Oral DHA supplementation and retinopathy of prematurity: the Joinville DHA Clinical Trial Open
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of blindness in premature infants. The condition is associated with DHA deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effect of DHA supplementation on the occurrence of ROP in infants r…

Comparing indices of systemic inflammation and cardiac phenotype between hypertensive and non-hypertensive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Open
Background Arterial hypertension (HTN) is associated with excess mortality in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), but underlying mechanisms are largely elusive. Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between HT…

Interleukin-6 plasma levels predict mortality and heart failure events in cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis Open
Background Low-grade systemic inflammation is a key component in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF). In particular, the pleiotropic effects of interleukin-6 (IL-6) signaling are of interest as circulating IL-6 levels are associated …

Diagnostic accuracy of amyloid scintigraphy for the histopathological diagnosis of cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis – a retrospective Austrian multicenter study Open
Background Previous studies indicated that amyloid scintigraphy in combination with free light chain (FLC) assessment yields an excellent diagnostic accuracy for cardiac transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis (1). As a consequence, the diagnosis…
