Adaptation of renal function in heart failure
(2006)Congestive heart failure is the only major cardiovascular disease with an increasing incidence and prevalence in industrialized countries. Despite considerable progress in the clinical management of heart failure during ... -
Angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibition in patients with acute decompensated heart failure: an expert consensus position paper
(2022)The short-term mortality and rehospitalization rates after admission for acute heart failure (AHF) remain high, despite the high level of adherence to contemporary practice guidelines. Observational data from non-randomized ... -
Anticoagulant selection in relation to the SAMe-TT2R2 score in patients with atrial fibrillation: The GLORIA-AF registry
(2021)Aim: The SAMe-TT2R2 score helps identify patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) likely to have poor anticoagulation control during anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and those with scores >2 might be better ... -
Anticoagulation for stroke prevention after embolic stroke of undetermined source of presumably cardiac source: The sail to Ithaca
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Artificial Intelligence in Cardiology—A Narrative Review of Current Status
(2022)Artificial intelligence (AI) is an integral part of clinical decision support systems (CDSS), offering methods to approximate human reasoning and computationally infer decisions. Such methods are generally based on medical ... -
Assessment of the association of copd and asthma with in-hospital mortality in patients with covid-19. A systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-regression analysis
(2021)Together, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma account for the most common non-infectious respiratory pathologies. Conflicting preliminary studies have shown varied effect for COPD and asthma as prognostic ... -
Association between Motor Signs and Cognitive Performance in Cognitively Unimpaired Older Adults: A Cross-Sectional Study Using the NACC Database
(2022)Aiming to examine whether specific motor signs are associated with worse performance in specific cognitive domains among cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals, we performed a cross-sectional analysis of data from the ... -
Atrial fibrillation and cognitive function in patients with heart failure: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2017)Cognitive impairment and dementia are established complications of heart failure (HF) in adult patients and impair medication adherence and self-care. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is suggested to play an independent role in ... -
Atrial Fibrillation and Dementia: A Report From the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration
(2022)Growing evidence suggests a consistent association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and cognitive impairment and dementia that is independent of clinical stroke. This report from the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration ... -
Breast radiotherapy and early adverse cardiac effects. The role of serum biomarkers and strain echocardiography
(2019)Breast cancer radiotherapy has a clear benefit for both long-term survival and local recurrence rate. However, there is still much concern about the early radiation-induced heart toxicity. This article aimed to clarify the ... -
Cardio-Oncology Rehabilitation and Telehealth: Rationale for Future Integration in Supportive Care of Cancer Survivors
(2022)The direct toxicity of cancer treatment threatens patients and survivors with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease or adverse functional changes with subsequent progression of cardiovascular complications. An ... -
Chronic Heart Failure: Diagnosis and Management beyond LVEF Classification
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Clinical risk scores for the prediction of incident atrial fibrillation: a modernized review
(2021)Atrial fibrillation (AF) is considered the most common sustained arrhythmia. Major cardiovascular risk factors that have been identified to initiate and perpetuate AF include age, sex, arterial hypertension, heart failure, ... -
Coexisting morbidity burden in elderly hospitalized patients with and without heart failure
(2022)Introduction: Aging, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and heart failure (HF) increase the coexisting morbidity (CM) burden. This study compared the contribution of HF with this increase in elderly patients hospitalized for ... -
Cognitive impairment in heart failure
(2012)Cognitive impairment (CI) is increasingly recognized as a common adverse consequence of heart failure (HF). Although the exact mechanisms remain unclear, microembolism, chronic or intermittent cerebral hypoperfusion, and/or ... -
The Comparative Superiority of SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Response in Different Immunization Scenarios
(2022)Background: Both SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or vaccination result in the production of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. We aimed to compare the antibody titers against SARS-CoV-2 in different scenarios for antibody production. Methods: ... -
Comparison of Risk of Serious Cardiovascular Events after Hemorrhagic versus Ischemic Stroke: A Population-Based Study
(2022)Background Patients with ischemic stroke are considered a very high risk population for subsequent cardiovascular events and guidelines recommend intensive preventive strategies. However, there is no clear recommendation ... -
Comparison of Risk Scores for the Prediction of the Overall Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Ischemic Stroke: The Athens Stroke Registry
(2019)Background: Stratification of overall vascular risk in patients with ischemic stroke is important as it may guide management decisions. Currently available schemes have only modest prognostic accuracy. The TRA2°P score ... -
A constructive fuzzy representation model for heart data classification
(2021)The early detection of Heart Disease (HD) and the prediction of Heart Failure (HF) via telemonitoring and can contribute to the reduction of patients' mortality and morbidity as well as to the reduction of respective ...
