Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Acute Reduction in Blood Flow in the Right Coronary Artery After PCI Facilitates Pacemaker‐Induced Ventricular Fibrillation

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology
Asynchronous pacing itself does not directly lead to the development of malignant ventricular arrhythmias. However, acute myocardial ischemia caused by acute reduction in coronary blood flow can result in a “vulnerable myocardium” and simultaneously ...

N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide and cardiorenal outcome in patients with anaemia in chronic kidney disease

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 848-858, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Blood levels of N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) may be modified by low renal clearance and anaemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the blood NT‐proBNP level on cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with these two manifestations.

Early Repolarization, Fragmented QRS and Tpeak-Tend Interval as Electrocardiographic Markers in Patients with Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias: a Brief Review

open access: yesJournal of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 2020
Introduction: Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation, as causes of sudden cardiac death, are entities with mechanisms poorly studied and understood to date. The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a simple tool, but with great diagnostic
