Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction due to dilated cardiomyopathy in a patient with hypocalcemic cardiomyopathy, secondary to primary hypoparathyroidism.
Assessing heart failure progression in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy is challenging due to the multisystem nature of the disease. This is the first use of an implantable pulmonary artery pressure monitor.
A 63-year-old woman presented with multiple, short-succession hospital admissions for heart failure and sustained hypertension despite intensive therapy. A diagnosis of a secondary hyperaldosteronism was made, resulting from renal hypoperfusion due to narrowing of the thoracic aorta by a huge calcified plaque, mimicking an aortic coarctation.
Cancer poses a major health and economic burden worldwide and warrants further improvement of diagnostic and treatment measures [ 1 , 2 ]. Prognosis of cancer patients depends not only on adequate and timely diagnostics and treatment of cancer but …
Heart failure poses a global health challenge affecting millions of individuals, and access to guideline-directed medical therapy is often limited. This limitation is frequently attributed to factors such as drug availability, slow adoption …
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) can be described as a global health emergency imploring possible prevention strategies. Although the pathogenesis of CVDs has been extensively studied, the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in CVD development has yet …
Heart failure continues to be a significant global health concern, causing substantial morbidity and mortality. The limited ability of the adult heart to regenerate has posed challenges in finding effective treatments for cardiac pathologies.
An expert-led symposium exploring the most pertinent issues in cardio-oncology, with a focus on the new ESC guidelines. Highlights include preventative approaches in cardio-oncology, toxicity risk-stratification strategies, the clinical management of myocarditis as an adverse effect of immune checkpoint inhibitor-treatments, and the utility of biomarkers in long-term follow-up of cardiovascular disease risk in cancer patients.
After transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), new onset of conduction abnormalities occurs frequently [ 1 ]. If high grade AV-blockage persists over 24-48 h or new onset of alternating bundle branch occurs after TAVR, permanent pacemaker …
