Effect of canagliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) greatly increases the risks of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. In particular, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction that develops from the early stages of T2DM is an important factor in the onset and ...

Differentiation between mild and severe myocarditis using multiparametric cardiac magnetic resonance
The pathophysiology of myocarditis is associated with mild inflammation and may progress silently, or in severe cases such as fulminant myocarditis, may lead to sudden hemodynamic compromise.
