BACKGROUND: Penetrance and risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) are increasingly recognized as being genotype specific. Therefore, ...

Background: Major noncardiac surgery carries high rates of postoperative myocardial injury and other complications. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) was reported to decrease these complications.

The recent EARLY TAVR trial (Evaluation of TAVR Compared to Surveillance for Patients With Asymptomatic Severe Aortic Stenosis) investigated the effect of early intervention with transcatheter aortic ...

Few clinical data are available on NEXN mutation carriers, and the gene’s involvement in cardiomyopathies or sudden death has not been fully established. Our objectives were to assess the prevalence ...

Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common and progressive valve disease with significant mortality and hospitalization burden. Tricuspid transcatheter edge-to-edge repair provides a treatment option ...

The optimal duration of anticoagulation therapy for patients with cancer and acute low-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) is clinically relevant, but evidence is lacking. Prolonged anticoagulation therapy ...

Lymphatic vessels are responsible for tissue drainage, and their malfunction is associated with chronic diseases. Lymph uptake occurs via specialized open cell-cell junctions between capillary ...

The effect of single food‐based dietary interventions on the American Heart Association's cardiovascular health score, Life's Essential 8 (LE8), is unclear. The aim of this study was to examine the ...

Cardiomyocytes in the adult human heart show a regenerative capacity, with an annual renewal rate of ≈0.5%. Whether this regenerative capacity of human cardiomyocytes is employed in heart failure has ...

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women, yet differences exist among certain racial and ethnic groups. Aside from traditional risk factors, behavioral and environmental factors ...

Cardiometabolic diseases, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes, are major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite progress in prevention and treatment, recent trends show a ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has become the most prevalent type of heart failure, but effective treatments are lacking. Cardiac lymphatics play a crucial role in maintaining ...
