Men and Women in the Sleep Heart Health Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2019
Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea is a risk factor for mortality, but its diagnostic metric—the apnea‐hypopnea index—is a poor risk predictor. The apnea‐hypopnea index does not capture the range of physiological variability within and between patients ...

Home‐operated ultrasound exam for detection of worsening heart failure (HOUSE‐HF)

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is associated with a high degree of morbidity and mortality. Dynamic lung ultrasound artefact called B‐lines can be obtained at the bedside and directly correlate with pulmonary vascular congestion. Obtaining patient‐performed lung ultrasound images in the outpatient setting is novel.
