Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is an integral part of
the routine evaluation of patients presenting with symptoms of dyspnea or heart failure. The …

Heart failure (HF) has been singled out as an epidemic and is a staggering clinical and
public health problem, associated with significant mortality, morbidity, and healthcare …

Heart Failure Society (JHFS). The working committee for this project includes members and

Aging is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Here we
show that oral supplementation of the natural polyamine spermidine extends the lifespan of …

Background: Diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is
challenging and relies largely on demonstration of elevated cardiac filling pressures …

Background—Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous
clinical syndrome in need of improved phenotypic classification. We sought to evaluate …

Background: The diagnosis of heart failure may be challenging because symptoms are
rather nonspecific. Elevated left ventricular (LV) filling pressure may be used to confirm the …

Objective Circulatory shock is a life-threatening syndrome resulting in multiorgan failure and
a high mortality rate. The aim of this consensus is to provide support to the bedside clinician …

Objectives: This study sought to observe the relationship between left atrial (LA) strain and
left ventricular diastolic function and determine whether LA strain could be used to detect …
