The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

MOLECULAR-GENETICAL MARKERS OF LIPID ABNORMALITIES AND SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH
Sudden cardiac death is one of main problem of modern medicine. Sudden cardiac death is about 50 % of all cardiac deaths. The main part of people who died of sudden cardiac death didn’t have any cardiac illnesses.
