Structural and functional changes in cardiovascular system at arterial hypertension in persons exposed to ionising radiation
The purposes of this research were: (1) to carry out the comparative evaluation of indices of the morphofunctional condition of the cardiovascular system (CVS) in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) exposed to ionizing radiation, taking into account the occurrence of peripheral arterial atherosclerosis and the spread of traditional risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVD); (2) to ...

Exoskeleton instead of a wheelchair
At the moment, there’s a wide range of rehabilitation aids available for people with impaired mobility: diverse walkers, light and robust crutches, tons of various wheelchairs. All of them have certain flaws and weaknesses. For instance, state-of-the-art wheelchairs make it possible to go in for sports, travel at a rather high speed, and are user-friendly, but all of those aspects ...

Conceptual Considerations for Device-Based Therapy in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Abstract Acute decompensated heart failure remains the most common cause of hospitalization in older adults, and studies of pharmacological therapies have yielded limited progress in improving outcomes for these patients. This has prompted the development of novel device–based interventions, classified mechanistically based on the way in which they intend to improve central hemodynamics, ...

Remote Oncology Care: Review of Current Technology and Future Directions
Abstract Cancer patients frequently develop tumor and treatment-related complications, leading to diminished quality of life, shortened survival, and overutilization of emergency department and hospital services. Outpatient oncology treatment has potential to leave cancer patients unmonitored for long periods while at risk of clinical deterioration which has been exaggerated during the COVID19 ...

Diagnosing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has recently been recognized as the single greatest unmet need in cardiovascular medicine, overtaking heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and becoming the most common form of heart failure, with a prevalence that is increasing by 1% annually.[1] Despite this, there remains no gold standard in diagnosing HFpEF. Diagnosing ...

Physiology and Pathology of Coronary Microcirculation
The heart is a unique organ in many respects since its activity is mandatory to sustain life. The heart’s circulatory system and coronary flow regulation are highly adapted to the vital role of the heart in sustaining life and to everyday physiological challenges. Understanding coronary physiology is key for treating patients with ischemic heart disease in general, and ...

What is heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)?
Overview What is HFpEF? Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome in which patients have signs and symptoms of HF as the result of high left ventricular (LV) filling pressure, despite normal or near-normal LV ejection fraction (EF). Most patients with HFpEF also display normal LV volumes and an abnormal diastolic filling pattern (i.e, diastolic ...

Diabetes: Medications, Treatments, and Remedies
Lifestyle can have a big impact on how your body handles blood glucose and sometimes a change in habits and activities is all that’s needed to prevent or better manage diabetes. But if changes in lifestyle aren’t enough to keep blood sugar levels normal, your doctor may prescribe medication to help lower insulin levels or insulin therapy. We’ll discuss here the most often ...

The Evolving Role of Percutaneous Deep Venous Arterialization
The increasing incidence of peripheral artery disease (PAD) is occurring globally as populations age and rates of diabetes, obesity, and renal disease increase.1-3 Although most of these patients have no symptoms, when the disease progresses to its most advanced form, chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), there is a significant risk for limb loss. Despite the fact that our revascularization ...

Cost-Effectiveness of Percutaneous Deep Vein Arterialization for Patients with No-Option Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia: an Exploratory Analysis Based on the PROMISE I Study
Abstract Background. As the most advanced stage of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is associated with a high risk of lower-limb loss and mortality. Percutaneous deep vein arterialization (pDVA) is a promising new treatment alternative for CLTI patients who cannot be treated with conventional revascularization techniques. Our study objective was to ...
