Methodological framework among international observers to understand clinical decision‐making and interobserver agreement in TPVR planning. ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) requires selecting the optimal device type, size, and position. Variability in anatomical shape may affect procedural planning.

ABSTRACT Background Deflectable delivery systems have been introduced to enhance coaxial alignment and procedural efficacy during left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO), yet randomized comparisons with conventional fixed‐curve systems are lacking. Aims The GUIDE‐LAAO trial evaluated whether the TruSteer deflectable delivery system is non‐inferior to ...

ABSTRACT Background Inflammation and immune dysfunction may worsen the prognosis of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aims This study aimed to assess whether the high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte index (hsCALLYI) could be used to predict the prognosis of STEMI patients who received emergency ...

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 ...

Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be an increasingly common health problem associated with a high mortality rate. Elevated levels of Growth differentiation factor‐15 (GDF15) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) are reportedly associated with poor clinical outcomes in a broad range of ...

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

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).
