Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] has emerged as an independent contributor to residual atherosclerotic cardiovascular risk. However, its association with angiographic disease burden among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains incompletely characterized.
To evaluate the relationship bet...

Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is a major mechanism of myocardial ischemia and adverse cardiovascular outcomes in patients with angina or dyspnea, both in the absence and in the presence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Because the coronary microcirculation cannot be visualized directly with routine an...

INTRODUCTION
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become an established treatment for severe aortic stenosis across an expanding risk spectrum. As indications extend to younger and lower-risk patients, post-treatment complications with implications for survival, quality of life, and valve durability requi...

Background/Objectives: Diet quality is a potentially modifiable determinant of heart failure (HF), yet evidence regarding its long-term association with HF incidence remains limited. This study examined the association between baseline diet quality and 20-year incident HF in the population-based ATTICA cohort. Methods:...

In HF patients, atrial shunting provides significant improvement in exercise capacity, quality of life, and hemodynamics, and the absence of clinical benefit necessitates further randomized studies focusing on specific phenotypes in order to optimize patient selection and prove clinical effect.

BACKGROUND
Heart failure (HF) remains a significant challenge in global healthcare, contributing to frequent hospitalizations and elevated mortality rates. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) provides a non-invasive method of assessing how the cardiovascular, respiratory, and musculoskeletal systems function.
