Advanced heart failure: definition, epidemiology, and clinical course
(Elsevier, 2021-07-15)
[Abstract] Advanced heart failure (HF) is characterized by a progressive worsening of symptoms disabling for daily life, refractory to all therapies, and with high mortality. These patients may be candidates for life-prolonging ...
A comprehensive characterization of acute heart failure with preserved versus mildly reduced versus reduced ejection fraction - insights from the ESC-HFA EORP Heart Failure Long-Term Registry
(Wiley, 2021-12-27)
[Abstract] Aims: To perform a comprehensive characterization of acute heart failure (AHF) with preserved (HFpEF), versus mildly reduced (HFmrEF) versus reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Methods and results: Of 5951 ...
The prevalence and association of major ECG abnormalities with clinical characteristics and the outcomes of real-life heart failure patients - Heart Failure Registries of the European Society of Cardiology
(Via Medica, 2021-06-02)
[Abstract] Background: Electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities increase the likelihood of heart failure (HF) but have low specificity and their occurrence is multifactorial.
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence ...
Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension in Corrected Valvular Heart Disease: Hemodynamic Insights and Long‐Term Survival
(Willey, 2021-01-19)
[Abstract]
Background. The determinants and consequences of pulmonary hypertension after successfully corrected valvular heart disease remain poorly understood. We aim to clarify the hemodynamic bases and risk factors for ...
Is degree of chronic illness management in heart transplant centers associated with better patient survival?: findings from the intercontinental BRIGHT study
(SAGE, 2021-09-22)
[Abstract] Purpose: To explore the association between the degree of Chronic illness management and survival rates at 1-, 3-, 5-years post heart transplantation.
Methods: Exploratory secondary analysis of a cross-sectional, ...
Determinants of Maximal Oxygen Uptake in Patients With Heart Failure
(Wiley Online Library, 2021-03-27)
[Abstract] Aims Maximum oxygen uptake (VO₂max) is an essential parameter to assess functional capacity of patients with heart failure (HF). We aimed to identify clinical factors that determine its value, as they have not ...
Impact of intrapatient blood level variability of calcineurin inhibitors on heart transplant outcomes
(Elsevier, 2021-03-18)
[Abstract]
Introduction and objectives.
Intrapatient blood level variability (IPV) of calcineurin inhibitors has been associated with poor outcomes in solid-organ transplant, but data for heart transplant are scarce. ...
Validation of the usefulness of 2-dimensional strain parameters to exclude acute rejection after heart transplantation: a multicenter study
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
[Abstract] Introduction and objectives: Two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography has emerged as a promising alternative to endomyocardial biopsy to rule out acute cellular rejection after orthotopic heart ...
