BACKGROUND: Evaluation of whether dyspnea has a cardiac cause is essential. Guidelines from 2016 were reported to result in a ...

Research studies in cardiovascular epidemiology assessing the relationship between a primary exposure and a health outcome must account for the presence of what are often called third variables, ...

Acute fulminant myocarditis (AFM) is characterized by sudden, severe cardiac inflammation causing hemodynamic instability or arrhythmia. 1 Currently, no approved medical therapy exists for AFM. Janus ...

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 ...

BACKGROUND: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is substantially influenced by genetic factors. Sarcomere function is intricately associated with other organelles, particularly the reciprocal regulation ...

The protein risk score formula developed from the UKB-PPP derivation set was composed of 165 unique plasma proteins, and 15 of them were associated with atrial remodeling. In the UKB-PPP test set, a 1 ...

The 2023 Predicting Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Events (PREVENT) equations estimate the risk of incident cardiovascular disease (CVD). Developed and validated in 25 data sets with >6 million ...

BACKGROUND: Carotid web is a rare and likely underrecognized cause of ischemic stroke, particularly in young patients. Given the high risk of recurrence, diagnostic delays may have serious ...

BACKGROUND: Persistent upper extremity (UE) impairment is common after stroke. Durable treatment benefits for chronic ischemic stroke are needed. The purpose of this report is to determine the ...

BACKGROUND: Long-term outcomes and quality of life have been identified as core patient-centered outcomes for venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) research. The aim of this study ...

In this study, we screened out the unique heart-enriched and stress-overload–responded circCDYL from a substantial RNA-seq of cardiac circular RNAs, which is strongly correlated with pathological ...

Health technology, including mobile applications (apps), wearable devices, or Bluetooth-enabled sensors, may be particularly salient for interventions tailored for those with limited access to health ...
