The chronic coronary syndrome—Heart failure roundabout: A multimodality imaging workflow approach Open
Heart failure (HF) is a complex syndrome of considerable burden with high mortality and hospitalization rates. Approximately two-thirds of patients with HF have ischemic etiology, which makes crucial the identification of relevant coronary…

MTHFR Gene Polymorphisms Prevalence and Cardiovascular Risk Factors Involved in Cardioembolic Stroke Type and Severity Open
Background: Cardioembolic stroke (CES), generally known as the most severe subtype of ischemic stroke, is related to many factors, including diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HTN), smoking, hyperlipidemia and atrial fibrillation (AF). …

New Biomarkers in Screening Anthracycline-Induced Cardiotoxicity Only with Peripheral Blood Sampling Open
Because oxidative stress after administration of doxorubicin was identified as playing a central role in cardiac dysfunction, we hypothesized that the expression (or overexpression) of TLR2 and TLR4 contributes to the pathogenesis of doxor…
