BACKGROUND: It remains unclear whether social determinants contribute to major ECG abnormalities (MEA), an early marker of cardiovascular disease, which predicts adverse cardiovascular events and ...
BACKGROUND: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are associated with increased long-term risk of both maternal and offspring cardiovascular disease. The incidence of HDP has increased ...
Risk prediction has been used in the primary prevention of cardiovascular disease for >3 decades. Contemporary cardiovascular risk assessment relies on multivariable models, which integrate ...
There is an emerging convergence between atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and cancer, driven by shared risk factors and overlapping pathophysiologic mechanisms. Traditional factors, such as ...
BACKGROUND: BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been increasingly linked to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) since 2009, although supporting evidence is limited. Our objective was to ...
BACKGROUND: The disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a central pathogenic event in many central nervous system disorders. However, the mechanisms regulating BBB function remain incompletely ...
Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), the benign clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem cells, is often caused by somatic sequence variations in genes associated with hematologic malignancies. Over the past ...
BACKGROUND: Mental stress-induced myocardial ischemia is often clinically silent and associated with increased cardiovascular risk, particularly in women. Conventional ECG-based detection is limited, ...
Background: While the incidence of sudden death in athletes is low, a number of clinically unsuspected cardiovascular diseases have been linked to sudden death in young well-trained athletes.
Data on 11 patients with orthostatic hypotension and primary systemic amyloidosis have been presented. Dizziness and light-headedness or syncope significantly hampered the involved patients. Three ...
Electrocardiograms were studied in 37 patients with tricuspid atresia and in 20 with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum. The results were correlated with angiocardiographic findings and ...
Premenopausal women presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are a unique and often underrecognized patient population. Although they are traditionally considered at lower cardiovascular risk ...
