Stress echocardiography in coronary artery disease: a practical guideline from the British Society of Echocardiography

open access: yesEcho Research and Practice, 2019
Stress echocardiography is an established technique for assessing coronary artery disease. It has primarily been used for the diagnosis and assessment of patients presenting with chest pain in whom there is an intermediate probability of coronary artery ...

Stressing the Cardiopulmonary Vascular System: The Role of Echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The cardiopulmonary vascular system represents a key determinant of prognosis in several cardiorespiratory diseases. Although right heart catheterization is considered the gold standard for assessing pulmonary hemodynamics, a comprehensive noninvasive ...

Clinical and Echocardiographic Outcomes After Implantation of the ALLEGRA Transcatheter Valve Using the Fully Repositionable IMPERIA Delivery System: One‐Year Results of the EMPIRE I Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The EMPIRE I study assessed the early (30 days) safety and efficacy of a new fully repositionable delivery system (IMPERIA) for the commercially available ALLEGRA transcatheter aortic valve in patients with either severe native aortic stenosis or a degenerated surgical bioprosthesis.

Stress Echocardiography Positivity Predicts Cancer Death

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundStress echocardiography (SE) predicts cardiac death, but an increasing share of cardiac patients eventually die of cancer. The aim of the study was to assess whether SE positivity predicts cancer death.

Nine‐Year Follow‐Up After M‐TEER for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has become an established therapeutic option for patients with severe secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). While randomized trials and registry data have reported outcomes up to 5 years, longer follow‐up data remain scarce.

The Serotonin 2B (5‐HT2B) Receptor: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence on the Safety Considerations and Therapeutic Potential for the Treatment of Depression

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...
