2 天之前 · Background Although the prognostic implications of severe mitral regurgitation (MR) are well recognised, they are less clear in moderate MR. We therefore explored the prognostic impact of both moderate and severe MR within the large National Echocardiography Database Australia cohort. Methods Echocardiography reports from 608 570 individuals were examined using natural language processing to ...

2024年12月16日 · Background Menopause is a timely opportunity to screen for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and intervene with healthier lifestyles. We investigated the association between premature/early menopause and the likelihood of CVD and whether a healthy lifestyle is associated with a lower likelihood of CVD in menopausal woman. Methods The Sax Institute’s 45 and Up Study prospectively recruited ...

Methods In the prospective population-based Rotterdam Study cohort, echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic ...

6 天之前 · Background Early heart failure (HF) diagnosis is crucial to ensure that optimal guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is administered to reduce morbidity and mortality. Limited access to echocardiography could lead to a later diagnosis for patients, for example, during an HF hospitalisation (hHF). This study aimed to compare the incidence and outcomes of inpatient versus outpatient ...

Background We evaluated the potential of circulating bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10) as a biomarker for atrial stress and remodelling in patients with heart failure (HF), in comparison to N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). We also assessed the predictive value of BMP10 for adverse clinical outcomes.

2025年1月15日 · Background Switching from a conventional to a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assay enables detection of smaller amounts of myocardial damage, but the clinical benefit is unclear. We investigated whether switching to a hs-cTnI assay with a sex-specific 99th centile diagnostic threshold was associated with lower 1-year death or new myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with ...
