The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

Heart failure and obesity: Translational approaches and therapeutic perspectives. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association of the ESC

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Obesity and heart failure (HF) represent two growing pandemics. In the general population, obesity affects one in eight adults and is linked with an increased risk for HF.

Coordinated expression of BMP10/ALK1/endoglin—proteins that drive embryonic cardiac and vascular morphogenesis—in patients with heart failure: The EMPEROR Program

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Aims Bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10), activin receptor‐like kinase 1 (ALK1) and endoglin form a single transforming growth factor‐β family signalling complex that is the principal driver of cardiac and vascular morphogenesis and maturation during hypoxic embryonic development. These proteins are down‐regulated with the onset of normoxia at birth,
