Sudden cardiac death in adults with congenital heart disease: Lessons to Learn from the ATROPOS registry

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease, 2022
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the most frequent causes of death in adult patients with congenital heart disease (ACHD). Despite the rare frequency of its occurrence, the incident appears often when unexpected, and many affected patients had not ...

Right ventricular function parameters in pulmonary hypertension: echocardiography vs. cardiac magnetic resonance

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Right ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is gold standard to assess RV ejection fraction (RVEFCMR), however this is a crude measure.

Higher plasma IL-6 and PTX3 are associated with worse survival in left heart failure with pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Introduction: Left heart failure (LHF) is commonly complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH), increasing morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of inflammatory proteins in LHF with PH (LHF-PH).

Right ventricular stroke work index by echocardiography in adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background In adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), right ventricular (RV) failure may worsen rapidly, resulting in a poor prognosis. In this population, non-invasive assessment of RV function is challenging.
