Cardiovascular medicine and Sleep

Snoring Survivors: the impact of obstructive sleep apnea and continuous positive airway pressure use on in-hospital mortality, length of stay and costs among patients hospitalized with acute cardiovascular disease

Risk Factors in Takotsubo Syndrome

Relationship between Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Composite Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients Hospitalized with Takotsubo Syndrome: A Nationwide Analysis

Sleep problems and brain function

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), which includes conditions such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA), is an independent risk factor for cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), stroke, heart failure, arrhythmias, and other cardiovascular disorders.

Drug therapies in cardiac amyloidosis

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a form of infiltrative, restrictive cardiomyopathy that presents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in clinical practice. Historically, it has led to poor prognosis due to limited treatment options. 

Non-alcoholic fatty liver and cardiovascular events

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) increases cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk irrespective of other risk factors. However, large-scale cardiovascular sex and race differences are poorly understood. 

Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Cardiac Arrhythmias

Sleep disorders significantly contribute to cardiac arrhythmias. Mechanisms such as intermittent hypoxia, autonomic dysfunction, and intrathoracic pressure changes are central to this relationship. Strong evidence shows that severe Sleep breathing disorders substantially increases arrhythmia risk, while CPAP therapy effectively reduces this risk. 

Cannabis use and inflammatory bowel disease

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and dependent cannabis use or cannabis use disorder (CUD+) are independent risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Usage of cannabis for pain increased in IBD patients. However, associated cardiovascular safety remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) associated with CUD + in hospitalized IBD patients. 

Cardiovascular and Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with more intensive renal replacement therapy have been shown to alleviate the severity of sleep apnea, specifically obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Our study aims to analyze the trends in combined cardiovascular events among geriatric CKD patients, comparing those with and without OSA. 

Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist and heart attack

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) protects against ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients with heart attack. Controversy exists on the effects of GLP-1 on heart attack patients undergoing heart stent procedure or open heart surgery. 

Prevalence and predictors of pulmonary hypertension

In 2018, a total of 30,259,863 hospitalizations were reported in the US, of which 30,335 had a diagnosis of IPF and 8,075 of pulmonary hypertension. 

Clinical trials in Coronary artery disease and heart failure

The late-breaking science presented at the 2023 scientific session of the American Heart Association paves the way for future pragmatic trials and provides meaningful information to guide management strategies in coronary artery disease and heart failure (HF). 

Broken heart syndrome (BHS) and happy heart syndrome (HHS)

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is characterized by transient myocardial dysfunction triggered by both negative and positive emotional experiences, known respectively as broken heart syndrome (BHS) and happy heart syndrome (HHS).
