In STEMI-induced cardiogenic shock, a microaxial flow pump can unload the heart by reducing native cardiac output and ...

Abstract—Echocardiographic studies suggest that women appear to exhibit a greater degree of myocardial hypertrophy in response to increased afterload than men. Therefore, gender differences and the r ...

The steady rise in pulmonary vascular resistances increases right ventricular (RV) afterload pushing the RV to undergo adaptive remodeling events. Almost inevitably, these coping mechanisms become ...

Pulmonary heart failure is one of the types of pathology that most often leads to an unfavorable outcome. The study of the pathogenesis and new treatment methods in animal models of pulmonary heart ...

Acute, severe exacerbations of asthma present a challenge due to the significant morbidity associated with this presentation. For exacerbations that are refractory to initial treatments with inhaled ...

Until a little over two decades ago, hypoplastic left heart syndrome was considered an inoperable and fatal condition, with most deaths occurring in early infancy, and almost all of those affected ...

Background Coarctation of the aorta (CoA) has good modern results, but large multicentre longitudinal data on outcomes, especially hospital resource utilisation through childhood and adolescence, are ...

SGLT2 inhibitors reduced heart failure events and cardiovascular death in patients with heart failure, type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. These ...

Rationale Surgeries that require one-lung ventilation have high rates of postoperative cardiopulmonary complications with associated morbidity and mortality. Statins may limit inflammation involved in ...
