Interleukin-1 blockade in recently decompensated systolic heart failure: study design of the recently decompensated heart failure anakinra response trial (RED-HART) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Heart Failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by dyspnea, fatigue, and poor exercise capacity due to impaired cardiac function. The incidence of HF is increasing and represents the leading cause of hospitalization in the United States among ...

Finerenone in diabetic chronic kidney disease—Real‐world insights including patients with HFpEF or HFmrEF

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Finerenone, a highly selective non‐steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, was approved for the treatment of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (diabetic kidney disease, DKD). Finerenone reduced the composite endpoint of heart failure events and cardiovascular death in patients with heart ...

The utility of urine biomarkers in diuretic resistance prediction in heart failure hospitalization

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
High urine pi‐GST concentration might be a marker for the development of loop diuretic resistance in patients with congestive heart failure hospitalization. Abstract Aims Loop diuretic resistance (LDR) in patients with heart failure hospitalization (HHF) is associated with worse clinical outcomes.

Early and late systolic wall stress differentially relate to myocardial contraction and relaxation in middle-aged adults: the Asklepios study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Experimental studies implicate late systolic load as a determinant of impaired left ventricular (LV) relaxation. We aimed to assess the relationship between the myocardial loading sequence and left ventricular (LV) contraction and relaxation.

Relevance of residual tricuspid regurgitation for right ventricular reverse remodelling after tricuspid valve intervention in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation and right‐sided heart failure

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Right ventricular reverse remodelling after transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI). Optimal tricuspid regurgitation (TR) reduction is critical for right ventricular reverse remodelling. CMR, cardiac magnetic resonance; echo, echocardiography; RV EDV, right ventricular end‐diastolic volume. Abstract Aims Right ventricular reverse remodelling (

Effects of geranylgeranylacetone on diastolic and microvascular function in patients with heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction: A phase 2, randomized, placebo‐controlled, crossover trial

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a major healthcare burden with limited treatment options. Geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) has been shown to improve myocardial compliance and endothelial function in preclinical models.

Regional myocardial function in healthy adults: assessment through tissue Doppler echocardiography

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2003
OBJECTIVE: To characterize left ventricular regional myocardial function through tissue Doppler echocardiography in healthy adults and to assess the influence of aging in this function.

Atrial cardiomyopathy: From healthy atria to atrial failure. A clinical consensus statement of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The diagnosis of atrial cardiomyopathy (AtCM) requires electrical atrial dysfunction, with evidence of either mechanical atrial dysfunction, atrial enlargement, or excessive atrial fibrosis. The diagnostic cut‐points presented are for standard electrocardiogram and echocardiogram studies (see Figure 1 for further detail).

Magnetic resonance imaging of myocardial strain after acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction: a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this systematic review is to provide a clinically relevant, disease-based perspective on myocardial strain imaging in patients with acute myocardial infarction or stable ischemic heart disease.
