Abstract Aims The impacts of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C) as an anti‐inflammatory and C reactive protein (CRP) as inflammatory properties on the pathogenesis of heart failure were reported.

Abstract Background Patients with advanced heart failure or lung failure often experience significant changes in psychosocial needs, which may affect their quality of life, emotional wellbeing, and daily functioning.

Objectives: This study aimed to review and summarize the studies of nurse-coordinated home-based cardiac rehabilitation for patients with heart failure. Methods: The review was performed using Arksey and O’Malley’s scoping review framework.

Abstract Background A cornerstone of conventional dietary advice is the recommendation to replace saturated fatty acids (SFA) with mostly n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD).

Abstract Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasingly recognized as a major heart failure phenotype globally; however, its diagnosis is complex and is recommended to require integrated assessment of clinical features, echocardiographic abnormalities, and biomarkers.

Background/Objectives: Growth failure is a common complication in children with congenital heart disease (CHD), yet its underlying mechanisms and consequences remain incompletely understood.

Abstract Objective: To analyze pharmacotherapy provided in the hospital for MI indications and outcomes and to assess the protocols that are practiced for MI patients against the AHA and NICE guidelines.

This study tested the hypothesis that ITRI Biofilm prevents adhesion of the chest cavity. Combined extracorporeal shock wave (ECSW) + bone marrow-derived autologous endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) therapy was superior to monotherapy for improving heart function (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF]) in minipigs with ischemic cardiomyopathy (IC) induc…

BackgroundTaller adult height is associated with lower risks of ischemic heart disease in mendelian randomization (MR) studies, but little is known about the causal relevance of height for different subtypes of ischemic stroke.

In Study 1, children completed a food choice task in which the healthy option was paired with descriptive labels (healthy, tasty, popular) or emoticons (heart, muscle, smile). Study 2 examined the effects of specific emoticons (green smileys on healthy options alone, or both green smileys on healthy options and red smileys on unhealthy ones) on food choices.

Most kidney lymphatics arise from a Tie2+ endothelial origin shared by other organs. However, Osr1+ mesoderm generates approximately 15% of kidney lymphatics, without contributing to heart, mesentery, and skin lymphatics.

This patch elicits the comprehensive thermoregulatory network architecture of early hominins. The plantigrade heel infrastructure drives the developmental expansion of the gastrocnemius (the calf muscle), which structurally serves as a secondary hydraulic pump and open-air cooling radiator to sustain the left-sided heart mechanism under vertical gravitation…

Considerable research has been done in the past few decades to treat ischemic heart disease (stroke). Although drug therapies can improve heart disease and reduce mortality in heart failure, none is able to regenerate damaged heart tissue.

The study included data of 217 people with using short recordings in dynamics throughout the year (winter, spring, summer and autumn). The 1 st group consists of 64 patients with hypertension, the 2 nd group - 44 patients with coronary heart disease, the 3rd - 30 patients with cardiomyopathy and in the 4 th group of 28 patients with coronary artery disease…
