BACKGROUND: Current outcomes from catheter ablation for scar-dependent ventricular tachycardia (VT) are limited by high ...

Figure 1. Cause of death in prevalent dialysis patients in the United States, 2005 to 2007. 1 AMI indicates acute myocardial infarction; CHF, congestive heart failure; CVA, cerebrovascular accident.

Abstract We investigated the effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 receptor blockade with losartan on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in hypertensive patients (supine diastolic blood ...

RR indicates relative risk; SBP, systolic BP; IDACO, International Database on Ambulatory BP in Relation to Cardiovascular Outcome; sleep-through surge, 2-h morning SBP minus 1-hour lowest nighttime ...

In this issue of Circulation Research, Durgan et al sought to test the hypothesis that the time of day at which the heart is subjected to ischemia/reperfusion injury influences subsequent tissue ...

Arterial and venous thromboembolism are leading causes of morbidity and death worldwide. Despite significant advances in the diagnosis, prognostication, and treatment of thrombotic diseases over the ...

Ferroptosis is a programmed cell death caused by iron‐dependent accumulation and cellular lipid peroxides, which is different from apoptosis and pyroptosis. This study investigated the possible effect ...

Preclinical studies demonstrate a cardioprotective role of eosinophils in acute myocardial infarction. Yet clinical studies show conflicting correlations between blood eosinophil counts and acute ...

Allostatic load index (ALI) is often utilized to quantify the physiological response to stress. This study assesses the relationship between ALI and its impact on all-cause, cardiovascular, and stroke ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a key factor in the development of atherogenesis. METTL4 (methyltransferase-like protein 4) mediates N6- methyldeoxyadenosine (6mA) of mammalian mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA).
