UDFF and Auto pSWE accurately assess liver steatosis and fibrosis risk in obese patients with MASLD Open
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis. Fibrosis and steatosis assessment with vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE) and controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) r…

Amyloid-Specific Medication in Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Cardiovascular Outcome trials Open
ATTR-specific medication exhibits early salutary effects on blood biomarkers, functional capacity and quality of life. These effects translate into reductions in CV events and all-cause mortality after continued treatment.

Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis treatment improves outcomes after aortic valve replacement for severe stenosis Open
Background and Aims Concomitant aortic stenosis (AS) and transthyretin-associated cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) is an increasingly recognized cause of structural heart failure. Aortic valve replacement (AVR) improves prognosis in this popu…

Multiorgan Dysfunction and its Association With Congestion and Outcome in Aortic Stenosis Treated With TAVI Open
Biomarker abnormalities are highly prevalent in severe AS, influenced by congestion, and associated with impaired prognosis post-TAVI. Multiorgan dysfunction faces a particularly dismal outcome.

Growth Differentiation Factor 15 as a Marker for Chronic Ventricular Pacing Open
Background/Objectives: Right ventricular pacing is an effective and safe treatment option for patients experiencing symptomatic bradycardia. However, some individuals may develop left ventricular dysfunction as a consequence. Growth differ…

Insulin resistance and central obesity determine hepatic steatosis and explain cardiovascular risk in steatotic liver disease Open
Background Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has recently been proposed to replace non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and focus on patients with progressive disease due to the presence of metabolic dysfunction…

Investigation of hs-TnI and sST-2 as Potential Predictors of Long-Term Cardiovascular Risk in Patients with Survived Hospitalization for COVID-19 Pneumonia Open
Introduction: COVID-19 survivors reveal an increased long-term risk for cardiovascular disease. Biomarkers like troponins and sST-2 improve stratification of cardiovascular risk. Nevertheless, their prognostic value for identifying long-te…

Case report: Short-long-short mechanism triggering sustained ventricular tachycardia in a patient with a single-chamber ICD but inhibiting antitachycardia therapy Open
Introduction Short-long-short (SLS) sequences are an important cause of ICD pro-arrhythmia and can initiate both polymorphic and monomorphic ventricular tachycardias (VT). Depending on the programming of a single-chamber ICD, the interplay…

C - reactive protein is a promising indicator of ventricular arrhythmias in pacemaker patients Open
Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Ventricular tachyarrhythmias are the main reason for sudden cardiac death to date. Accordingly, tools for risk stratification for ventricular arrhythmias are paramount. Non…
