Mashup Score: 6Longitudinal Changes in Cardiac Troponin and Risk of Heart Failure Among Black Adults - 2 year(s) ago
Heart failure (HF) affects 6.2 million adults in the United States, and prevalence is expected to increase.1 Black adults are more likely to develop HF compared with other racial groups.2 Incident HF rates have increased more in Black vs White adults, mostly owing to the increase in HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which is associated with high morbidity and mortality and has few…

Mashup Score: 14Mortality and Heart Failure Hospitalization Among Young Adults With and Without Cardiogenic Shock After Acute Myocardial Infarction - 2 year(s) ago
Cardiogenic shock following acute myocardial infarction (AMI-CS) is a feared complication of acute coronary syndromes and is seen in approximately 5%–10% of patients following AMI1–4; it is the leading cause of AMI-related in-hospital mortality.5 Despite advancements in AMI care, AMI-CS continues to be prevalent and accounts for one-third of all cardiogenic shock (CS); associated mortality rates…

Mashup Score: 0Following Our Hearts: Prioritizing Self-care and Wellness - 2 year(s) ago
At the journal, we (Anu and Rob) meet virtually with the HFSA Director of Publishing, Meredith Hurt, every Friday at noon. After spending some time talking through logistics (“Are any papers held up in review? Did we receive that invited editorial?”), most of our time is spent brainstorming on our JCF strategy: ‘what’s our next innovation to improve the journal?’ and ‘how can we think…

Mashup Score: 1The Road Not Yet Traveled: Distinction in Critical Care Cardiology through the Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology Training Pathway - 2 year(s) ago
As the acuity, complexity, and illness severity of patients admitted to cardiac intensive care units have increased, the need to recognize critical care cardiology (CCC) as a dedicated subspecialty in cardiovascular disease has received increasing support. Differing viewpoints exist regarding the optimal pathway for CCC training. Currently, all proposed CCC training pathways involve permutations…

Mashup Score: 0Medical Therapy During Hospitalization for Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: The VICTORIA Registry - 2 year(s) ago
Current practice guidelines recommend that patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) be treated with multiple medications at target dosages derived from landmark randomized clinical trials, as tolerated.1–3 However, the use and dosing of these medications in routine practice typically falls short of levels achieved in clinical trials.4,5 As a way of improving…

Mashup Score: 8Omecamtiv mecarbil: Decisional Dilemmas & Regulatory Science – Opportunities for Improvement? - 2 year(s) ago
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is required to make decisions that can at times be controversial, for a myriad of reasons, on the benefits versus risks for medical products. This is understandable as science accelerates but with a suboptimal or more complex evidence generation system. For guidance on some of these decisions, the FDA occasionally asks an advisory committee to weigh in on…

Mashup Score: 0Blood coagulation disorders in heart failure: from basic science to clinical perspectives - 2 year(s) ago
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome caused by a structural or functional disorder of the heart which results in elevated intracardiac pressures and/or inadequate cardiac output during exercise or rest [1] [REF], with the worldwide prevalence of 1-2% [2]. HF is divided into three subtypes, based on the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): (i) HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF),…
