Rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the subject of many clinical studies as it enables an effective therapy, preventing adverse progression of AMI and increasing survival rates. Recent stud...
A high prevalence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) has been found in China, but it rarely occurs with syncope. Studies have demonstrated that syncope due to NPC may be related to carotid sinus syndrome, gloss...
Angiotensin receptor blocker and a neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) has emerged as an innovative therapy for patients of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The purpose of this study was to assess...
Sleep disorders and depression were recognized as independent risk factors for heart failure, whether their interaction effects also correlated with the risk of heart failure remains elusive. This study was to...
The role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the early management of chronic cardiac inflammatory conditions is growing. Our case enlightens the benefit of quantitative mapping in the monitoring and treat...
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a rapidly growing disorder worldwide, especially in the Middle East. A higher incidence of coronary artery diseases requiring coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has been repo...
This study aims to investigate the value of myocardial work (MW) parameters during the isovolumic relaxation (IVR) period in patients with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD).
Beta-blockers are first-line clinical drugs for the treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF). In the guidelines for cardiac rehabilitation, patients with heart failure who do or do not receive beta-blocker the...
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) have been identified as factors associated with cognitive impairment (CI) but have not been studied in patients undergoing peritoneal dialys...
Patients with schizophrenia have an increased prevalence of risk factors for peripheral artery disease (PAD) and is expected to have an increased prevalence of PAD. PAD can be detected utilizing toe–brachial i...
Pericardial calcification is usually a marker of chronic diseases, and its occurrence in rapidly progressing malignant primary pericardial mesothelioma (PPM) is extremely rare. Therefore, this atypical imaging...
Transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) patients are often older and may be at risk for obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease (oeCAD). While ATTR-CM may cause small vessel coronary disease,...
