The autonomic nervous system regulates all aspects of normal cardiac function, and is
recognized to play a critical role in the pathophysiology of many cardiovascular diseases. As …

Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome with multiple interactions between the
failing myocardium and cerebral (dys‐) functions. Bi‐directional feedback interactions …

Cognitive damage in heart failure (HF) involves different domains thus interfering with the
ability for single patient to self-care and to cope with treatment regimens, modifying …

Background: Patients with heart failure (HF) have been found to have cognitive deficits, but it
remains unclear whether these deficits are associated with HF or with aging or comorbid …

Although the mammillary bodies were among the first brain regions to be implicated in
amnesia, the functional importance of this structure for memory has been questioned over …

Aims Heart failure (HF) patients show significant lateralized neural injury, accompanied by
autonomic, mood and cognitive deficits. Both gray and white matter damage occurs and …

Rationale: Heart failure (HF) following heart damage leads to a decreased blood flow due to
a reduced pump efficiency of the heart muscle. A consequence can be insufficient oxygen …

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether dysfunction of specific
cognitive abilities is a predictor of impending mortality in adults with systolic heart failure …

Background: Patients with chronic heart failure (HF) have cognitive deficits in memory,
psychomotor speed, and executive function and poor health-related quality of life (HRQL) …

Although gray matter injury appears in heart failure (HF) patients, the presence, extent, and
nature of axonal injury impacting on cardiovascular regulation and other functions is …
